Welcome to CAIA Atlanta Chapter
Atlanta is home to a wide variety of investment professionals representing asset managers, consultants, asset allocators, and other segments of the investing universe. As the economic center of the South, Atlanta continues to grow its influence in the investment industry, and our city’s diverse and dynamic melting pot of investment professionals is a significant advantage for future growth.
CAIA Atlanta partners with CAIA members, candidates, educational institutions, and other industry participants to harness Atlanta’s investment professional diversity through networking and educational opportunities. The Chapter provides a conduit between various segments of alternative investing that may otherwise not be connected, works to raise the profile of the CAIA designation, and supports the continued growth of Atlanta’s alternative investment community.
Founded in 2016.
