The M9A mock exam & question bank
M9A (CM-LIP Part 2) is the CMFAS paper on investment-linked policies, fund selection, and the risk considerations behind ILPs. Most of the syllabus is principles rather than product detail.
A representative recommends an investment-linked policy to a client. Under the Financial Advisers Act, what must the representative do before the client commits to the purchase?

What makes M9A tricky
Policy types and fee structures get confused
ILP structures, bid-offer spreads, and fund allocation all appear. It is easy to mix them up under pressure.
Hard to find your weak chapters
The syllabus is principle-heavy. Without analytics you waste study time on topics you already know instead of your real gaps.
Application questions, not just definitions
The exam does not just ask what an ILP is. It asks you to match it to a client's needs and risk profile.
What M9A covers
- Investment-linked policy structures
- Fund types and fund selection
- Bid-offer spreads and ILP charges
- Fund allocation and switching
- Risk profiling and suitability
- Disclosure requirements for ILPs
- Insurance law and regulation
How to prepare for M9A with CMFAS Prep
The same practice loop candidates use to walk in ready and pass on the first try.
Practice that targets your weak chapters
After each mock exam the engine reviews every answer, finds the chapters you scored lowest in, and builds a quiz from just those topics. You spend your time where it moves your score.
- Targeted practice built in seconds
- Adapts as your scores change
- Focuses on the chapters costing you marks

Instant feedback and a clear explanation every time
Learn as you practise. Every question gives an immediate right or wrong mark with a plain-English explanation, so the concept sticks the first time instead of on exam morning.
- Immediate right or wrong feedback
- A clear explanation for every question
- Less time re-reading dense notes

A mock that feels like the real paper
Sit a full paper under the official timing and question style, with results shown only at the end. You walk into the real exam already knowing how it feels and where you stand.
- Matches the official timing and structure
- Answers revealed only after you submit
- Builds the stamina a full paper needs

Don't just practise. Prepare the smart way.
