    This would depend on your interest areas and career aspirations. MBA finance is a full time 2 year course, whereas CFA has 3 levels and has to be taken as an external student based on self-study model. CFA is more focused on capital market, whereas MBA finance is more holistic with exposure to financial management. Both the courses have good scope. You need to refer their curriculum & keeping in mind your interest areas choose the one that suits your interest areas.

    2. Do MBA - Do job where pressure will be low, do CFA -switch company with hi
