Cs as a career..!! or cfa is better


14 July 2012 Dear Professionals,
I m a B.com Graduate in Accounting Honours, I m from Bhubaneswar Odisha but I want to study in Mumbai for my professionals.
Is Company Secretary a good course, means can i earn nd have scope as a CA..??
Coz I can register for Executive directly, is it having a good scope..nd I will join LLb too after my Executive, is it good combo CS+LLb or my next interest is CFA.
Pls suggest.

15 July 2012 CS will give you good exposure of law, secretarial practice and SEBI also.
By doing LLB, you can work as a corporate lawyer which is itself a good combination and as good as CA.
And on the other hand, CFA gives you the exposure in finance. But you want to do LLB after your executive than you should opt for CS.

15 July 2012 thank u very much Sunil Sir, as u suggest m going for CS+LLb.
But Sir ,,is Mumbai good for CS coz there is more exposure nd Worldly knowledge or I should stay in Bhubaneswar do some coaching nd self study until my executive then go to Mumbai take admission in Government Law College nd do my professionals..??




16 July 2012 Hi Dheeraj,

As Sunil said, these professions are not very comparable. CS is relatively easier to pass, but standalone has limited value. With LLB it provides a good base for corporate law.

CA is Accounting and Finance related.

CFA(USA) is for Investment Banking related Finance, and is a very lucrative option, subject to market conditions. However, most people who are pursuing CFA already have an IB or related job, otherwise it can be very challenging to break into the industry later.

I will advise you to come to Bombay - because level of professional activity is higher and exposure should be greater. IF you are able to get admission to GLC, that is a great college and should be a good career base.

All the best,

16 July 2012 Thank u very much Aniket Sir, Is it too late for me to take admission in GLC??
If I will not get admission in GLC, then I should continue in CS EXecutive then take admission in GLC next year..??

17 July 2012 I am not sure about GLC admission timeline, you will have to check that with GLC.

If its gone, you should continue with CS Executive, in my opinion. It will give you good base for corp law when you pursue LLB in GLC.

Cheers,

18 July 2012 Thank you so much for encouraging,the time line for GLC is over, they said come next year sorry,, then I got negative feelings nd completely broken but thanks to you Sir..I WILL CONTINUE DOING Executive in my Hometown but next JUne I will be in my Dream Land MUmbai.
Thank u again SIr
