Q 7 Β· Ethical and Professional Standards Β· Medium
Jennifer, a CFA charterholder, is a portfolio manager at a well-known investment firm. She has been managing a large pension fund for several years, consistently delivering strong returns. During a recent meeting with the pension fund's board of trustees, Jennifer was informed that the fund's investment policy statement (IPS) has been updated to include a new requirement for all portfolio managers to disclose any personal investments that could potentially conflict with the fund's holdings. Jennifer realizes that she has a significant personal investment in a company that is also held in the pension fund's portfolio. The company has been performing well, and Jennifer believes it will continue to generate strong returns. What should Jennifer do in this situation to comply with the CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct?
A. Jennifer should disclose her personal investment in the company to the pension fund's board of trustees and seek guidance on how to proceed in accordance with the updated IPS. If necessary, she should be prepared to divest her personal holding to avoid any potential conflicts of interest.
B. Jennifer should disclose her personal investment in the company to the pension fund's board of trustees but emphasize that her investment decisions for the fund have not been influenced by her personal holdings. She should argue that her strong track record of managing the fund should be sufficient evidence of her objectivity and professionalism.
C. Jennifer should maintain her personal investment in the company and continue to manage the pension fund's portfolio as usual, as long as she believes the company will continue to perform well. She can address the potential conflict of interest if it becomes a significant issue in the future.
AI Tutor - ask anything
The best course of action for Jennifer is to disclose her personal investment in the company to the pension fund's board of trustees and seek guidance on how to proceed in accordance with the updated IPS. If necessary, she should be prepared to divest her personal holding to avoid any potential conflicts of interest. As a CFA charterholder, Jennifer is bound by the CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct, which requires her to place the integrity of the investment profession and the interests of clients above her own personal interests. By disclosing her personal investment and seeking guidance from the board, Jennifer demonstrates her commitment to transparency and ethical behavior. Maintaining her personal investment in the company while managing the pension fund's portfolio could lead to a conflict of interest, as her personal financial interests may influence her investment decisions for the fund. This would be a violation of the CFA Institute's Standards of Professional Conduct. While Jennifer's strong track record of managing the fund is commendable, it does not negate the potential conflict of interest posed by her personal investment. Disclosing the investment but arguing that her past performance is sufficient evidence of her objectivity and professionalism would not fully address the ethical concerns raised by the situation.

Common questions

CFA Level 3 training - answers before you start

How is this different from a video course or bootcamp? +
Video courses deliver the same content to every student regardless of what they already know. Our AI starts with a diagnostic, then builds a personalised roadmap around your specific gaps. The AI coach teaches each concept interactively through mindmaps. And the live AI tutor beside every practice question explains exam traps and manager-thinking logic that video courses never cover.
What does the AI mindmap coach actually do? +
For each concept in your roadmap, the AI builds an interactive mindmap showing how ideas connect. You confirm understanding concept by concept, and the AI won't move on until your mastery score hits the threshold. It also asks you to apply the concept to scenarios so you understand the "why" - not just the definition.
What can I ask the AI tutor during practice? +
Anything about the question. Most common: "Simplify this explanation", "What's the exam trap in option A?", "Why does the exam prefer this over that?", "Explain this from the manager's perspective", "What's the related concept?". The AI tutor is trained specifically on CFA Level 3's decision framework - not just general knowledge.
What's the difference between the 3 plans? +
Monthly ($49/mo) - full training system, cancel anytime. Good if your exam is soon or you want to try it first. Lifetime ($199 one-time) - lifetime access, no recurring charge. Best for most people. Pass Mode ($599) - everything plus daily AI study plan, weakness repair engine, and free extension until you pass.
How long does the full CFA Level 3 training take? +
Depends on your diagnostic results. Most students put in 1–2 hours per day. 2–3 weak domains: expect 10–12 weeks. 1 weak domain: 4–6 weeks. The AI gives you a personalised timeline on Day 1.
I failed CFA Level 3 once - will this help me pass the retake? +
Yes - our second-attempt pass rate is 91%. The diagnostic pinpoints exactly which domains cost you the first attempt. You won't re-study everything - the AI targets only your real gaps. Most retakers are exam-ready in 4–6 weeks. The mindmap coaching re-teaches the exact concepts where manager-thinking tripped you up before.
Is CFA Level 3 hard? How long does training realistically take? +
CFA Level 3 has a global pass rate of 56% - more than half of candidates fail first attempt. The difficulty isn't content volume, it's question style: the exam tests managerial thinking, not definitions. With our AI training, most students are exam-ready in 8–12 weeks studying 1–2 hours a day. Retakers or candidates with strong backgrounds: as little as 4–6 weeks.
What's the best way to pass CFA Level 3 in 2026? +
Candidates who pass share three things: they start with a diagnostic (not a textbook), they practise decision-making not memorisation, and they use adaptive practice tests that mirror the real CAT-format exam. Every question has two technically correct answers; the exam picks the one a manager would choose. Our system is built around exactly this.
Is Edureify a better alternative to a CFA Level 3 bootcamp? +
CFA Level 3 bootcamps typically cost $1,500–$4,000, run for 5 days, and deliver the same lecture to every attendee. You leave with notes and a question bank - no personalisation, no follow-up. Edureify starts with a diagnostic so training is built around your gaps from Day 1. For most candidates, our system gets better outcomes at a fraction of the bootcamp cost - and you study around your job instead of taking a week off.
