In keeping with its vision of “Globally recognised Asset Management credentials” the World Partners in Asset Management (WPiAM) has developed a framework for alignment of professional credentials in Asset Management to which professional bodies, post-secondary and training institutions around the world can align over time.

The scheme provides a laddered career path in asset management for individuals who are looking to advance their skills and improve their ability to contribute to the success of the organisations they serve. This competency-based scheme will allow organisations to ensure that the individuals they hire anywhere in the world have the knowledge, skills and experience to apply asset management principles in various contexts.

The process for recognising the equivalence of specific credentials will be administered by the WPiAM. The process to recognise individuals’ accreditation to any of the WPiAM’s framework credentials will be administered by the organisation that owns the certification scheme that has been approved. Each credential will require demonstration of education as well as evidence of competence in practical application.

Any questions on how you or your organisation can get involved, please contact our Association Manager at info@wpiam.com
