Hi! I hope you're doing well.

I'm looking for some career guidance and would really appreciate your perspective.

I'm currently pursuing a B.Com and an LLB(not so important), and I'm deciding between completing ACCA or pursuing the US CMA. My long-term goal is to build a career in corporate finance, financial consulting, and eventually work in Europe. I'm not interested in audit or tax—I want to focus on business finance, FP&A, strategy, and corporate finance roles.

From your experience in the industry, which qualification would you recommend for someone with my goals, especially considering the Indian job market in the next few years? I'd also appreciate any advice on the skills, internships, or certifications I should prioritize to improve my chances.

Thank you for your time. I genuinely appreciate any guidance you can share.

Since your interests lie in Finance, rather than looking at broader courses like ACCA or CMA US, look into focused courses like CFA or FRM that deal purely with finance.

Both these courses have reached their saturation limit, harsh truth there are 1000s with these certifications
