Jason Blackwell, CFA, works as an investment manager for Mega Capital, a large multinational brokerage firm. Mega Capital is based in a country whose applicable law is stricter than the CFA Institute Code and Standards, but does business with clients in a country whose applicable law is less strict than the Code and Standards. Blackwell decides to follow the requirements of the Code and Standards for clients in the less strict country, which is sufficient to also comply with that less-strict country’s local laws. While Blackwell is still employed at Mega, Lego Associates verbally asks Blackwell to review client portfolios during evenings and weekends for a fee. Blackwell gets written consent from his immediate supervisor at Mega to undertake this independent activity for a one-month trial basis.
