CFA + FRM + CAIA= Confusion作者: PalacioHill 时间: 2013-8-23 11:41
Hey there are many more. It’s just on AF that there are 3 main tabs.
There will always be someone who has more certificates, who is better and smarter than you.

CFA + FRM + CAIA = MARCIA, CAFF (Marcia Gibbs, is CAFF’s Biological Farming program director)作者: hassan 时间: 2013-8-23 11:46
I wouldn’t bother with CAIA - unless you want to be a marketer.作者: segalm 时间: 2013-8-23 11:48
Interesting! Life isn’t about certificates. In the pond, there will be plenty fishes. A super guy goes for the biggest fish in the ocean and flaunts it to the world. Others may catch plenty smaller fishes, but they will never be rated as the one who got the big fish.
Long and short……in your profession, find the biggest (most respected) certification and that should be it.作者: Iginla2011 时间: 2013-8-23 11:51
Unless your Asian, this is a waste of time.作者: redskins44 时间: 2013-8-23 11:54
Yeah definitely a waste of time and overkil. Maybe two certifications max. Have the CFA as your main certification and then something in a niche area like a CTP or something (but only if that is an area you work in). I would maybe consider the PRM because after you are a charterholder you can bypass the first two exams I believe. Maybe LIFA as well because you can move right to the third exam at your own choice, though I have no clue how much credibility the certification will have as it is relatively new. Unless it is something that won’t take a substantial time commitment or relates to what you do on a day to day basis, I wouldn’t bother with it.作者: Wendy01 时间: 2013-8-23 11:56
I’m a caia charter holder and most like soon to be cfa charter holder. Almost definitely a waste of time.作者: meghanjackson 时间: 2013-8-23 11:59
Focus your time on building your own business and earning the mega pay, instead of reading and reading; only to slave away for one business owner, and end up a miserable pensioner.作者: cfa10yrplan 时间: 2013-8-23 12:01

Simple, CFA + FRM + CAIA = George W. Bush作者: dvilayphet 时间: 2013-8-23 12:06
cfa is good enough. i saw many caia chartholders in the fof industry. if you are interested in this route go for it.作者: bpdulog 时间: 2013-8-23 12:09
Salary(3 charters) < sum (Salary(CFA), Salary(CAIA), Salary (FRM) ) –> lession: get max 2 of them.作者: ASSet_MANagemen 时间: 2013-8-23 12:11
Honestly though, at some point, don’t people want to learn something different?
I just don’t understand why people will spend their life studying for programs so similar. It’s one thing that they need it for work but it’s another that you need diversity of skills to be a COMPETENT CANDIDATE.
If you spend so much time and money on all those letters, you may as well start a business, work for yourself and build a business gut!
Why work for somebody else who is unlikely to have all those credentials? and who would ask for all those credentials anyway???作者: sesewater 时间: 2013-9-10 17:20
