.cfa Domain Information

Country flagLogo for .cfa Domain

Investment analysis credentials and professional standards sit behind .cfa, a three-letter restricted extension from ICANN's 2012 New gTLD Program. Professional certification bodies had a specific and unusual reason to apply: credential fraud is a live problem, with fake certification and verification pages used to lend false credibility to unqualified individuals in financial advisory roles.

A namespace that cannot be registered by outsiders makes credential verification structurally reliable. Use covers certification programs, examination and curriculum resources, member society content, and professional standards material. The extension is not open to public registration and carries no aftermarket value.
