FRM Part I · FRM Exam Part I · GARP Code of Conduct

Which behavior by a GARP member would most clearly violate the Code of Conduct's requirement concerning professional integrity?

Copying another practitioner's published research into a report without attribution is the clear violation. The GARP Code requires members to respect others' intellectual property, give proper credit, and avoid plagiarism. Declining outside one's expertise, citing authors, and disclosing conflicts are all behaviors the Code encourages.

  1. ADeclining to give an opinion on a product outside the member's expertise
  2. BAttributing a model's methodology to its original authors when presenting it
  3. CCopying another practitioner's published research into a report without attributionCorrect
  4. DDisclosing a conflict of interest to a client before giving advice

Explanation

The Code requires members to give credit for others' work and not to plagiarize. Copying published research without attribution breaches this. The other actions are consistent with competence, attribution and disclosure duties.
