  • Key_to_Passing_AF7

    The right preparation is the key to passing the CII AF7 exam

    October 15, 2024
    The current pass rate for AF7 is around 50% – it’s certainly a challenging exam! However, there is a silver lining: there are only so many questions the CII can ask about pension transfers. By analysing past exam papers, it's evident (more so than for any of the other AF exams) that certain questions come up time and time again, and this accounts for a large percentage of the exam. We believe that practising these ‘staple’ questions is key to AF7 revision. Here, we take a look at some of the most common AF7 questions.
