<br />I do not think CFA is related to management consultancy. According to my information CFA is related to Finance or Financial management. Secondly pakistani market is not mature enough for CFA, therefore no use of CFA is Pakistan. Pakistani market is not even mature for ACCA and ACA.
Why you want to do CFA after ACCA, y u want to change your field.
Anyway if you want to do CFA, best of luck, Its sound you like studying and want to study throughout your life. One qualification is more than enough, after gaining one qualification one should concentrate of using knowledge gained through qualification rather going qualifications after qualification.
have you ever thought when you will use your knowlege gained in ACCA 3.6 or p2 paper, 3.7 or p4 paper, ie prepare groop financial account including foreign subsidiaries etc or carry out investment appraisal involving foreign currency etc, may be never in your life or if you will use this knowledge then it must be after having at least 10 yrs post membership experience.
You do not have other things to do in life?. Can I ask who is giving these kinds of advice in Pakistan to students to go for qualifications after qualifications.
Anyway best of luck with your studies.

thanks for your interest khalid Bhai
i was reading your reply reagarding CFA's releveance in the pakistani market in another thread too.it was very difficult to digest the fact that such qualifications are of no use in pakistan.anyway,my intention is not to stay in pakistan so no need to worry about this factor.and when i qualify acca,inshallha and hopefully i wd be hardly be 21.so i hav time to go for another ambitious degree,to add value to my CV,
the options available for me are CFA and CA.but i dont think CA would benefit me after completing ACCA.so CFA is the only viable option apparent.
besides,i know of many cfas working in ferguson in the management division on the complex Basell 2 projects.
the only concern for me is that i dont want to get in the banking sector due to religious ideas.
so im trying to figure out a career,if there is in any other market with CFA.
