特许金融分析师®(CFA)考试10门科目/章节详解
回头想想学习CFA也有两年的时间了,身边的人越来越多地加入到CFA®考试的大军中,究竟一个CFA®考试或者证书能带给我们什么,能学到什么?
从学习的角度来讲,CFA主要是为未来希望从事股票分析师,基金工作者们定制的。
如果大家想大体学习了解目前市场上的金融工具与金融市场,CFA也是推荐的。
CFA涉及的广度很宽,固定收益,衍生品,股票分析研究,投资组合等等(具体的内容在后面的课程介绍中会有概要说明)。
对于数学不好的同学门也是个福音,CFA数学涉及的比较浅显。当然如果有些同学数学很强又对风险管理或者计量金融感兴趣的话,请去参考FRM或者是CQF。
至于如何去应试准备考试,我就不发表意见了,本人从小就反感考试,考试技巧复习方法方面也没有什么好经验。
10门课程可以分成3个框架:
基础框架:比如像道德,数量,以及经济学。
财务主导的框架:财务报表分析,公司理财,权益。
