标题: Level 1 CFA Candidate- right or wrong? [打印本页] 作者: Elliotbay 时间: 2011-7-13 15:45 标题: Level 1 CFA Candidate- right or wrong?
Hi
I am not very sure about whether we can say that " I have become a level 1/2/3 CFA candidate". Is that acceptable?
I also have another question related to GIPS
To comply with GISP, private equity investments must be valued according to specific guidelines contained in Appendix D.... Exceptions in which private equity investments can be valued according to the main body of GIPS include
a-Evergreen funds and open end funds
b-closed end funds and venture capital investments
c-Venture capital investment and mezzanine financing
Anyone could help?
Thanks作者: dontknow1987 时间: 2011-7-13 15:45

I think its ok to say "I've become a Level x candidate"
The answer to the GIPS question is A. Read the Private Equity section and its spelled out pretty clearly.作者: Flok 时间: 2011-7-13 15:45
"A" makes sense bc evergreen and open fund get continuous contributions and GIPS makes managers define and revalue at "large" cash flows, which could potentially mean continuous (read: $$$$) pricing of funds assets作者: Bulla564 时间: 2011-7-13 15:45
I don't think it's okay to say I have become CFA level 2 candidate, as "candidate" refers to those who are preparing for the exams in the current year. Let's say if A passes level 2 two years ago, he is not allowed to say, "A is a CFA level 2 candidate", as he is not appearing for the exam this year, or "A has become level 2 candidate", because candidate is not really a designation like CFA charter holders. However, he can always refer that he had passed CFA level 2 exam two years back, or he has passed level 2 exam 2 years back in the first attempt itself.作者: evolsteevol 时间: 2011-7-13 15:45
I'm pretty sure you can if you are planning on taking the next part soon, starting on page 145 in the cfai ethics and quant book discusses correct and incorrect uses.
I beleive you can always say what parts you have passed however even if you're not sitting for the next part.

I am not saying you can not say that but how you say that is important.作者: MonkeyBusiness 时间: 2011-7-13 15:46
