VIP Class Notes (Jesse) [W]

I did some exercises recently if I had some spare time, as I’m going to have a test next weekend. This test is to get a fund certificate that I can engage in anything of the fund work with this certificate. Although my work doesn’t need this certificate right now, it’s possible to use it in the future. The test involves two parts, one is fund legal regulation, and another is private equity investment knowledge. I read the books and did some exercises and felt very simple before, so I am sure that I will pass it. That’s what I said to everyone, and I will try harder to make preparations in order to let what I said come true.

I did some exercises recently when I had some spare time, as I’m going to have a test next weekend. This test is to get a fund certificate that I can use to engage in anything related to funds with this certificate. Although my work doesn’t need this certificate right now, it will be possible to use it in the future. The test involves two parts, with one being fund legal regulation, and the other being private equity investment knowledge. I read some books and did the exercises and I felt it was very simple before, so I am sure that I will pass it. That’s what I said to everyone, and I will try harder to make preparations in order to let what I said come true.
