An agent is bullish on XYZ stock and intends to recommend the stock to three of
her clients. Before the recommendations are made, the agent buys a large block of
XYZ stock for her own account. Then, once the clients' orders are completed, the
RR sells her shares for a large profit. The agent s action is referred to as:
A) Pegging
B) Making unsuitable recommendations
C) Front-running
D) A wash sale - CORRECT ANSWER - Answer is front-running
When a broker-dealer or agent buys or sells stock or options before the public
release of proprietary information concerning a large block order, it is considered a
prohibited practice that is referred to as front-running. As shown in this question,
the agent buys the stock and then recommends that her clients buy the same stock.
After the clients buy the stock, the RR would likely benefit from the potential
increase in the stock's price. Even if the client recommendations are suitable, it is
unethical for the RR to put her own interests before her clients' interests
