Better career path: Financial Analyst or Credit Analyst?

I’m a recent collegiate graduate and in the later stages of the interview process of two separate fields, Financial Analyst and Credit Analyst. I was curious to which field provides the best career path and/or exit opportunities should I ever decide to move areas. Both jobs would be at a regional sized commercial bank. Thanks.
