| ggupta | yes..anything which is expected to raise concern about the conflict on Interest..provide appropriate disclosures |
| JimM | What about a mere 25% ownership in the company? |
| bundy | Any ownerhip |
| oncewerepirates | What about a mere 20% ownership in the company? |
| johntan1979 | Even if you have 0.001 share ownership. The CFA Standard VI(A) does not specify the percentage ownership, so it means ANY amount of ownership. |
| MapherRdz | Yeah, any ownership must be disclosed not only if you have equal or more than the 30% |
I used your notes and passed ... highly recommended!
