ACCA and CFA they both are very different fields and first of all you have to select your target, i mean if it is for investment sector then their is no better choice other than CFA, CFA is basically specialization in investment sector, As you told that you are alreay BS(Business Administration-Finance) i think ACCA will be a wastage of time for you, why don't you think about LIFA its very cheap in cost as compared to CFA and it may give you exemptions from Strage 1 and 2 and you only need to attempt stage3 "4.5 hrs" assessment...
CFA is first of all having no exemptions, secondly its cost which is much much higher than LIFA, another advantage of LIFA is that It has no pre set benchmark of passing slab i mean there is no 75%, but in CFA you should have to Obtain atleast 75%...
I would suggest you to first complete your LIFA then you can switch your career in CFA on the basis of LIFA...
