PRO EXED - CFA® Programs

Introducing CFA®

The CFA® Program, administered by CFA® Institute, is a graduate-level study and examination program intended to expand your working knowledge and skills relating to investment decision-making. Successful completion of the program and its requirements will earn you the CFA® designation, one of the profession's most valued symbols of distinction and excellence, as well as highest ethical and professional standards.

The CFA® program is divided into three levels, each of which concludes with an examination. The Institute offers the Level I exam twice a year: in June and December. The exams for Levels II and III are offered once annually in June. Candidates who fail to pass one of the exams cannot advance to the next level, though they may repeat the examination.

The CFA® Program curriculum is based on the CFA® Institute Candidate Body of Knowledge, which emphasizes current investment theory and practices – the practical knowledge and skills essential to high-level performance in investment-related functions. As in a postgraduate program, the course work and examinations go beyond a fundamental, introductory level and are designed for those who are prepared for master's-level work. Topics include:asset valuation, portfolio management, equity debt, derivatives, alternative investment, financial statement analysis, corporate finance...
