The industry is facing a shift: More capital is flowing into alternatives. Clients are asking better questions. And suddenly, it’s not enough to have a generalist view—you're expected to speak with depth.

That expectation is growing. Quietly. Consistently. And among top-performing teams, this level of knowledge isn’t optional, it’s assumed.

The CAIA Charter was designed for this moment.
