SGX and CFA Singapore collaborate

The team-up intends to enhance the level of investment competencies in Singapore.

A joint announcement said the collaboration will see SGX Academy and CFAS adopt a two-prong approach: firstly, to enhance the competencies of trading representatives and financial advisers; and secondly, to equip young investors with basic investment knowledge.

SGX Academy and CFAS will customise content for each segment and reach out to them through a series of investment forums, which will be delivered by CFA charter holders, for the next two years starting July 2012.

For trading representatives and financial advisers, the content will be based on a practitioner’s perspective, focusing on investing, portfolio management and trading with a strong ethics overlay to promote trust and integrity in the industry.

For young investors, the emphasis will be on prudent investing and developing an investment plan. SGX Academy and CFAS will also work with investment clubs of tertiary institutions to develop champions of investor education.
