Volunteer: Be A JOINER… and Profit!

The goals of the Stamford CFA Society for the year are fourfold.

a) To build a robust, mutually beneficial relationships with Fairfield and Westchester County employers and businesses with the goal of matching employer needs to our talented member pool
b) To communicate with all our members to let them know what’s happening in the Society and how they can get the most out of their membership.
c) To continue and strengthen SCFAS involvement in the hedge fund community
d) To encourage wider member participation in committee work and for specific projects.

You have worked hard at attaining your CFA charter. Or you may be in the process of going through one of the examination levels on your way to achieving that goal.

The Stamford CFA Society is your most powerful tool for business, social, career, and intellectual growth. SCFAS committees are communities of individuals who share professional interests and goals. Together, committee members plan programs, exchange ideas, provide peer support, and circulate employment and business opportunities.
