There are three examination levels that assess the academic portion of the CFA program. All three levels emphasize the subject of ethics. Level I emphasizes tools and inputs, and includes an introduction to asset valuation, financial reporting and analysis, and portfolio management techniques. Level II emphasizes asset valuation, and includes applications of the tools and inputs (including economics, financial reporting and analysis, and quantitative methods) in asset valuation. Level III emphasizes portfolio management, and includes descriptions of strategies for applying the tools, inputs, and asset valuation models in managing equity, fixed income, and derivative investments for individuals and institutions. To become a charterholder, candidates must satisfy the following requirements : Have four years (48 months) of qualified work experience or a combination of education and work experience acceptable by the CFA Institute.
