frm is more for risk management....cfa is am/hf or i guess the buy side
and what they don't need risk management professionals at HFs?
CFA for equities - i hear is the gold standard.
I created a multifactor RMBS model (prepayment, default, loss severity, etc..) and I'm studying for the FRM, looking at the curriculum for this years FRM it covers more about structuring and up to date issues for debt instruments.
