Hi Jason,
Nice Post I must say, I want your inouts , I wish to persue CFA program would be appearing for L1 soon, however I do not intend to be restricted to be pure Finance role , In my career span of over 5 years now I have worked in Automotive(Operations), Analytics and Banking , would be shifting to a credit rating firm soon , eventuall would like to be in a strategic consulting role , I agree with your views that One needs to have a bigger picture or "Overview" instead of just following Models or forecasts , would like your opinion if CFA would be ideal for me considering my aspirations?
