Sarah, CFA, is promoting her new investment management firm by issuing
an advertisement. Which of these items is least likely a violation of the
professional designation Standard The advertisement states that:
A. she passed three exams covering ethics, financial statement analysis,
asset valuation, and portfolio management and that she is a member of the local
society. Sarah signs the advertisement followed by the letters CFA in oversized
and bold strike letters.
B. she passed three 6-hour exams on her first attempts over the minimum
period of one and a half years. Knowledge tested include ethics, financial
statement analysis, asset valuation, and portfolio management. In addition, she
is a member of the local society.
C. because of her extensive CFA training she will be able to achieve better
investments results than non-CFA managers since she is one of very few
professionals to have been awarded this designation.
