The application conditions for the fund qualification examination are the same as those for the general securities qualification examination. Those who meet the application conditions for securities business may apply for fund business.
To obtain the qualification of securities practitioners, only two courses are needed, that is, the basic knowledge of securities as a basic subject, plus any professional subject. The four professional subjects include: securities trading, securities investment funds, securities investment analysis, securities issuance and underwriting.
To obtain the qualification of securities practice, you must have the basic knowledge of securities and any one of the four majors. Failing the basic knowledge of securities examination may not even pass the four professional subjects.
Because the subject of the fund qualification examination is securities investment fund, it can't take other subjects, so it doesn't mean that you can get the fund sales qualification by passing the securities qualification examination.
Those who must pass the securities investment fund examination can only obtain the qualification of securities practice, but not the qualification of fund sales. Pass the examinations of "Basic Knowledge of Securities" and "Securities Investment Fund", you can obtain the qualifications of securities practitioners and fund sales practitioners at the same time.
