Question: Lana Sands, CFA, is an analyst with the trust department of Sunshine Bank. The department's portfolio managers use a proprietary model to select stocks. Sunshine has been purchased by Deku bank, which does not plan to use Sunshine's model after completing the purchase. A few weeks before the Bright Star/ Deku Bank merger date, Sands downloads the model to her laptop and modifies the bottle for her own use. Do Sands' actions violate the Standards of Professional Conduct?
