One of the most common question I get asked is, "can I get a a CFA instead of a quantitative masters such as a financial engineering degree?" Once I respond with, "no" which is the answer people don't want to hear, they continue to try and convince me that they are the same or the CFA is better. I'm not here to say one is better than the other. I'm here to show you the differences between the two.
A CFA is NOT a shortcut to working in quantitative finance and most quants don't care about the CFA. Quants who do get it either want it to show they can do traditional finance or as a way to help get promoted because they seem like a financial analyst and not a quant.
