Dear Friend,
BACKGROUND:
I have done my Computer Engineering from Sir Syed University. Later I completed my MBA in Finance from CBM and right
now I m working in a management consulting firm as financial analyst.
I m planning to enrolled in CFA to get more details of finance. There are no two opinion on MBA + CFA. Its great but what I need
is advice on something different.
PROBLEM:
Most of the CFA pursue career in investment bank, consulting service & brokerage house. I am not interested in Banking & insurance sector
because of religious reason. Options are very limited for me because Islamic Banking accounts to only 3% in Pakistan ,no growth in consulting firms
Also I have no plan to relocate or move abroad.
QUESTION
• So keeping your view limited to Pakistan please suggest should I go for CFA?
• Do CFAs have an edge in MNCs or what are the growth opportunities?
• What should be the best option for me ,if not CFA?
Best Regards,
Abdul Moeed
