Hi Guys,
I'm a handful of years out of uni. Passed all 3 levels of CFA, with charter pending completion of work experience. I'm thinking of tackling the last 3 actuarial exams. My long term objective is probably to get into an IB front office or corporate finance, my skills are analytical and building spreadsheet models/vba. Currently I work in an unrelated role-reporting.
-I don't have much motivation to go back into a traditional actuarial role, and that's really the value in actuarial qualifications.
-will get me some letters after my name if i finish
-is expensive: about $2500 per course
-pass rate is pretty low ~40%
-looks interesting to an employer on a resume
Thoughts in my position?
Cheers,
GLT
