Stock Ownership
Example

There are various ways you could experience a conflict of interest between the work you perform and a financial interest you or others hold. Stock ownership is one example.
If you, your spouse, or minor child owned $30,000 of stock in a company that would be affected by your job duties, you would have a conflict of interest and would not be able to perform those duties until certain measures were taken to resolve the conflict. This would be true even if the extent of any gain or loss were small or unknown.
