Hello Ganesh, To become a financial Advisory or Analyst, it is very important to get an MBA degree in banking and finance. It would surely help you to make your base strong in banking and finance but at the same time, you will also get hands-on experience by getting into an internship. To pursue MBA in banking and finance I would recommend you to go for Symbiosis School of Banking and Finance (SSBF). The Faculty over there has expertise knowledge of BFSI Sector, whereas the placement provided at that institute covers many reputed companies excelling in the BFSI sector like Reliance, Yes Bank, HDFC Bank and many more. Thanks.
