Banker

CPA (Certified Public Accountant), CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst), and investment banker are all professionals within the financial sector, but they each have distinct scopes of work. CPAs primarily focus on accounting, auditing, and taxation. They ensure accurate financial records, provide assurance services, and offer expertise in tax planning and compliance. CPAs often work in public accounting firms, corporations, or government agencies.

CFAs, on the other hand, specialize in investment management and analysis. They are skilled in areas such as portfolio management, financial analysis, and asset valuation. CFAs are commonly found working in investment firms, banks, or as independent financial advisors, where they assess investment opportunities and manage clients' assets.

Investment bankers facilitate the issuance of securities and provide advisory services for mergers, acquisitions, and other financial transactions. They help companies raise capital, structure deals, and navigate complex financial matters. Investment bankers work in investment banks or financial advisory firms, collaborating closely with corporate clients and other financial institutions.
