Opinions are welcomed.
How about retiring since you’ll be nearing your late 50s…
I am 25 :).
What about CQF?
What job do you have or want?
Don’t just collect these kinds of things, if you want a broad skill set get a broad degree/certification (MBA)
Don’t get something like an ASA unless you’re going to be an actuary. It won’t add much
To be an actuary you generally need quite a strong mathematics background. How’s yours?
I work in a buyside pension investment team.My boss says CFA has helped me understand the investment aspect of Plan Assets and Actuary may just help me to understand plan liabilities better.
Had some mathematical courses in my post graduate like differentiation,functions,limits,area under the curve,vector,matrixes etc etc.Will it be enough?
Any opinions?
Probability is the biggest part of it, if you have had a few college level math courses and it’s something that your boss is recommending I would say start down the path- research it a little more. Research the tests, ask any questions on actuary forums, and if it looks good try the first one. Not to be harsh but you have asked for opinions twice, this is something your probably going to need to research and decide on yourself (there isn’t a clear right or wrong answer).
Thanks
