Are you a Member of Another Society?
Note you can be a member of more than one society, but local memberships will require you to join/renew on each society's website. This is not the case for Charterholder, Professional, and Affiliate Memberships which are managed through CFA Institute's Website.
CFA Society Los Angeles is recognized as a nonprofit business league under IRS Section 501(c)(6). Please note that membership dues and sponsorship payments are not considered charitable contributions and therefore are not tax-deductible as charitable donations for federal income tax purposes. However, such payments may be deductible as ordinary and necessary business expenses. We recommend consulting your tax advisor to determine the extent to which your payment may be deductible under applicable tax laws.
