"I'd say when the information is incomplete, depending on its gravity. I'm pretty good at anticipating the needs of my clients. So, unless I have the complete picture, and take the course of action I know I should take, I'm not going to bring it up until I have something worthy to present. Otherwise i might incite unnecessary panic where they'll make ill-informed decisions based on half-formed information I might present. I pride myself on my clear communication and transparency, and they they'll ask me questions I should already have the answers to. If I'm going to distract them from the pressing concerns they face, I'm gonna make sure I've lightened the load as much as I can first."

This is a tricky question that aims to reveal your scope of the big picture, to reveal more about you, your integrity, and your regard for your customer's greater interests. Honesty is more so a study of perception and the semantics of your answer may reveal the level of your self-perception, your hidden intentions, and your integrity, so choose your words carefully. Attest to your integrity, and what your word means to you. Revisit your core values. If you have faced a situation where you found yourself holding back information from your clients to protect their assets or their interests, share that, taking these points into consideration when formulating your answer.
