BENEFITS OF THE CIPM DESIGNATION
19. 19
Lessons learned by obtaining the [CIPM]
designation helped me to better understand,
shape and improve internal processes in
performance analytics as well as in performance
and risk client reporting. It also helped me boost
my career as a subject matter expert in the area.
Maciej Lagoda, CIPM
Performance Analyst, Credit Suisse
Switzerland
I was delighted to be one of the first to take the
CIPM exam and support the program. The
program is the essential cornerstone to
developing performance measurement.
Carl Bacon, CIPM
Chairman, StatPro Group
United Kingdom
The CIPM has distinguished and defined my
career. The knowledge is not just for
performance practitioners, but for non-
practitioners as well. A non-practitioner will never
see performance the same way ever again after
completing the CIPM. From understanding the
fundamental concepts that form the foundation of
every return calculated in all the right measures,
to looking beyond the numbers and obtaining the
skill to effectively evaluate strategies and the
managers who execute them. It is my opinion
that this niche area of study is one
of the most important and impactful in the
investment industry.
