I have recently become a qualified Chartered Accountant in India. I want to move to Australia/Canada. The only way to go there is on study visa. Hence I am planning to do masters. Although my interest is in CFA only. So I will be pursuing CFA alongside my degree. Please provide your valuable thoughts on my plan and do guide me which masters course should I opt which can benefit my investment banking career too.
Investment Bankers don’t need the CFA.
Abhey,
Congratulations on your recent achievement on CA.
To answer your question regarding pursuing CFA with IB career, I would prefer you to start your professional career with one of the employer and take advantage of utilizing “Professional Educational Support/Assistance” from your employer who supports it, so that you would be benefiting gaining work experience along with pursuing CFA as well.
