Taken from one to the practise exams I'm doing at the moment:

A client calls up his broker wanting to sell his large holding of 'ABC' shares. The broker knows that ABC is a client of the firm and is just about to announce a takeover bid for another firm. What should the broker do?

A Delay the execution until after an announcement has been made
B Execute the order as normal regardless of what he knows
C Tell the compliance department that there has been a breach of the firm's Chinese walls.
D Refuse the business because of the corporate activity
