Key legal question
Whether the respondent's omission to disclose the foreign pension constituted fraud rather than only a LPC-specific offence.
Extracted holding
The omission was fraud: repeated annual notices created a duty to disclose, and the concealment of the Italian pension was a deceptive omission amounting to tromperie.
Extracted reasoning
Annual warnings expressly mentioned foreign pensions, so silence after those notices was a deceptive concealment by omission; no special guarantor discussion prevented characterizing the conduct as fraud.
