Finance Jobs | Investment Jobs | Taxation Jobs

A financial analyst is the person, who makes an assessment of the financial needs of the company by thorough research work and analyzes whether it should make an investment choice. Financial analysts’ job is to handle an entity’s money with great responsibility and discretion. Projections have been made about the growth of business and investment, and with that, financial analyst jobs in India are ready to increase through the coming decade.

Educational Qualification
A bachelor’s degree in any discipline with 50 percent marks is all you need to enroll yourself in a finance course. Those who are pretty skilled in handling numbers, are deemed to fare well in this profession.

For a career in finance analysis, a student should preferably possess bachelor’s degree in business administration, finance, accounting or statistics. If you’re not a business major, don’t worry. Remember, at the beginning of the job, every company imparts training to the newly appointed batch of financial analysts. Your counterparts with a business background do not necessarily start off with an extra edge.
