Arati Porwal, Head of India, CFA Institute
Arati has served as the interim Head of the Indian market since the beginning of 2022. Prior to this appointment, she led the Society Relations function at CFA Institute in India. In the past year, Arati has made significant contributions towards strengthening the investment profession industry, while also demonstrating the immense value that the CFA qualification adds to an individual’s career. She is also playing a crucial role in driving an India strategy, as the country is one of the top markets for the institute globally. Another important initiative that she recently led is the introduction of a flexible payment option for the CFA Program for candidates in India. This new payment option will provide an affordable and convenient EMI option for Indian candidates to pay their exam fees.
“Arati has an exceptional track record of delivering results and has proven herself to be an inspiring leader. I firmly believe she is the right choice to realize the full potential of CFA Institute in India and create a sustainable business, with value for all stakeholders,” said Nick Pollard, Managing Director, Asia Pacific, CFA Institute. “I’m especially delighted that we have been able to find one of our own for this important position.”
“I am very excited to be taking on the role of Head of India at CFA Institute and welcome the opportunity to work with our partners and stakeholders to collectively make a more positive impact on the investment management industry and beyond,” said Arati Porwal, Head, India, CFA Institute. “India is experiencing rapid development and dynamic growth and is one of our biggest markets. In recent times, we have witnessed a rising demand for the CFA Program, and we constantly work to make the program affordable, accessible, meritocratic, and relevant. We have taken several measures towards this objective, including expanding our test center footprint and introducing flexible payment options.”
