The CISI is the largest and most widely respected professional body for those who work in the Securities and Investment industry in the UK as well as for a growing number of major financial centres round the world, including Cyprus. Its accreditation process is a key feature of its quality assurance, with the purpose of enabling training providers to demonstrate that they can deliver quality training and support for candidates preparing to sit CISI exams.
Previously known as the Investment Administration Qualification (IAQ), this certification serves as a qualifying stage for candidates who aspire to noteworthy careers in a financial institution. The objective of this qualification is to prepare the individuals for their duties and responsibilities in their future work assignments, making sure that they can function well and measure up to the expectations of the industry. Developed by industry practitioners, this certification aims to set the standards in the work place.
The ICWM is appropriate for staff working in private banking and wealth management roles who need to demonstrate competence through the achievement of a benchmark qualification and who want to develop a thorough understanding of how to deliver wealth management advice. Its broad focus makes it suitable for a wide audience, from new entrants to financial services, or professionals who may be interested in diversifying into wealth management.
