Haha, doing this incorrectly could be a violation.

Hmm... but the CFA is not a certification, it's a CHARTER. ;-)

Hmm, actually now that I think about it, "CFA Charter" sounds kind of weird. For instance, "I have a Chartered Financial Analyst Charter". It makes more sense to say "I am a Chartered Financial Analyst", which is inexplicably banned.

When I try to explain the hair-splitting difference between a Certification and a Charter, I like to point out that a Certification says that you've completed something, whereas a Charter is a letter giving you the right to do something. What does a Chartered Financial Analyst Charter entitle you to do? Well, mostly it entitles you to put CFA after your name on your business card, subject to your paying the fees and not doing anything naughty.
