How Does This Align With The CFA Program?

The CMT Association recognizes a CFA Charterholder’s knowledge of financial markets, securities and economics. The CMT Program and charter are an opportunity to add a complementary toolset to your investing and portfolio management process – specifically, how price behavior in freely traded markets interacts with the forces driving valuation. Competency and specialization in the analysis of market price action equip dual Charterholders with a competitive edge and differentiated value to their clients and firms. CFA Charterholders find that technical analysis adds an additional dimension to their work, particularly in the areas of timing and risk management.
