caia and cfa are all certification of investment knowledge. caia is not so related to commds trading.
which part of commds trading do you want to b in?
if you want to be a trader - save your time and money. trader needs working knowledge of maths and stats. no cfa or caia or paper needed as long as you know how to bring in the money.
broker, operations - in the US you need a series 3 to conduct business with customers
software developer - u need c++, c#
quant analysts - knowledge of statistical languages, a Msc or PhD at least in quant finance.
compliance/AML - knowledge of singapore's financial regulations
physical trading - experience with logistics
