CFA Institute Access Scholarship Program for Students Worldwide in the USA for 2022/2023

The CFA Institute Access Scholarship Program is developed to make the programs more available to individuals who may not be able to afford the full program fees.

About the Organization

CFA Institute is a global, not-for-profit professional organization that equips investment professionals with finance education. It seeks to advance the standards in ethics, education, and professional excellence in the global investment industry.

The organization offers the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation, the Certificate in Investment Performance Measurement (CIPM), the Certificate in ESG Investing, and till December 2021, the Investment Foundations Certificate.

CFA Institute provides resuming education conferences, seminars, webcasts, and publications to allow members and other parties to stay present on developments in the investment industry.

The organization also manages the CFA Institute Research Challenge for university students and the Research Foundation of CFA Institute.

The headquarters of CFA Institute is in Charlottesville, Virginia, United States, with other offices in New York City, Washington, D.C., London, Hong Kong, Mumbai, Beijing, Shanghai, and Abu Dhabi.

The existing President and CEO are Margaret Franklin. In the year 1947, four financial analyst societies—Boston, Chicago, New York, and Philadelphia — teamed with the intent of encouraging the exchange of ideas and supporting the welfare of their profession.

Then in 1962, some of these financial analysts formed the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation and set a code of conduct. The following year, the profession was regularized when 284 candidates sat for the first CFA exam and 268 CFA charters were awarded.

Hence in 2004, the Association for Investment Management and Research voted to change its name to the CFA Institute. In February 2019, The United States Department of Justice declared it will fine CFA Institute more than $320,000 for discriminating against skilled American workers by hiring temporary foreign workers through the H-1B visa program.

Furthermore, given the COVID-19 pandemic, CFA Institute has canceled the majority of the examinations around the world due to the lack of examination facilities in 2020.

By 2021, all examinations were shifted to computer-based testing for the three levels of the CFA program. In March 2021, CFA Institute established the Certificate in ESG Investing due to the increasing volume of environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) factors in socially responsible investing.

Worths:

The Access Scholarship Program covers the one-time CFA Program enrollment fee (if applicable) and reduces the exam registration fee (includes access to the curriculum eBook) to US$250.
