correct answer is A
As per FATF 40 recomm interpretive notes -
Competent authorities should maintain appropriate confidentiality for any request for
cooperation and the information exchanged, in order to protect the integrity of the investigation
or inquiry79, consistent with both parties’ obligations concerning privacy and data protection.
At a minimum, competent authorities should protect exchanged information in the same
manner as they would protect similar information received from domestic sources. Countries
should establish controls and safeguards to ensure that information exchanged by competent
authorities is used only in the manner authorised.
