Ep 6 – Attila Köksal, CFA

Imagine preparing for one of the most notoriously difficult exams without any kind of support or mentorship. That’s exactly what Attila Köksal was up against in his home country of Turkey when he set his sights on becoming a Chartered Financial Analyst®. Back in the mid 90’s, there were only a handful of candidates in his part of the world. Without much support system, he studied constantly. Despite having difficulty with the first level, he was able to push ahead. Learn how Attila beat the odds to become Turkey’s first CFA® charterholder.
