The Associate Examinations were broadly equivalent to the CFA Program qualification in content and rigour. They were phased out following the merger in 2000 of the Institute of Investment Management and Research ('IIMR') and the London Society of Investment Professionals ('LSIP'), which led to the formation of CFA UK.
The Association Examinations were established in 1979 with five exam papers. In 1989 this was increased to eight exam papers and the qualification upgraded to university degree level. In 1994 a final change was made to align with the development of the IMC qualification. This final iteration resulted in the qualification consisting of 6 examinations.
Completion of the associate examinations enables candidates to become Associates of the Society of Investment Professionals and to use the 'ASIP' designation.
