Business Analyst looking to go into a more finance-related role

Hello,

I am currently a Business Analyst, doing performance reporting at a large asset management company in Canada. I am a Level 3 CFA candidate and I want to switch over to a more finance related role. Perhaps Risk? Is this possible? It seems very hard to make the switch, especially I am not the best at networking. Any tips?
