CFA Program costs + scholarships: To better manage the costs, it's worth finding out if you're eligible for any CFA scholarships. CFA Institute has recently streamlined their scholarships into 3 main categories, check out our guide for the latest deadlines.
FRM fees and difficulty: Speaking about fees, FRM has a comparatively lower fee for a similarly difficult qualification to the CFA Program. We often get this question of CFA vs FRM, but it's comparing apples to oranges at times as it depends if you are keen in a career of risk management or not.
