Hello all!
First time signing up for this website, long time lurker
I am a student finishing up my degree. Deciding between credit analysis, equity analysis, and corporate banking.
Would a CFA cover all of these sectors, or should I try and find a course dealing with these?
Thanks!

As a Charterholder, I would strongly discourage pursuing the program for those roles. It is a ton of work/time, and no one really cares outside of a few industries. The industries where it matters, for the most part, are equity research (either buyside in AM or sell-side at a bank) and personal wealth management. Other than those, it will be of limited to no value and will waste a ton of your time.
Charterholder here as well and echo the guy above. It may be useful as a feather in your cap if you come from a non-finance background and are trying to show interest in the field with the purposes of lateralling but for someone who is still in school, there are far better uses of time especially now that banks love to interview non-finance candidates as well from schools.
also charterholder here. maybe equity analysis comes closest to relevant knowledge, but CB and Credit is more accounting and balance sheets.
Absolutely pointless if you’re not in AM/ER just run lol.
lmao, all the replies are 'Charterholder here. Confirmed useless'. Reminds me....I'm late on my annual dues.
Good thing they now actually try to teach modelling in L1😂
oh do they? that's good to hear. the merger accounting stuff in l2 was actually good too.
