I'm going to do one more thorough read-through of ethics before June 2nd. For anyone that has recently read both, is the CFAI Standards of Practice Handbook PDF worth the extra time compared to Schweser?

I haven't looked at the CFAI handbook since December. Anyone have any suggestions?


Btw - just tracked down the link for myself, here's the CFAI SOP PDF for anyone else:

absolutely, make sure to really study the examples given in the practice handbook for each one of the Standards.
 
question:

this is the same thing that's in the CFA curriculum, right? Book one reading is the exact same as this PDF?

you might save me a phone call to CFA HQ (anyone else really hit and miss on their customer service btw?? one day great, other day hateful, is my experience...)
 
Yup should be the same as CFAI book. Young_prof...I would absolutely..positively go through the standards of practice handbook and not schwesser...or so they say..
 
what is the latest edition Standards of Practice Handbook?? 9??
 
reema,

http://www.cfainstitute.org/centre/ethics/newCS.html

"The latest Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct was approved by the CFA Institute Board of Governors in May 2005. The new Code and Standards became effective 1 January 2006."

http://www.cfapubs.org/toc/ccb/2005/2005/3

"The ninth edition of the Handbook contains the Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct, commentary and interpretation of the Code and Standards with examples illustrating application of the Standards in the day-to-day professional activities of members and candidates, and a self-administered Standards of Practice examination with commentary. The ninth edition provides guidance on the Code and Standards that were revised and effective 1 January 2006."
