Course Description:

'' The CAIA Charter is the professional designation for alternative investment specialists that demonstrates an individual’s commitment to the alternative investment profession and mastery of its concepts and practices. The designation is quickly becoming recognized by institutions, regulators, and investors as the seal of distinction in the alternative investment industry.

The CAIA program is designed to provide finance professionals with an extensive foundation of knowledge in traditional and alternative investment vehicles, including hedge funds, venture capital, commodities, managed futures, real estate, and private equity.

The CAIA assures that employees have:

A comprehensive alternative investment background
The ability to gain and maintain client confidence and trust
High standards of professionalism
The CAIA program’s diverse curriculum appeals to a broad group of candidates ranging in experience from the novice to the seasoned professional. Investment advisors, consultants and analysts, fund managers and administrators, accountants, lawyers, academics, as well as administrative staff and compliance and back office personnel.

Syllabus

To become a CAIASM charter holder, each candidate must pass two levels of exams and have at least one year of financial experience. The curriculum, which is regularly revised, consists of two levels of exams. Level I uses investment analytics to examine the fundamentals of each alternative class, while Level II applies these analytics within an asset allocation and decision making framework. Both levels incorporate segments on ethics and professional conduct.

Level I

Candidates study the application of basic analytical tools, as well as the fundamentals of alternative investment vehicles. In addition to reviewing essential concepts in finance, investments and statistics, candidates learn to differentiate between the various AI trading strategies and performance measurements.

Level II

The Level II curriculum is roughly divided into two sections - alternative investments and integrated topics. Candidates must apply the skills and knowledge from Level I to gain a deeper understanding of issues involved in each of the areas of alternative investments: hedge funds, managed futures, commodities, real estate, and private equity. The integrated topics section is updated annually to reflect the latest developments in issues common to all areas of alternative investments, such as new regulatory developments and advances in risk management techniques.
