Question 12

Portia is a Dealing Representative with Highview Wealth Inc., a mutual fund dealer. Portia recommends the Stature Growth Fund to her client Clive. Which of the following CORRECTLY describes what Portia must do in order to satisfy her obligations under the Client Relationship Model (CRM) and Client Focused Reforms (CFR)?

A.Portia must calculate the net asset value per unit (NAVPU) and report it to Give in the trade confirmation.
B.Portia must mark the trade as ^unsolicited" if Clive wants to proceed with the trade and it is not suitable for him.
C.Portia must disclose the costs, expenses, and ongoing fees associated with the investment prior to the trade.
D.Portia must provide Clive with the pre-trade disclosure to address any material conflicts of interest with the trade.

Correct Answer: C

The Client Relationship Model (CRM) and Client Focused Reforms (CFR) are regulatory initiatives that aim to enhance the relationship between registered firms and their clients by imposing higher standards of conduct and disclosure. One of the obligations under CRM and CFR is to provide clients with information about the costs, expenses, and ongoing fees associated with an investment prior to executing a trade. This includes disclosing the management expense ratio (MER), sales charges, deferred sales charges (DSC), switch fees, short-term trading fees, and trailer fees of a mutual fund. This information helps clients understand the impact of fees on their returns and compare different investment options. Therefore, option C is correct regarding what Portia must do in order to satisfy her obligations under CRM and CFR. The other options are not correct.
Option A is false because Portia does not need to calculate the net asset value per unit (NAVPU) and report it to Clive in the trade confirmation; rather, the NAVPU is determined by the mutual fund manager and reported by the mutual fund dealer in the trade confirmation. Option B is false because Portia must not mark the trade as unsolicited if Clive wants to proceed with the trade and it is not suitable for him; rather, Portia must act in Clive's best interest and advise him against making an unsuitable trade or decline to execute it. Option D is false because Portia does not need to provide Clive with the pre-trade disclosure to address any material conflicts of interest with the trade; rather, Portia must disclose any material conflicts of interest with the client relationship as part of the relationship disclosure information (RDI) that is provided at account opening and updated as necessary.

Question 14

Charlotte has received proceeds from a deceased family member's estate. Charlotte decides to visit Malik, who's a Dealing Representative at her bank. She tells Malik, she does not know much about trading ETFs, but she wants to invest in ETFs. Charlotte says she feels fortunate to have this money and that she's not worried about losing it because she never planned on having any of it.
What element of the Know Your Client (KYC) information has Malik been able to learn?

A.Risk Profile
B.Risk Capacity
C.Risk Preference
D.Risk Tolerance

Correct Answer: C

The element of the Know Your Client (KYC) information that Malik has been able to learn is Charlotte's risk preference. KYC information is a collection of personal and financial information that registered firms and individuals must obtain from their clients before providing any investment advice or services. KYC information helps registered firms and individuals understand their clients' needs, goals, risk tolerance, time horizon, and personal circumstances, as well as comply with regulatory obligations such as suitability, disclosure, and reporting. One of the components of KYC information is risk preference, which is a measure of how much risk an investor is willing to take on in their portfolio. It reflects the investor's attitude, personality, and emotional factors that influence their investment decisions. Risk preference can be classified into three categories: risk-seeking, risk-averse, or risk-neutral. Based on Charlotte's statement that she does not know much about trading ETFs, but she wants to invest in ETFs, and that she feels fortunate to have this money and that she's not worried about losing it because she never planned on having any of it, Malik can infer that Charlotte has a high-risk preference or a risk-seeking attitude. This means that Charlotte is willing to take on more risk in exchange for higher potential returns, even if it means losing some or all of her money.
Therefore, option C is correct regarding what element of KYC information Malik has been able to learn. The other options are not correct regarding what element of KYC information Malik has been able to learn. Option A is false because risk profile is not an element of KYC information; rather, it is an outcome of KYC information that summarizes the investor's overall suitability for different types of investments based on their KYC information. Option B is false because risk capacity is not an element of KYC information; rather, it is a measure of how much risk an investor can afford to take on in their portfolio based on their financial situation and goals. Option D is false because risk tolerance is not an element of KYC information; rather, it is a measure of how much risk an investor can handle in their portfolio without losing sleep or changing their plans.
