You Can No Longer Get Licensure For Investment Banking

Every Incoming Analyst on Linkedin and fresh IB hires just got a Kung-Flu kick to the groin.

All FINRA Licenses are unable to be attained as the Prometric Testing Centers have closed nationwide in accordance with CDC guidelines limiting gatherings of 10 people. It's an initial 30 day closure, but CDC certainly won't be changing the guidelines to what they need for months. FINRA not providing alternative solutions. Existing social distancing policies remaining in effect could prolong this to mid-summer.

that's fucked up, I'm avoiding unnecessary guests for the time being, we all making sacrifices here to flatten the curve man. Call me a cuck another day, but not in these times.

 

yeah absolutely. hate to break it to the OP but the world isn't ending I think FINRA license is definitely the least challenging thing right now.
