ETF Central, a platform for ETF investors and practitioners operated by Trackinsight and the New York Stock Exchange, has announced a collaboration with The ETF Institute to further ETF education and The ETF Institute’s Certified ETF Advisor (CETF) designation.
ETF Central provides free educational content for professionals and investors in the fast-growing ETF industry as well as access to market data across U.S.-listed ETFs. This new collaboration represents an important expansion of the information available on the platform, providing individuals with preparatory materials to help achieve and maintain the CETF designation.
“ETF Central is pleased to collaborate with The ETF Institute to support the continued growth of the CETF designation and the curriculum behind it,” says Philippe Malaise, Co-founder and CEO of Trackinsight. “Together with the NYSE, Trackinsight created ETF Central to be the primary resource for professionals and investors seeking educational content, news and data on the ETF industry.”
“We are thrilled to work together with ETF Central to bring new resources to CETF holders and candidates,” says Nate Geraci, Co-founder of The ETF Institute. “The ETF industry has grown at a rapid pace since the first U.S.-listed ETF was launched three decades ago, and we developed the CETF designation to help standardize and advance the knowledge base of professionals in our industry.”
“ETF Central’s collaboration with The ETF Institute highlights the continued growth of this platform as a resource for industry professionals and investors alike,” said Douglas Yones, Head of Exchange Traded Products at the NYSE. “ETF Central’s goal is to empower the ETF community, and supporting the growth of the CETF designation only furthers that mission.
The CETF designation is recognized by FINRA and granted to candidates after successfully completing a comprehensive examination demonstrating competence in a broad range of ETF topics.
