Which of the following statements is NOT true relating to Standard IV (B.3) - Fair Dealing?
Answer(s): B
The operative word is "fairly," not "equally."

The information is potentially quite valuable and giving to one client before another in a partisan fashion is a violation of the AIMR code of Ethics.
