\nAdvance to a supervisory position<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
After spending a few years as a senior analyst, you get some relevant expertise and experience as a senior financial analyst. Then you can head towards a supervisory position where an entire horde of senior and junior analysts will work under you. They will be performing various tasks like analysis of financial statements for evaluating investor opportunities, making financial models and building up a portfolio after assessing the stocks. All you have to do is monitor all these professionals who are working under you and make the right calls whenever necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n\n- Become a portfolio manager or a fund manager<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
After working as a supervisor, you could either head in the direction of securities or handles some investor's portfolio for them. You could also become a fund manager who again supervises a team of senior analysts. Overall, your sole responsibility would be to head a team, just like in the previous role. The only difference is that this team is considerably larger, and your responsibility is greater than it was before.<\/span><\/p>\n\n- \n
Reach the top of the hierarchy \u2013 A CFO or CIO<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
After 10-15 years, when you start as a junior analyst and progress up the corporate ladder as a senior analyst and then as a supervisor, followed by becoming a manager, there is only one way up. That is when you enter a role in the company's senior management. Of course, these managers can also head down the treasury while supervising groups from several departments. But a prominent professional who has shown capability at every level could easily rise and assume the role of a CFO (chief financial officer) or a CIO (chief investment officer) and handle the company's entire range of financial activities.<\/span><\/p>\nHopefully, this write-up has helped you understand what you need to\u00a0<\/span>become a financial analyst<\/b>\u00a0and what an ideal career path is for such professionals. So, without any delays, start preparing if you wish to reach the top ranks.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Financial Analyst's Guide to Getting Ahead Have you planned to\u00a0become a financial analyst?
