Read full description

Prepare for the Chartered Alternative Investment Analyst (CAIA) exams with a study app organized exactly like the curriculum — all seven topic areas in one place, from professional ethics to hedge funds, private equity, real assets, and structured products. The CAIA Charter is the global benchmark credential for professionals in alternative investments. Earning it means passing two exam levels built on one shared body of knowledge. CAIA Prep distills that knowledge into flash cards, a glossary, and exam-style practice questions you can work through anywhere — ideal for building and reinforcing the Level I foundation that both exams rest on. THE SEVEN TOPIC AREAS • Professional Standards & Ethics — the CAIA Code of Ethics, fiduciary duty, and the Asset Manager Code • Introduction to Alternatives — what alternatives are, institutional investors, and asset allocation • Quantitative & Risk Foundations — returns, risk measures, performance ratios, factor models, and derivatives • Real Assets — real estate, infrastructure, natural resources, and commodities • Hedge Funds & Managed Futures — strategies, structure, fees, and data biases • Private Equity & Private Debt — buyouts, venture capital, and private credit • Structured Products & Digital Assets — securitization, credit derivatives, and digital assets Here's everything you need to study, in one place: FLASH CARDS • 252 tap-to-flip cards across all seven topics — ethics standards, alpha and beta, risk-adjusted performance, cap rates and roll yield, hedge fund fee structures, the J-curve and IRR, securitization waterfalls, and more • Filter by topic and mark cards as mastered to track what you know KEY TERMS GLOSSARY • 168 essential terms — fiduciary duty, illiquidity premium, Sharpe ratio, contango, high-water mark, carried interest, credit default swap, tokenization, and many more • Searchable and color-coded by topic PRACTICE QUESTIONS • 210 realistic, exam-style questions with a clear explanation for every answer • Spread across all seven topics, including applied and quantitative items • Build custom quizzes by topic and length, and review your scores TOPIC GUIDES • Plain-English overview of each topic — what it covers, its approximate exam weight, and how to study it • See how the two exam levels are structured TRACK YOUR PROGRESS • Your mastered cards and quiz scores are saved on your device CAIA PREP PRO Unlock the entire library: • All 252 flash cards • The complete 168-term glossary • All 210 practice questions • Every topic guide Start free, then unlock everything whenever you're ready with a single one-time purchase.
