Master Both CSC Exams, Domain by Domain
Built for candidates preparing for the Canadian Securities Course, the foundational credential administered by CSI for Canada's financial services industry, this guide is organized against the real, separately weighted domains of both CSC Exam 1 and CSC Exam 2. It moves from the structure of the Canadian securities industry and the economy through fixed-income and equity securities, derivatives, corporate finance, investment and portfolio analysis, managed and structured products, taxation, and client-facing practice, covering each topic to the depth its actual exam weighting demands.
Inside: 1,100 practice questions across 11 full-length, domain-weighted simulation exams, six built to CSC Exam 1's blueprint and five to CSC Exam 2's, with every answer key code-validated before publication and a full explanation behind every question.
Everything You Need for Both CSC Exams
• 13-chapter domain review — the Canadian securities industry, the economy, fixed-income and equity securities, derivatives, corporate finance, investment and portfolio analysis, managed and structured products, taxation, and client-facing practice, weighted to match both official exam blueprints.
• 1,100 practice questions across 11 full-length exams — six for Exam 1, five for Exam 2, so you rehearse each track on its own terms instead of one blended question bank.
• Worked calculations for bond pricing, portfolio return, margin calls, and capital gains — the numeric questions that trip up candidates who only memorized definitions.
• Code-validated answer keys with a full explanation for every question — not just what's correct, but why each distractor is wrong.
• Direct coverage of the Client Focused Reforms, KYC and suitability obligations, and Canada's current regulatory structure — the compliance material examiners test hardest.
• Bonus digital flashcard set — rapid-recall cards keyed to every domain, drill anywhere between practice exams.
• Free access to the online exam simulator — timed, exam-day-condition practice on our companion platform, included with your purchase at no extra cost.
Open it today — by the time you reach Practice Exam 11, both CSC exams will feel like a formality.
