Suggested Answer:E🗳️
Under Standard IV (B.5), members shall preserve the confidentiality of information communicated by clients within the scope of client-member or employer- member relationship, except when the member receives information concerning illegal activity on the part of the client. When there is an investigation under PCP, members shall provide information about a client in support of the investigation. Settlement agreements with confidentiality clauses do not prohibit members from cooperating with a PCP investigation.
The Standard IV (B.5), Preservation of Confidentiality states that a CFA Institute member or candidate must maintain the confidentiality of client information and may only use that information for the benefit of the client.

The member or candidate must also take reasonable steps to ensure that confidential client information is protected from unauthorized use or disclosure by individuals under their supervision.
