Members have an obligation to ensure that their firms establish compliance procedures requiring all employees who disseminate investment recommendations or actions to treat clients fairly. The number of people privy to an investment recommendation should be limited. The amount of time that lapses between the decision and the dissemination of the recommendation should be shortened. Guidelines must be established to prohibit persons who have prior knowledge from discussing a pending recommendation. Trading activities should be monitored and controlled. Supervisors should review accounts on a regular basis to ensure that no client is being given preferential treatment.
