If I had to go with this, I would say that completing your degree first is a better option why because once you start doing job studies hardly matters to you because you have already started working and people doing MBA want to get a good placement which you already have so, what will be the need for you to get back to studies? Once, you get a job, you gain experience which matters if a company wants to hire you then there's no point of returning back just to get a degree.
Hence, for me, it's important to complete degree first then move to corporate sector because it filters your interest and gets you better opportunities to work. The

Dear student,
The basic difference between both the PG courses is that in MFM, you get to study more specifically about finance only, whereas, in general MBA, you get to study general management in the first year and then you go for specialization in the 2nd year of the course where you can opt for finance.
The benefits are good, you will be one of the finance specific professionals in case of MFM and in case of MBA, you will be a management and finance professional.
So, yes both these do have benefits, it's up to you which course you want to pursue.

Sorry to disappoint you my friend but it won't help much.
First of all for getting B Schools outside India you need minimum experience of around 5 years. Foreign B-Schools don't accept freshers. So first look into that. CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) is certifications for those who are looking to get into money/asset management. If you are looking to work as an equity research analyst of portfolio manager and other such jobs then CFA can help. But again there are 3 levels of CFA. For it to be of any use you need to clear at least two levels then only you would have enough knowledge to work as an equity research analyst or other such

Yes, it increases your chances but it is not necessary.
So, why do CFA or FRM? These are courses for individuals interested in specific fields. CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) is for the ones who want to go in money/asset management. Those interested in equity research and analysis finds this course interesting. FRM (Financial Risk Management) is for those interested in risk management of various investments. So pursue these courses only if you want to go into that particular field and are genuinely interested. CFA takes almost one year for each level. There are three such levels. Only having level one will not help much for your care

Hello Ankit,
With unemployment at almost 50% for the fresh engineering graduates, it very good idea that you have thought of. India's population is growing and hence insurance persons required is also increasing. Please approach any private or govt. insurance companies. They are always on the lookout out to recruit young dynamic persons as agents.
