Thanks. I already looked at CFA as well, a friend recommended CA that's why I was asking. I was initially looking to pursue MS Finance because I know it can give me in depth knowledge of Finance. I understand that there are no specialized degree being offered in Pakistan on Finance. Most universities are offering MS Management with Finance specialization. The only problem I am facing with CFA is the fact that I am not hired in the financial sector and I would need around 4 years of experience to get the charter. Currently I only do freelancing on research and data analysis. I did pursue financial firms when I graduated but unfortunately was not able to find a job not even an internship.

I might just pursue a MS Finance and go from there.
