There are just so many certificates for finance-oriented jobs out there. How should I go about finding out which certification I should go for?
Right now, I really don't know much about each of them. I am just a math major with a concentration in economics.

First you need to figure out what you want to do. Then research the designations (they aren't certificates) and find which one is most applicable to the area you want to be in.
License & Certificate make me sick!! Need your advice. (CFA, CMT, CFP, CHP...) (Originally Posted: 09/22/2010)
I am: 23 years old from Spain Student of Buisness administration
I would like to get out of this country, because there is no future. My target is to work in any Asian Country like, Singapore, Malaysia, China, India, etc... or maybe in Emirates.
But at this moment i don't know which certificate i have to study (CFA, CMT, CFP, CHP, etc...) to get more oportunities around the world.
CFA requires a lot of time and i don't know if i will be able to complete the III Levels. CMT, i would like to do it because it's what i like! but people tell me that it's useless, it's not will be open me doors. I have read too much about TA and i practice it daily.
I can't wate more time of my life deciding what to do. I don't know what more certificates there are. Please can you give me any advice?
Than you very much!
Do you speak any Asian language? if not, forget about it
Yes, i speak Urdu/Hindi (Language spoken in Pakistan & India).
I am not going to forget it, if i have to learn basic chinese level in 1 year, i willo do it! ;)
But first i need to know what kind of certificates are recognised in Asia.
Thank you very much!
UAE takes CFA very seriously... Can't speak on the others
