The 2016 curriculum is not out yet afaik, should probably be released in the next few days because results for this year are announced today.

#3

As per them Portfolio section is completely changed…One of the fixed income readings is removed…And one reading is added to stats.

#4

can any one give advise me on this. If I register in july with CFAI will i be able to access the curriculum?

#5

Immediately. When I registered in July last year I was able to access the books a few minutes later. And I even received the printed books just two or three days later.

Looks to me like no weighting changes… I’d like to see if someone has a link on all changes from 2015 v 2016…

Is reading 12 from Quant not a new reading?

#10

PM looks like different reading names but probably similar content.
