The investment decision-making process is the professional practice of financial analysis, investment management, securities analysis, or other similar activities.
CFA? CANDIDATES ARE REQUIRED TO SPEND AT LEAST 40 PERCENT OF THEIR TIME IN THESE ACTIVITIES TO ACCRUE THE REQUIRED PROFESSIONAL WORK EXPERIENCE.
