About the CFA® Program
The CFA® Program is a graduate-leve curriculum and examination program for investment professionals-especially security analysts, money managers and investment advisors. Established in 1962, the CFA® Program set the global standard for investment knowledge, standards and ethics. Earning the credential can serve as a passport for entry to or advancement within the profession or for work in other countries. It tells clients, employers and colleagues that the charter holder has mastered a rigorous curriculum covering a broad range of investment topics and is committed to the highest ethical standards in the profession.

Subjects Tested
The CFA® Curriculum is grounded in the practice of the investment profession.
The CFA Institute periodically conducts a practice analysis, known as the Candidate Body of Knowledge (CBOK) involving CFA® charterholders around the world to determine the knowledge, skills, and abilities that are relevant to the profession.

The CBOK is organized into four major topic areas that include: ethical and professional standards, tools and inputs for investment valuation and management, asset valuation, and portfolio management and performance presentation.

The CFA® Curriculum

Level 1

Program emphasizes tools and inputs, in addition to an introduction to asset valuation and portfolio management techniques.

Level 2

Program emphasizes asset valuation, as well as applications of the tools and inputs in asset valuation.

Level 3

Program focuses on the portfolio management process and emphasizes the application and synthesis of the methodologies utilized in Levels 1 and 2.

Ethical and professional standards are emphasized at all three levels of the curriculum
