Hi Ravi

Even if you plan to take exams in December it’s better to start now

Best utilization of your time
Practice makes you perfect
You need to spend at least one month for revision

I cleared my CFA level I last June 2011 when I was in UK (for pursuing my MBA) and had taken coaching from “Global Banking Training” institute, the training was excellent and particularly the mock exams and the individual feedback helped me a lot to clear the exams.

Hi Sam,

Congratulations to you for having cleared CFA level l.

Thanks for your suggestion, I agree it makes more sense to start the preparation early and give more time for revision. Do you have any idea whether Global Banking Training also has branches in India or do they conduct any online training? And what’s the cost for CFA level1 training?

Thanks in advance

Hi Ravi,

As I am currently working fulltime so preferred to take their online coaching for CFA Level ll but yes they do have training centre in Mumbai/Pune/Bangalore and the fee for CFA level l training is INR16000 and you can get more details by visiting their website www.globalbankingtraining.com also they conduct job oriented training programs related to investment banking which I am planning to take after finishing my CFA level ll exams this June.

Hi Sam,

I recently completed my MBA and very much interested to work only in front office investment bank roles, so I am very much eager to know whether this Global banking training institute conducts training for front office investment banking roles or is it related to back office roles. Because I don’t want to work in back office operations.

Hi Giri,

You are right after doing an MBA there is no point working in a back office role, besides I guess one doesn’t need a training to get in to back office role which is more process oriented job. I decided to take up training because basically in most of the interviews related to equity research or front office investment banking roles, they ask you questions more related to merger deals or test your comfort level in building basic financial models. In my last interview with a boutique firm, I couldn’t answer questions related to M&A so I decided to go for a training which is more application oriented and hence chose to do from Global banking training
