1.Aziza works for a multinational investment adviser based in the USA, she has US citizenship since 2020. She lives and works as a registered investment adviser in the tiny, but wealthy, island nation. The securities laws state that no investment adviser registered and working in that country can participate in initial public offerings (IPOs) for the adviser’s personal account. Aziza, believing that as an American citizen working for a U.S.-based company she should comply only with U.S. law, has ignored this Karrambian law. In addition, Aziza believes that, as a charter holder, as long as she adheres to the Code and Standards requirement that she disclose her participation in any IPO to her employer and clients when such ownership creates a conflict of interest, she is meeting the highest ethical requirements.
