A Candidate Engagement Advisory Council sponsored event.
Are you ready for the Level II CFA Exam? How about the Fixed Income section? While Fixed Income at Level II is only 10% - 15% of the exam there’s a lot of complex quantitative material to digest that can feel overwhelming if you have not seen it before. Are you ready to answer questions on forward interest rates, how to price a bond using a variety of different valuation methodologies, as well as discuss yield curves, credit spreads, and credit default swaps?
Please join Peter Stutz, CFA as he helps prepare you for the fixed income section of the Level II CFA Exam. This workshop will take you through some key concepts as well as provide you with 30-40 exam-type questions covering each of the five learning modules. Mr. Stutz will work through solutions to these problems and provide test taking tips specific to the fixed income portion of the exam.
