Special Interest Groups
Special Interest Groups (SIGs) are a new initiative designed to cater to the diverse interests and specialized needs of CFA Society Switzerland members. These groups focus on niche topics and specialties across the finance industry, aiming to enrich members' experience and engagement. The SIG program has been established with the following core objectives:
- Professional Development: Enabling continuous learning and skill development in specialized areas of finance and investment to support members’ career growth.
- Networking and Community Building: Offering a platform where members with shared interests can connect, exchange insights, and build meaningful professional relationships within specific fields.
- Knowledge Sharing: Promoting the exchange of ideas, experiences, and best practices, thereby strengthening the group’s collective expertise.

SIG Champions Recruitment Success
We successfully recruited passionate leaders to champion our Special Interest Groups (SIGs), setting the stage for dynamic and collaborative group experiences. Each champion brought expertise in their SIG’s focus area and demonstrated strong leadership, commitment, and enthusiasm.
Our champions took on critical roles and responsibilities:

Program Development: Champions thoughtfully designed and launched the SIG’s program, creating a structured calendar of events. These included interactive roundtables, hands-on workshops, networking opportunities, and engaging guest speaker sessions.
-
Member Engagement: They defined optimal group sizes and established clear expectations, ensuring a focused and engaged membership. To foster a continuous feedback loop, champions implemented a responsive feedback system, adapting the group’s offerings to meet evolving member needs.
-
Growth Tracking: Champions monitored key metrics, such as membership growth, event attendance, and member engagement, gaining insights to enhance the SIG experience.
Through the efforts of our dedicated champions, each SIG flourished, providing members with enriching opportunities to connect, learn, and grow. Their leadership has laid a strong foundation for the SIG’s continued success.
