Acuity Knowledge Partners was recently recognised among the top 25 employers of CFA Charterholders and candidates in Sri Lanka at the second edition of the prestigious Employer Recognition Program. The recognition is a testament to the company’s commitment to talent growth and professional excellence within the financial services industry. Acuity was previously recognised among the top 25 in 2022.

The CFA Society Sri Lanka Employer Recognition Program recognises organisations that truly value CFA Program candidates and Charterholders through employment, career development initiatives, and professional sponsorship. The program focuses on the growing significance of the CFA designation in Sri Lanka’s financial services and investment communities and recognizes firms that foster a rigorous ethics, knowledge, and analytical skills.

As a research, analytics, and business intelligence provider on a global scale, Acuity greatly values the knowledge and professionalism held by CFA Charterholders and candidates. A significant number of the company’s employees have either obtained or are working toward attaining the CFA designation, and they are supported by the company through various means.

Acuity has created an official framework that supports CFA candidates through financial sponsorship of exam costs, study leave, and exposure to mentoring by experienced individuals within the company. These facilities are designed to assist employees as they navigate the challenges they face in the CFA Program, while also enriching professional competencies and career development.

The company believes that by allowing its professionals to acquire globally recognized qualifications such as the CFA charter, it also enhances the value of service which it offers to customers around the world. The recognition of Acuity in this framework indicates its role in the professionalisation of the financial sector in Sri Lanka.

Jehan Jeyaretnam, Country Head, Acuity Knowledge Partners Sri Lanka, said, “Being recognised again by CFA Society Sri Lanka is a great privilege. This is a testament to our ongoing efforts to cultivate a high-performing team motivated by ethical principles, rich financial acumen, and world-class practices.”

Globally, CFA Charterholders serve top financial institutions such as JP Morgan, UBS, Morgan Stanley, BlackRock, and Goldman Sachs. In Sri Lanka, the CFA Employer Recognition Program honours those firms which are as dedicated to excellence and professional development.

With this recognition, Acuity Knowledge Partners reinforces itself as a preferred employer in Sri Lanka’s financial sector—welcoming professionals who seek to build long-lasting careers and positively impact the growth of the country’s investment and financial services sectors.
