CFA Program Partner

The Masters in Finance (MiF) is a recognised CFA Program Partner. Below are details of what this means for you, the School, and the CFA.

What does being a CFA Program Partner mean?

• The CFA Program Partner initiative is a relationship between CFA Institute and select colleges and universities around the world that have embedded a significant percentage (70%) of the CFA Program Candidate Body of Knowledge into their degree programs.
  
  
• CFA Institute uses the "CFA Program Partner" designation to recognise Finance degree programmes which are (i) academically rigorous and (ii) closely aligned to professional practice.
  
  
• By offering this designation, CFA Institute recognises that professional and academic qualifications are complementary and both play an important role in ensuring the success of the finance industry.
  
  
• Being a CFA Program Partner does not mean that the MiF and the CFA are the same thing; they are complementary to each other.  Because of the breadth and depth of its curriculum, the MiF is appropriate for CFA candidates and CFA charter holders alike.

What are the benefits to MiF students?

• Scholarships will be available each year to enable five MiF students to take level 1 of the CFA at the reduced fee of USD 150 for the December sitting ( a savings of USD 585) or USD 220 for the June sitting ( a savings of USD770).
  
  
• A full set of CFA study materials will be available at London Business School.
  
  
• MiF students will also receive a CFA Institute newsletter and will be invited to CFA events.
