For those in AM: thoughts on CAIA, CIPM, etc?? I was wondering if these will actually help vs. just waste of money.

CMT vs CAIA?

I currently work in sales for an asset manager and have an MBA. Would like a designation, one that’s applicable to asset management and has some status/recognition. Appreciate any thoughts or insights. (Also dont want to take CFA)

Hi 🐠, question on CFA / CAIA- are either worth pursuing if you want to “up” your professional bonafides? I don’t come from a background in finance, but work primarily w/ PEGs like so many of us.

Anyone on the distribution side of private funds ? Currently at a liquid alternative 40act fund and working on my CAIA. I was wondering how difficult the jump is to the other side. Any context would be helpful!

Has anyone taken the CAIA ? Any tips ?

Currently looking for Tech consulting/ Implementation consultant/ privacy roles in London. I have both CIPP/E and CIPM.
Please let me know if you know any roles that are available? Or any recruitment agencies you can refer me to

Thank you!

For those who have passed the CIPM exam, what is it like (and how does it compare to the CIPP/US exam)?

Taking the CIPM soon. Is reading the textbook enough?

Which privacy cert would you go for, CIPM or CIPT? Debating which I should test for, since I have competency in both. Which has better ROI for career, or in greater demand in industry?

CAIA or CMT?

I do institutional sales for an asset manager. Am graduating in the fall with an MBA from a top 40 school. Would like a designation but dont want to do the CFA.  Between the CAIA and CMT: which one is more applicable to asset management, and better status/recognition? appreciate any insight

Is there any additional tangible value in getting the CIPM in addition to the CIPP (I.e., will a company hire a candidate with both the CIPP and CIPM over one with just the CIPP, if both candidates have same YOE)?

If anyone’s looking to refer in a remote/hybrid security or privacy pro above $200k, lmk.

Looking for advice on types of roles I should be searching in financial services. I am an expert communicator, both written and verbal (many publications, and pre-consulting/fs career in public speaking), and a great salesperson. Want to be able to keep writing and attending conferences, as well as have a sales component. I don't enjoy working with back office banking robots. I can play the part short term, but have bristled on longer term engagements with human potatoes. 8YOE, Series, & CAIA
