Hi, For those desirous of making a career for themselves in the field of commerce, two courses are very popular namely CA and CFA. Though both have similarities belonging to the same stream of commerce, the areas of study in both these courses are quite different. **While a CA is a prerequisite in all sorts of establishments, CFA's are more likely to be absorbed in large companies in financial sector. **While a CA is mainly concerned with book keeping and auditing, CFA's have ample job opportunities as their expertise is required by corporations while making financial decisions. **Despite the fact that CFA's get more salary and get absorbed in different financial positions, the demand for CA's is never going to be low as they are essential for every company, small or big. In nutshell, while a CA is all the time bothered with the accounts of a company and also sometimes auditing a company, a CFA is a specialized professional who looks after financial decisions and investment policies of big companies.
