Indian CFA

The Institute of Chartered Financial Analysts of India was established in 1984 as a non-profit society, with the objective of providing training in finance and management. The ICFAI University refers to the Universities sponsored by the Institute of Chartered Financial Analysts of India in Uttarakhand, Tripura, Sikkim, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, and Jharkhand under respective legislation. The Governments of Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh and Punjab issued letters of intent to the Institute for the establishment of Universities. Each University is a separate and independent legal entity. Consequently, the University confers degrees at Bachelor’s, Master’s and Doctoral levels on eligible students subject to the University Regulations.

The University Grants Commission has included all the Universities mentioned above in the list of Universities maintained under Section 2(f) of the UGC Act, 1956.

However in the list of Universities/Institutions approved by Distance Education Council (As of 01/02/2010), only ICFAI University, Dehradun has been included.

ICFAI is not affiliated with the CFA Institute and both the institutes have broken their partnership and are running their courses separately.
