CFA exam to add big data, AI as topics
New York

The new material will appear on Chartered Financial Analyst tests in 2019, according to Steve Horan, the institute's managing director of credentialing. It should help draw a broader audience, potentially luring applicants from the financial-technology industry, he said.
