I have a msc finance top 30 in the world, tho not oxbridge. Currently in sell side equity research, fresh without any internship. No cfa.

Sorry I didn't follow since v1, but those masters holders you're referring to, curious how many with first class honours and from top uni? Did they network their balls off? Hold overseas offer when looking for job?

I'm not saying a msc finance is going to work like a magic cert, but it adds value if you know how to use it. I might just be lucky, who knows.

Master in finance is useless. Unless u decide to go thru education line but need continue to phd.

Take cfa only if u really decide to walk finance industry path and work in invesment bank, analyst etc.
