In this lecture, you will get an introduction to one of the most important areas of the CFA Level 1 Exam i.e. Ethics, which is covered from LOS 56 to 60. The instructor in this 6 minutes video highlights the importance of Ethics, it's topic area weightage, how much you should score at the minimum, and ethics' pivotal role in passing the exam. You will also understand that there are three sections in which Ethics can be divided: Code of Ethics, Standards of Professional Conduct, and Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS). In the end, the instructor shares a mnemonic to memorize the seven standards of professional conduct.
Discussion of the seven standards starts here. Out of the seven standards, the first four: (I) Professionalism, (II) Integrity of the Capital Markets, (III) Duty to Clients, and (IV) Duty to Employers are discussed. It is recommended to memorize these standards and read stories from the book to understand the cases in which they are violated.
Out of the seven standards, the last three: (V) Investment Analysis, Recommendations, and Actions, (VI) Conflicts of Interest, and (III) Responsibilities as a CFA Institute Member or CFA Candidate. Make sure to read the answers first before attempting the question in the ethics section and target at least 14% marks out of 15%
