Why Hire a CFA® Charterholder?

You want to recruit employees that represent the best in the investment management industry—employees who are highly skilled and who are bound by the highest ethical standards.

Why Hire a CFA Charterholder

Let's Build a Better World for Investing

There are many reasons why leaders across the investment industry trust their firms’ futures to CFA® charterholders.

  • Earning the CFA® charter is a highly selective process. Fewer than one in five candidates become a CFA charterholder.
  • It takes an average of 1,000+ hours of rigorous study, along with four years of professional experience and successful completion of the CFA® Program exam, to earn the distinction of being called a Chartered Financial Analyst® charterholder. 
  • All CFA charterholders are required to annually attest to their compliance with the CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct
  • The CFA® credential is the professional standard of choice for more than 31,000 investment firms worldwide.

You can hire people with an MBA, but you don't necessarily know that one MBA is the same as another MBA. If you hire investment professionals with a CFA designation, you absolutely have confidence at the level of qualification.
