Moving from tech into ER

Hey WSO's. I have 8 years internet experience, mainly in digital media development and operational risk management. Am doing OK, but I am in the final year of my MBA majoring in finance and considering a move to ER specialising in internet/media/gaming. Just want to know what my chances are of cracking it moving laterally from industry into finance and what the starting salary would be/expected progression path. Worth doing the CFA? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
