Chartered Alternative Investment Analyst

The Alternative Investment Management Association (AIMA) – a global, not-for-profit trade Association - and the Center for International Securities and Derivatives Markets (CISDM) – a nonprofit research and education center at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst – have joined forces to sponsor the creation of the Chartered Alternative Investment Analyst (CAIA) designation. Both AIMA and CISDM have been leading proponents of education in alternative investment management since 1990 and 1995 respectively.

As a new standard for professionals within this specialist area of investments, the qualification will demonstrate an individual’s abilities within and understanding of alternative investment vehicles. The CAIA designation is offered through the Chartered Alternative Investment Analyst Association. For information on obtaining the CAIA designation, please visit or contact the CAIA personnel at (+1 413 253 7373) or email .
