Board of Directors

The Fixed Income Analysts Society is managed by a board of directors who are elected by the membership at an annual meeting held in June. FIASI's Board of Directors includes the President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer and at least four Members-at-Large; one of whom is typically the immediate past President.

Interested members are encouraged to advise the Board of Directors through participation in committees. Current committees include Programming (organizing Speaker Series events), Membership (assist in the recruitment of new members and the retention of current members) and Hall of Fame (make recommendations to the Board of Directors).
