Gоrdоn is аn investment representаtive аt Wallsend Financial Services, a mutual fund dealer. Wallsend requires its emplоyees to disclose outside business activity for review and approval by the firm. While working for Wallsend, Gordon serves as a director on four outside boards. Gordon gets approval from Wallsend for three of the boards positions, but the fourth is for a charity called Born in the 50s to help homeless children that is run by his father. Gordon does not submit the position for approval because it is a volunteer role that he has taken only temporarily to help his father. Wallsend eventually discovers Gordon’s service on the Born in the 50s board. Wallsend is in the process of reducing their workforce, and after confirming that Gordon failed to disclose his involvement on the additional board, they terminate him for violation of their policy. Now unemployed, Gordon receives his Professional Conduct Statement (PCS) from CFA Institute. Is Gordon required to disclose the internal investigation by Wallsend concerning his nondisclosed service as a director on the Born in the 50s board? [Professor’s note: PCS contains six questions and the second question requires a yes response if you have you been “the subject of any investigation (internal or external) in which your professional conduct or activities were questioned or at issue.”]
