Correct Answer

B) Give the AFBA disclosure and avoid required use

Lines 250-254; 12 CFR 1024.15(b). The affiliate relationship must be disclosed, the borrower cannot be required to use the affiliate, and referral compensation cannot be disguised. Therefore, the correct response is "Give the AFBA disclosure and avoid required use".

Answer Options
A
Continue the activity because the borrower appears willing to proceed.
B
Give the AFBA disclosure and avoid required use
C
Use prior advertising disclosure approval as a substitute for the current Affiliated business arrangement ethics requirement.
