Welcoming the Charter holders, President of CFA Society Sri Lanka Sanjay Kulatunga said, "This year we have added yet another sevenpassed finalists and 20 charter holders to the growing roster of CFAs within the capital market industry, and I dare say even the wider corporate sectors of our country. I would like to congratulate all of Charter recipients and passed finalists in having reached the culmination of a rigorous program of study over three years."
Orator for the evening, Director of Tata Sons Ramabadran Gopalakrishnan was inspiring with his examples of life lessons, including realizing personal potential and achieving work-life balance. Instilling the importance of ethics by sharing a real life story, he showed extraordinary human accomplishments that have questioned the relationship between fact and opinion. "As you strive in your career for accomplishment, recognition and advancement, remember there is no better yardstick than what you have set in your own mind. It is important for all of us to take pride from our accomplishments, rather than expend mental energy to be one up on our peer."
To earn the CFA charter, candidates must sequentially pass three six-hour examinations which are widely considered to be the most rigorous in the investment profession.
The CFA curriculum includes ethical and professional standards, financial reporting and analysis, corporate finance, economics, quantitative methods, equity, fixed income, alternative investments, derivatives, portfolio management and wealth planning. Currently, more than 120,000 investment professionals in 149 nations and territories hold the CFA charter.
