标题: Work Experience for Charter [打印本页]

作者: burning0spear    时间: 2011-7-13 05:24     标题: Work Experience for Charter

Hi All,

I have seen the list of profiles posted at CFAI website which can be considered for getting charter. But they are too vague.

Are software developers in "finance" domain good enough for this?
For instance somebody working for Thomson Reuters or Bloomberg or Factset or Dow Jones Newswires or any software company involved completely in this domain.

Any body has experience or know somebody with similar case? Please comment.

Thanks,
APCAC

The best answer you can get is from CFA institute. Is developing an Iphone "finance" app really investment related?

If you are developing an application for iphone or anything, and using some modelling (may be your own), and pricing some complex derivatives out there, then why not !!! I hope yes..

What about ya all worry about how to pass these three super easy exams first??
作者: lc26mizzou    时间: 2011-7-13 06:30

the easy answer is none of us know and we are not going to admit ;-)

if you want, have a look in level-3 forum or ask CFA insitute

just to share my perspective, I am a yankee technology div guy, but after 8yrs in s/w development I dont think i will be ready to move to other domain and start from scratch. I know techies in the bank who have completed all three levels but cant use the charter due to the experience fulfillment issue, but they are very effective in their work and are the bridge between the FO and core techies..

'm into CFA to do my job effectively and eyeing that Project Manager's corner cabin

this is why the charter is diluted.
