DUDE, CFA IS HARDER, PROLLY TAKES LONGER, BUT U CAN DO IT WHILE WORKINING, AND WHEN U PASS, U R AMONG AN ELITE FEW,

MBA FINANCE, WELL IS MBA FINANCE,

EITHER CHOICE U MAKE WILL PAY U COS, IN SOME QUARTERS A CFA CHARTER IS COMPARED TO AN MSC FINANCE.

Thanks for the response guys - Found an answer to my own question on the 7City website -


"CFA® vs MBA or Masters in Finance?
There are many benefits of post-graduate education and it is well worth considering all available options.Whereas MBAs and Masters Degrees vary in content, the CFA charter is globally recognised as a relevant and practical qualification for those looking to further their career in investment banking and fund management.The CFA charter has become mandatory for many investment analysts and portfolio managers.Remember that the cost of completing the CFA Program is significantly less than the cost of an MBA or Masters and you can also work throughout the CFA Program.
"


I also stumbled upon another institution - Securities and Investment Institute. I think they do some good courses that are now gaining recognition in Nigeria.
