Ganga Funds IFSC proposes to appoint Mr. Iyer as a key managerial person. Iyer was recently convicted by a court for an offence involving moral turpitude. Which statement is correct?
The appointment should not be made. Key managerial personnel of an FME must be fit and proper, and a conviction for an offence involving moral turpitude counts against that standard. Experience, board confidence or an investor-type limitation does not cure it.
- AHe may be appointed if he has ten years of fund management experience
- BHe may be appointed if the board passes a resolution recording its confidence in him
- CHe may be appointed only if the fund is limited to accredited investors
- DHe is unlikely to meet the fit and proper requirement, so the appointment should not be madeCorrect
Explanation
Key managerial personnel of an FME must be fit and proper persons. A conviction for an offence involving moral turpitude counts against that standard. Experience, board confidence or an accredited-investor investor base cannot override it.
