FAQ

Common questions about Chartered Alternative Investment Analyst (CAIA)

How does the focus change from Level I to Level II?

Level I builds the vocabulary and mechanics of alternative assets, including how their cash flows, leverage, and investment structures work. Level II asks you to apply those ideas to allocation, risk, access routes, manager selection, and ethical decisions.

Why should I examine both IRR and a cash multiple for a private fund?

A cash multiple compares value received with capital invested, while IRR also reflects when contributions and distributions occur. An early distribution can raise IRR without increasing the total proceeds, so inspect the dated cash flows alongside both measures.

Why might an alternatives portfolio be less diversified than it appears?

Different strategy labels can conceal shared exposure to credit conditions, leverage, or a need for liquidity. In a stress scenario, losses and funding demands may arrive together. Look through holdings and financing terms, and question correlations estimated from infrequent valuations.
