How much is the monthly salary of a financial analyst?

The global average annual salary for chartered financial analysts is US$178,000. The annual income of a Chartered Financial Analyst in the United States is US$190,000, which is nearly 50% higher than the average annual salary of Harvard MBAs of US$128,000.

In Hong Kong, my country, the average annual income of CFAs also reaches US$136,000. Taking the CFA exam requires a lot of investment. The registration fee ranges from 400 to 900 US dollars. Including original textbooks and training fees, an average exam costs 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. But the rewards are also extremely high. Those who obtain the CFA qualification are generally significantly better than their peers in terms of income and remuneration.

Extended information:

Domestic institutions have common problems such as low level of investment analysis and a shortage of qualified talents with expertise in financial investment analysis.

There is an urgent desire for high-end financial talents: many companies clearly state during recruitment that those with work experience and professional certificates (CPA, CFA, RFM) are preferred, especially foreign-funded institutions.

According to incomplete statistics, our country will need 150,000 professionals in the financial field every year in the next ten years. The outlook for CFA certificate holders is very positive.
