Read one explained question before requesting the PDF

From CFA Level I: Ethics and Professional Standards. This question and its case, when present, are included in the downloadable PDF.

Helena Arriaga, CFA, is the compliance director at Wrenfield Hotels Asset Management. To support the firm's compliance claim, Arriaga hires a third party to conduct an independent verification under the GIPS standards. The verification practitioner is required to:

  1. A.confirm that the firm's composite performance history covers at least ten years.
  2. B.evaluate policies and procedures across the entire firm rather than a single composite.
  3. C.certify that all individual account return calculations are accurate for the period.

Answer: B

Under the GIPS standards (which support compliance with Standard III(D) Performance Presentation), independent verification must be conducted on a firm-wide basis by an independent third party. Verification evaluates whether the firm has complied with all composite and pooled fund construction requirements firm-wide and whether its policies and procedures are designed to calculate and present performance in compliance with GIPS. Verification can never be performed for a single composite alone.

How to use this PDF in a study session

  1. 1. Attempt with a clear purpose

    Use the 20 standalone questions to sample ten topics and identify a method you cannot yet explain. Two questions in a topic are a starting point for investigation, not a reliable topic score.

  2. 2. Review the reasoning

    For a calculation, write the units and periods beside the formula. For a conceptual question, explain why your chosen statement fits and why the alternatives do not. Mark correct guesses for review alongside wrong answers.

  3. 3. Choose fresh follow-up work

    Return to the relevant learning outcome, work an explained example, then try a different problem. The PDF’s even topic distribution does not reproduce the official exam weights.

Keep a simple record: question number, the rule or case fact you missed, and the fresh exercise you will use to check the correction. Since the explained sample above is already visible, mark it as reviewed if you saw its answer before attempting the file.
