European Federation of Financial Analysts Societies

Founded in 1962, the European Federation of Financial Analysts Societies (EFFAS) is a Pan- European grouping of 26 National Societies of Financial Analysts, bringing together leading experts from all of Europe's Equity and Fixed Income markets (more than 17.000 investment professionals in Europe). EFFAS' overall aim is to set standards for investment professionals in the fields of communications, ethics, and qualifications, to actively bring our influence to bear on relevant EU guidelines whilst recognizing and respecting regional market characteristics ( www.effas.net).
