ok, so it’s investment management, but per your post on that thread. On [CFA Institute Website](http://www.cfainstitute.org/cfaprog/index.html), both investment management and investment banking, together with financial analysis are what CFA charter holder are really into.
But anyway, the topic of having CFA as an advantage is being discussed. As your previous example of MBA HBS graduate value. Did it reduce the value? I wouldn’t say no, but then if you take a look at a broader view of the MBA designation 20 years ago compare to the MBA now, you can see a great decrease, just because not only Harvard or Ivy League schools are the only place that offer MBA. Did employer pay the amount of attention to the school that issue you MBA 20 years ago as much as they’re doing now? Um… I don’t think so.
