CFA program helps nation's financial industry achieve sustainable growth

An increasing number of qualified financial professionals in China, supported by the CFA Program, are helping the industry to achieve sustainable development, said Bjorn Forfang, deputy CEO of the CFA Institute, the global association of investment management professionals.

"Getting CFA designation is not just good for your career, but helps build a more sustainable financial business in China," Forfang told China Daily.

The CFA Institute is known for its CFA Program, which grants the CFA charter, a designation globally recognized as the gold standard in investment management. To become CFA charterholders, candidates must satisfy a series of requirements, including passing three levels of exams and obtaining four years of relevant work experience.
