As far as the examination is concerned, the securities qualification examination is relatively easy, and you only need to pass any one of the basic and other four items to obtain the first-class qualification. The examination is organized by China Securities Industry Association, and Tianxiang Consulting Investment is responsible for the proposition. At the same time, there are more times to take the securities qualification examination, and there are more opportunities to take the examination in a year (especially in Beijing). There are few candidates for futures qualification examination, and the style of proposition is immature.
As far as gold content is concerned, there is no difference between the two, just a simple industry access qualification. If you want to develop in the long run, CFA, CIIA and other exams are the real journey.
