American Counterpart/Equivalent/Similar to the Chartered Institute of Securities and Investment of the UK

Could someone tell me as to what is the American Equivalent/Counterpart/Similar to the Chartered Institute of Securities and Investment (CISI)? and also what weight does CFq (Corporate Finance Qualification) have in the global finance industry. It is a Canadian Qualification. And, would investing in a CQF (Certificate in Quantitative Finance) by Paul Willmott be worth it. And last but not the least, is there a website/resource dedicated to all the financial certifications across the globe, along with their rankings? **MBA and Masters programs is not what I am looking for, rather, something similar to the certifications and diplomas offered by CISI** Thanks a lot for any and every “constructive” advice
