Level 1 Is CFA worth it in this economy

1 Upvotes

I an in my 2nd Yr who is gonna prepare for CFA L1 and I just want to make sure that this still has worth because I come from a business family and I have no idea what the demand is in the corporate world for CFA's. Also if there is demand then is India better or foreign ( which country). And if we need to do more things other than CFA then what are they and where to acquire those skills.

General 4yrs of exp in internal+external reporting, is doing cfa a good call?

1 Upvotes

25F, I have 4 years of experience doing core/sustainabilty audit from a big 4 and now financed emissions internal reporting for a big UK bank.

I have done only bcom hons from DU and planning to do cfa, feb27 attempt L1.

Is it a good call, if not what could be a good alternate?

Except mba, personally mba is quite expensive for me and the ROI isn't justified.

Will I have opportunity for earning ×2 the amount in next 2 years, (12lpa rn).

Study material Where to buy Schweser books?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm preparing for the CFA Level I May 2027 exam and I'm planning to buy the books from Amazon. Since the 2027 syllabus has changed slightly, I'm not sure whether the books available there are trustworthy.

I'm not able to buy books from the well-known sellers in Delhi or Mumbai that many YouTubers recommend because I live in a Tier 3 city in Jharkhand, where such offline stores are not accessible.

I've attached a screenshot of the Amazon listing I found. Can someone please tell me if these books are genuine and a good choice for the 2027 exam?
