What is CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst)?
The CFA Program is world-renowned in finance, and increasingly the “gold standard” for portfolio managers, wealth managers, research analysts, and investment professionals in general.
It is a Masters degree equivalent credential run by CFA Institute, focused on building expertise and real-world skills in investment analysis. Once a candidate passes all 3 levels of the exams and meet the required criteria, they can start using the CFA charterholder title.
Since the inception of the first exams in 1963, nearly 200,000 CFA charterholders have successfully obtained the designation. They are employed internationally at nearly every major investment bank, asset management firms, hedge funds, consulting firms, private equity and more.
There is fast-growing demand for the CFA charter – candidate registrations have grown by an average of 7% per year 2012-2019, with 270,000+ candidates globally in 2019 (2020-2023 figures are impacted by pandemic postponements).
In particular, the year-on-year growth has been accelerating since 2015 – we expect this trend to continue given increasing demand from emerging markets.
The Chartered Financial Analyst Program is quite unique in the sense that it mostly sticks to the same 10 core topics across 3 levels, with increasing complexity and difficulty of testing as you progress. It consists of 3 levels, with each level’s exam split into 2 test sessions.
The computer-based CFA exams are conducted in English via in-person testing at 400+ exam sites around the world. Candidates can only register for the next exam level when they have passed their current level.
In terms of pass criteria, there are no negative markings for incorrect answers. The minimum passing score – which isn’t publicly disclosed but we provide estimates of – is determined by the exam committee each year.

Cost and registration fees
The CFA enrollment and registration fees are just one aspect of the total exam costs to consider. With these tough exams, it’s likely that candidates would need to budget for third party study materials to help save time.
For the 3 levels of the CFA exam, a realistic estimate of a total cost range is $3,220-$8,050 to complete your charter, consisting of a $1,340-$2,950 budget for Level 1, and $940-$2,550 each for Level 2 and Level 3 respectively. This doesn’t account for retake costs if you failed though.
As fees are a big topic in itself, check out our infographic above, along with more details of a realistic CFA exam costs you’ll need to budget for.

CFA pass rate and difficulty
The latest CFA exam pass rates are:
- 35% for Level 1 (Nov 2023)
- 44% for Level 2 (Nov 2023)
- 47% for Level 3 (Aug 2023)
As one would expect, the average pass rates increases as one progresses throughout the 3 levels. Since 2010, the historical pass rates for:
- Level 1 ranges from 22%-49%, with a 12-year average of 39%;
- Level 2 ranges from 29%-56%, with a 12-year average of 43%;
- Level 3 ranges from 39%-56%, with a 12-year average of 50%.
Sure, pass rates do give us a vague idea of the famously difficult CFA exams – but really, how hard are the exams?
Thankfully, we have an objective answer for you.
According to UK ENIC (European Network of Information Centres), the CFA exams have been benchmarked individually by Level under UK Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF):
- Level 1‘s difficulty is comparable to a Diploma of higher education (Level 5 qualification under RQF);
- Level 2‘s difficulty is comparable to a Bachelor’s degree (Level 6 qualification under RQF);
- Level 3‘s difficulty is comparable to a Master’s degree (Level 7 qualification under RQF).
Considering that RQF Level 8 implies a difficulty equivalent to PhD programs, passing all 3 levels of the CFA exams is certainly not easy!

CFA study materials
The CFA curriculum is included as part of the registration cost. They alone are sufficient for studying and passing your CFA exams.
However, as they are part of the complete curriculum, they tend to be lengthier and perhaps unapproachable. For some candidates, especially those juggling a family or an intensive full time job, using a quality third party prep provider may make sense as they tend to be more succinct and save a lot of candidates’ time when studying.

CFA vs other finance qualifications
The CFA Program is often compared to other finance designations as part of a potential candidate’s decision making process. Here’s a quick overview of the various global finance qualifications out there and what finance careers it is particularly relevant for:
| Qualification | Description |
|---|---|
| Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) | A global, Masters degree equivalent certification administered by CFA Institute, specializing in advanced investment analysis. Broad generalist finance qualification which is particularly valued in asset/portfolio management, investment research, wealth management, and to a certain extent in financial planning, investment banking, private equity and corporate finance. |
| Certified Financial Planner (CFP) | A professional certification mark for financial planners administered by CFP Board (in the US) and Financial Planning Standards Board (FPSB, in 25 countries outside the US). Highly relevant for financial planners and advisors in the personal financial planning industry. |
| Certified Public Accountant (CPA) | A US-focused accounting designation provided to licensed accounting professionals in each state. A requirement for US accounting professionals who work in public accounting, i.e. firms that provide accounting and tax-related services to businesses. It is not a requirement for work in corporate accounting or private companies. |
| Masters in Business Administration (MBA) | A generalist postgraduate degree focusing on business administration, which covers many topics such as organizational behaviour, accounting, economics of management, marketing, human resources, operational management and much more. It prepares its graduates for a broad range of careers and is often used as a means to change careers/industries, secure a promotion or to move into management roles. |
| Financial Risk Manager (FRM) | A global, Masters degree equivalent certification administered by Global Association of Risk Professionals (GARP), specializing in financial risk management. Certified FRMs are highly sought after in risk management functions of financial institutions. |
| Chartered Alternative Investments Analyst (CAIA) | A global finance designation administered by CAIA Association that specializes in alternative investments such as hedge funds, private equity, real assets, commodities, and structured products. CAIA charterholders are often found working in sectors such as portfolio management, private equity, hedge funds, real estate investment, investment banking and venture capital. |
| Investment Management Certificate (IMC) | Administered by CFA Society of UK, IMC is an entry level qualification to the investment industry. It provides an excellent foundation into the core areas of portfolio management, research analysis, front office investment activities, relationship management and risk management. With no upfront requirements given its foundational nature, it is a great, lower cost stepping stone to the world of finance. |
| Investment Foundations Certificate | A cost effective, online course by CFA Institute which provides a basic introduction to the finance industry, global capital markets, investment tools and ethics in the global investment industry. |
The Chartered Financial Analyst designation covers a broader scope of financial analysis, portfolio management and investment topics, whereas FRM and CAIA are more narrowly focused on risk management and alternative investments specifically.
From a career building perspective, CFA, FRM and CAIA are quite comparable in their respective fields as they are globally recognized designations with ample employment opportunities. Plenty of finance professionals obtain one or two of these qualifications to better perform in their roles and career.
Ultimately, it all depends on your preferred career route: if you’re into risk management, FRM is the clear choice. If you’re less sure but keen on a career in finance, perhaps CFA is a better choice for a broader finance base. If you’re into alternative assets, CAIA is a good specialization to go for.
Here’s a quick summary comparing the three designations:
| CFA | FRM | CAIA | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pre-exam qualifications | See CFA entry requirements for a summary. | None. There are no educational or professional prerequisites needed to register. | None. However, basic foundation in finance and quantitative aptitude is desirable. |

| Number of Exams | 3 levels (the fastest route is in 12 months, witha high chance of burn out) | 2 Parts (you can sit for both parts in one exam day) | 2 levels (unlike FRM, you cannot sit for both exams in the same exam window) |
| Exam Frequency | Level 1: 4x a year (Feb, May, Aug and Nov). Level 2: 3x a year (May, Aug and Nov) Level 3: 2x a year (Feb and Aug). | Part 1: 3x a year (May, Jul, Nov) Part 2: twice a year (May, Nov) | For both Levels: Twice a year in March and September. |

While famous for being difficult, the CFA designation can be a powerful boost to your resume as a finance specialist, given its global recognition and broad appeal.
Be it asset management, wealth management, research, corporate finance, consulting, risk management, banking, insurance, pension and even fintech etc, you can find CFA charterholders having a career in a broad range of sector and job functions.
CFA charter can be a particularly impactful investment in the earlier stage of your career, e.g. after 3-5 years work experience. It is a good choice for those committed to a career in finance while opening up a broader range of options for the future.
