Chartered Body Alliance
A joint initiative by the Chartered Insurance Institute, Chartered Institute for Securities & Investment, the Chartered Banker Institute and CFA Society of the UK.

Why a Chartered Body?
Across the professional landscape, from accountants to civil engineers, and of course through to banking, financial advice and insurance, being a qualified member of a Chartered body is an indicator of high standards of competence, knowledge and ethical behaviour.
Membership of a Chartered body means that an individual or organisation has committed to:
-
High levels of technical and professional knowledge and competence through professional qualifications
-
Keeping knowledge and skills up-to-date through continuing professional development
-
Adherence to a sector set code of professional ethics, conduct and values.
