A conflict of interest is a manifestation of the moral hazard problem, particularly when a financial institution provides multiple services   and   the   potentially competing interests of those   services   may   lead to a concealment of information or dissemination of misleading information. A conflict of interest exists when a party to a transaction could potentially make gain from taking actions that are detrimental to the other party in the transaction.
