how do the cfai books compare to last year?

Are they basically the same?

thats what i heard. i think 2 new los’s and 1 los dropped. everythin else is the same, but just moved around.

same weight…same BS…

The ethics book has pg 100 being the same of both books

Hey PtrainerNY - I mapped this out in excel (you might be able to copy it into word or excel and clean it up - or I could send it to you). Bottom line - it looks like 1 added / 1 deleted with others moving around within SS. I think there is one reading that is now 6th edition vs. 5th edition. Old Reading # New Reading # Name Old SS New SS 1 1 Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct 1 1 2 2 “Guidance” for Standards I-VII 1 1 3 3 Ethics in Practice 2 2 4 4 The Consultant 2 2 5 5 Pearl Investment Management (A),(B), and © 2 2 6 6 Asset Manager Code of Professional Conduct 2 2 7 7 Heuristic-Driven Bias: The First Theme 3 3 8 8 Frame Dependence: The Second Theme 3 3 9 9 Inefficient Markets: The Third Theme 3 3 10 10 Portfolios, Pyramids, Emotions and Biases 3 3 11 11 Investment Decision Making in Defined Contribution Pension Plans 3 3 12 12 The Folly of Forecasting: Ignore All Economists, Strategists and Analysts 3 3 14 13 Alpha Hunters and Beta Grazers 3 3 15 14 Managing Individual Investor Portfolios 4 4 17 15 Excerpts from Investment Management for Taxable Private Investors 4 4 18 16 Multiple Asset Locations 4 4 19 17 Low-Basis Stock 4 4 20 18 Goals Based Investing: Integrating Traditional and Behavioral Finance 4 4 16 19 Life-Cycle Investing 4 4 Added 20 Human Capital, Asset Allocation and Life Insurance Added 4 21 21 Managing Institutional Investor Portfolios 5 5 22 22 Allocation Shareholder Capital to Pension Plans 5 5 23 23 Capital Market Expectations 6 6 24 24 Macro Analysis and Micro Valuation of the Stock Market 6 7 48 25 Dreaming with BRIC’s: The Path to 2050 17 7 25 26 Asset Allocation 7 8 26 27 Linking Pension Liabilities to Assets 7 8 45 28 The Case for International Diversification (5th changed to 6th edition) 17 8 27 29 Fixed-Income Portfolio Management - Part I 8 9 28 30 Relative-Value Methodologies for Global Credit Bond Portfolio Management 8 9 29 31 Fixed-Income Portfolio Management - Part II 9 10 30 32 Hedging Mortgage Securities to Capture Relative Value 9 10 31 33 Equity Portfolio Management 10 11 33 34 Corporate Governance 10 12 32 35 International Equity Benchmarks 10 12 47 36 Emerging Markets Finance 17 12 34 37 Alternative Investment Portfolio Management 11 13 35 38 SWAPS 11 13 36 39 Commodity Forwards and Futures 11 13 37 40 Risk Management 12 14 46 41 Currency Risk Management 17 14 38 42 Risk Management Applications of Forwards and Futures Strategies 13 15 39 43 Risk Management Applications of Options Strategies 13 15 40 44 Risk Management Applications of Swap Strategies 13 15 41 45 Execution of Portfolio Decisions 14 16 42 46 Monitoring and Rebalancing 15 16 43 47 Evaluating Portfolio Performance 16 17 44 48 Global Performance Evaluation 16 17 49 49 Global Investment Performance Standards 18 18 13 Deleted A Survey of Behavioral Finance 3 Deleted

DM: Thanks for compiling this list. It would have been nice, if CFAI had deleted those really aweful readings on tax shelters & corp. governance. Anyway, more slogging in the future :frowning: A request for everyone: Anytime you come across a reading not matching an LOS, please email CFAI for clarification right away.

OK - I think I got you all. Please let me know if you didn’t get it.

Data-Monkey Could please email me this file at : bjhon73@hotmail.com I will appreciate it. Thanks, TiBWa
