Overview
The IMC is recognised by the fund management industry as the entry level qualification of choice for those working in financial analysis and investment management in the UK and is often quoted as a prerequisite for posts in investment management companies. The IMC also offers a good introduction to the financial services industry for those working in support areas, such as information technology and marketing, and it provides a solid foundation for Level I of the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) Programme.
Course content
The IMC is administered by the CFA Society of the UK (formerly known as UK Society of Investment Professionals). Its objective is ‘to test the delegate’s knowledge and understanding of the regulations and practices of financial markets, categories of securities and principles of investment management’.
To achieve full IMC accreditation delegates must complete Units 1 and 2 successfully.
