Grow Your AI Knowledge and Career Through the
CAIA Designation.
The CAIA charter is the global mark of distinction that immediately sets our members apart. Increased scrutiny by both investors and regulators makes it imperative that alternative investment specialists differentiate themselves.
The CAIA curriculum's focus on analysis, application and standards of practice creates the benchmark that institutions, investors and regulators recognize and welcome globally.
In addition to the qualitative advantage of holding the CAIA designation, our members gain access to a number of benefits, including:
International AI Industry Network
Member chapters have formed in a
number of cities
around the world, including New York, London, Singapore, Geneva/Zurich,
and Toronto, and more are on their way. Chapter events give
our
members an opportunity to meet one another as well as provide a venue
for speakers and panel discussions on important topics within the AI
community.
The online Member Directory enables CAIA members to connect with their fellow designees, thereby opening access to, collectively, thousands of hours of in-the-field expertise across the gamut of asset classes and specializations.
Journal of Alternative Investments
CAIA Members receive a complimentary subscription to The Journal of Alternative Investments, the official journal of the CAIA Association. Founded in 1998, JAI is the leading source of cutting-edge research and analysis in the field of alternative investments. Asset allocation, risk management, indexing, regulation, and taxation are among the diverse topics covered.
Firms and institutions looking for qualified alternative investment practitioners post a variety of positions on our member-exclusive Job Board.
