| General Information
The Baltimore CFA Society has a rich history. Founded in 1948 as the Baltimore Security Analysts Society (“BSAS”), the membership elected to change the name of the not-for-profit professional organization to the Baltimore CFA Society (“BCFA”) in 2006. The Society name was changed to create more public awareness for the Chartered Financial Analyst (“CFA”) designation. Three quarters of the 570 members (at the time of the name change) were CFA Charter-holders. Participation and membership in BCFA does not require the CFA designation. The Baltimore CFA Society’s mission is to provide the financial community with information and knowledge, while advocating ethical conduct with regard to investments and financial management. The Baltimore CFA Society also seeks to encourage and aid the education of persons engaged in the investment profession, and to provide members of the society with opportunities to exchange ideas and information amongst their peers. The Baltimore CFA Society is an affiliate of the CFA Institute, which has over 88,000 members globally. BCFA membership draws from a diverse cross section of local investment firms, financial and educational institutions, and government agencies. Benefits of BCFA Membership You can:
