Note

Per my MSVU course, LIBR 2100 Introduction to Research in the Information Age, part of my course assignment is to find the citation needed and add a short passage of new information with appropriate citation to the article I have chosen Investment Management.

Investment management Education or certification[edit] Increasingly, international business schools are incorporating the subject into their course outlines and some have formulated the title of 'Investment Management' or 'Asset Management' conferred as specialist bachelor's degrees (e.g. Cass Business School, London). Due to global cross-recognition agreements with the 2 major accrediting agencies AACSB and ACBSP which accredit over 560 of the best business school programs, the Certification of MFP Master Financial Planner Professional from the American Academy of Financial Management is available to AACSB and ACBSP business school graduates with finance or financial services-related concentrations. For people with aspirations to become an investment manager, further education may be needed beyond a bachelors in business, finance, or economics. Designations, such as the Chartered Investment Manager (CIM) in Canada, are required for practitioners in the investment management industry. A graduate degree or an investment qualification such as the Chartered Financial Analyst designation (CFA) may help in having a career in investment management.[3]

There is no evidence that any particular qualification enhances the most desirable characteristic of an investment manager, that is the ability to select investments that result in an above average (risk weighted) long-term performance[1]. The industry has a tradition of seeking out, employing and generously rewarding such people without reference to any formal qualifications.[2]

APA Bibliography and Cited Passage

There is no evidence that any particular qualification enhances the most desirable characteristic of an investment manager, that is the ability to select investments that result in an above average (risk weighted) long-term performance[1]. Using natural ability and intelligence are good features. Knowing how the financial system operates and consistently keeping abreast on news is key. Investment managers effectively use core values and principles as guidelines to achieve their corporate goals. Prosperous investment managers accept, study and learn from mistakes (Cassidy, 2011). The industry has a tradition of seeking out, employing and generously rewarding such people without reference to any formal qualifications.[2]
