Membership dues are owed annually (or bi-annually, if the Individual chooses to pay for a two-year Membership) initially in the month the Individual passed the Level II exam (either October or April) and thereafter for the following twelve (12)-month period (the “Renewal Cycle”) starting June 1.
If the Individual’s Membership lapses, and is subsequently reinstated, the Individual’s Membership dues are retroactively applied to the start of the current renewal cycle, (June 1), regardless of date on which the Individual’s Membership is reinstated.
Only Members who reside permanently in an emerging market country, (as defined by the MSCI indices), and for whom that address is reflected as their primary address on their CAIA.org user account, are eligible for the emerging market Membership rate.
Membership dues are nonrefundable.
