A framework helps practioners apply the framework and analyzing the particular circumstances of each available alternative, investment professionals are able to determine the best course of action to fulfill their responsibilities in an ethical manner. 

Frameworks help professionals keep a long-term perspective and less of a self-interest perspective. The chances of bad judgment due to overconfidence bias are reduced vastly. Frameworks help avoid unknown unethical dilemmas. It also helps service and explain actions to all stakeholders.
