CA is still and will remain the Gold Standard for the Audit and Assurance sector in Pakistan.
Big 4 operate and a fair amount of competition is still there due to mid tier firms.
CA is a good option.
You come from A' levels, you get like 2 or 3 basic papers exempted in Module A and B.
If you're capable you complete ABCD in 2 years time and join firm and do E and F alongside.
in around 5 years, you are an ACA.
CFA, some say the economy of Pakistan is not sophisticated enough for growth of CFA so a saturation point may soon be reached. Ass time goes by people are shifting their attention to CFA and this would lead to more students and more competition and lesser salaries and shorter contracts and so on so forth twisty.
And i don't think you can start CFA directly after A' Levels.
If you plan for CA + CFA thats a really long commitment.
Choose wisely, do what you feel you have an inclination to, u may find urself stuck and u wont know how u got there, the cae with 99% of our countries students.
You can conquer the world, determinant, how committed are you?
