RE5 practice question with a worked answer. This is one of hundreds of FSCA RE5 questions in the RegulatoryExams question bank.

  1. a) Honesty
  2. b) Integrity

Why this is the answer

A conviction for fraud is a direct breach of 'Honesty' and 'Integrity' (FAIS Act, Sec 8(1)(a)). It also means the representative is not of 'Good Standing'. The failure to disclose it is also a breach of honesty. However, this event does not directly relate to her 'Competence' (which is about qualifications, exams, and experience).
