Answer:

  • First Fidelity can disclose such information as Embezzlement is a serious financial offence
  • First Fidelity must disclose The information

Step-by-step explanation:

First Fidelity insurance is obligated by law to pass/give accurate information about an employee's abilities and characteristics as regards to performance at the place of work regardless if he/she is a current employee or a former employee.

Fifth Bank calling First Fidelity about an ex- employee that they would like to employ is one step that Fifth Bank would take in order to determine the credibility and trustworthiness of their prospective staff and First Fidelity disclosing the information that Margaret Gessner embezzled funds while working with them will help Second Fifth Bank make the best decision as regards employing her
