In January 2018, CFA Society Netherlands merged with VBA Investment Professionals (VBA beleggingsprofessionals) to increase member value and build a greater presence in the local market. CFA Society VBA Netherlands members now get to benefit from the VBA’s highly regarded journal.
Terri Thompson, Staffed Office Executive, CFA Society VBA Netherlands, explained: “One benefit of the merger is that CFA charterholders now have free access to the locally produced VBA Journaal, which was introduced by VBA belegginsprofessionals in 1984. It is a semi-academic industry journal, published quarterly, with over 135 editions so far. The VBA Journaal provides member value in several ways. Not only a source of local content on topical themes, it also provides a forum for members to publish by writing articles, opinion papers and practice-oriented content, and to develop skills and contribute to the society through participating on the editorial board. Circulation of the VBA Journaal has nearly doubled since the merger meaning that more members and more local industry professionals are gaining access to this knowledge and raising the visibility of the society in the process.”
