Overview

Mission

Our mission is to lead the investment profession globally by promoting the highest standards of ethics, education, and professional excellence for the ultimate benefits of society. Our society is an association of local investment professionals. Consisting of portfolio managers, security analysts, investment advisors, and other financial professionals, we promote: ethical and professional standards within the investment industry; encourage professional development through the cfa program and continuing education; facilitate the exchange of information and opinions among people within the local investment community and beyond, and; work to further the public's understanding of the cfa designation and investment industry. As one of cfa institute member societies, our society connects members to a global network of investment professionals.

What it reported doing in 2024

Leadership development: with a rotating board, local members of the investment community are given an opportunity to serve as either a board or committee member. Cfai offers various leadership training conferences that are typically free of charge to volunteer and often to the society. Cfa test prep: we offer a mock exam for candidates in conjunction with kaplan, on of the leading exam prep companies. Job board: we encourage local employers to inform us of job opportunities. They are posted on our website and included in e-mails to members.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue.
