Chief Operating Officer Saxo India Private Limited

I have passed all three levels of the CFA® Program. I gave my Level I exam in Dec 2012, Level II in June 2013 and Level III in June 2014 and have also received the CFA charter recently. The program gave me immense knowledge about the financial industry. It gave me the in-depth understanding on various asset classes. Though I had never taken up this course for any professional gain, I gained practical knowledge which I could apply in my work.

Associate Analyst - Equity Research team at CRISIL

I took the Level I of the CFA Program exam in June 2013 while I was in my final year of graduation. I have earned the B.com (H) degree from Sri Guru Gobind Singh College of Commerce, University of Delhi. It was an ambitious decision to take the Level I exam which I knew would clash with my final exams of graduation. However, with continuous support of the faculty at Finguru, I happened to clear it. I cleared the Level II exam in June 2014 and Level III exam in June 2015.

It was because of my preparations for exam that I happened to clear some of really grilling entry level interviews in the area of finance. That also has a lot to do with the guidance received from Finguru and Mr. Sushant Suri.

The good thing with the program is the relevance of the curriculum with the practical and real professional world. I would be absolutely right in saying that studying for CFA Program helps me at work almost daily while doing some of very complex assignments.

I am working in the area of Credit and Risk management. The CFA Program has enabled me to look at variety of financial products from the prospective of financial due diligence, suitability of these products in individual and institutional portfolio and likely impact of various external factors on the performances of these products

Senior Financial Analyst, Third Wave Solutions Pvt Ltd

CFA Program has been integral part of my career plans, as it allowed me to switch from an Engineering background and enter the Finance Sector - as a fresher it is very difficult to get a job in the finance domain unless you have some sort of qualification or certification. Even clearing Level I or II exam of the CFA Program helps a lot in that regard. Furthermore, I think the content is very well developed and the knowledge gained during the course of study helps in several ways in terms of adding value to one's career and personal growth.

Investment Consultant, Mercer

I gave my Level I of the CFA Program exam in June 2014, Level II in June 2015 and Level III in June 2016 and passed all three exams in my first attempt. Wow it feels so special to climb the so called Mount Everest of the Wall street without any hiccups.

When I started this journey I wasn't sure till what point or which level or in which attempt I will loose my faith and will accept the defeat. Finguru classes gave the perfect blend of knowledge and motivation to keep going on. Without the guidance and constant support this wouldn't have been possible Sir. You have been my best mentor in the entire life. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.

Clearing exams has given me a good learning opportunity to learn my job related concepts in a better way. I was able to enhance my performance at work and it gave me recognition as well at workplace. As calculating management fee and Incentive fee are my primary job responsibilities and it was the part of the curriculum as well.

I would like to thank you for all the unconditional support and continual feedback regarding my performance. It provided me the right guidance and confidence to conquer the exams. Sir truly speaking without your guidance it wouldn't the reality. I would like to dedicate my success to you. Thank you for the wonderful mentoring. Hope to have a everlasting guidance and blessings from you.

Pursuing MBA

I gave my Level I exam in December 2012, followed by Level II in June 2013 and Level III in June 2014 and have cleared all three Levels of the CFA Program.

The CFA Program curriculum has helped me build a sound foundation in the field of Finance. My knowledge bank and confidence have definitely been boosted to an extent where I can comprehend an Industry Professionals opinion and provide reasonable arguments of my own. In the nut shell I feel better equipped to face the challenges that would be thrown at me in my upcoming career.  With the help of the the three Levels of the CFA Program curriculum that I have managed to pass, I am able to get Interview Calls from reputed organizations, thus providing me options and not just accepting whatever I am able to get my hands upon.

Currently, I am not employed- preparing for GMAT. But upon clearing Level II, I was able to secure a position with Copal Amba as a Senior Analyst in the Investment Research Division. 

Finally, thanks a lot Sushant ! This journey would not have been possible without your support and motivation. God Bless Finguru!! Cheers!

Investment Analyst, RCPL

I passed my Level I exam of the CFA Program in December 2013, Level II in June 2014 and Level III in June 2016.

The CFA Program has changed my professional life drastically. It covers almost every aspect of finance with theoretical as well as practical knowledge of the finance industry which has given me a good exposure and ultimately a good job in the relevant domain. The syllabi is very much conceptual which is helping me a lot in my job. I cannot miss to thank Finguru for this as it has served as the platform which made it possible for me to complete both the levels consequently within a time span of just one year. As I was not initially from the field of Finance and barely possessed any knowledge of finance, yet the knowledge imparted by Finguru helped me not just complete my level I & II but also developped a better understanding of all the concepts. According to me, nothing is better than the CFA Program for Investment Professionals.

Currently I'm working with RCPL as an Investment Analyst. 

Head of Consulting Practice - Asia, ICF International

The CFA Program has greatly improved my understanding of finance.  Engineers typically struggle with accounting and finance and being one, i was no different.  But the rigor of the learning and self-study needed for the exam ensured that I could not only understand but also be fluent in finance.

Assistant Manager, Global Banking & Markets, HSBC

The very first time I heard about CFA Program was in 2012 and it took me more than a year to evaluate and make up my mind to sit for the Level 1 exam in 2013.

CFA Program gives you the right kind of exposure in domain of finance and if you talk about specifically Investment domain, this is the BEST course of the world. Right from basics of Quant to details of Valuations, everything is covered.

I've worked with BankAm in their Investment Management process and currently part of Global Banking & Markets team of HSBC. And the one thing I can count on and which gives me confidence is that I can do any job and understand every aspect of the financial world because of the learning and understanding gained through CFA program.

Also, having cleared exams, I could manage to secure a seat at the Indian School of Business class of 2016. 

Currently, I work with Evalueserve as a business analyst. I'm part of a team which assists a London based restructuring client in providing corporate advisory solutions.

Wealth Specialist, Standard Chartered Bank I passed my level II exam of the CFA Program in June'15 and level III in June '16 

CFA Program has added a lot of value at professional and personal level. I got a chance to learn a lot about my line of work which in turn helped me change my job profile to something which is more fulfilling and rewarding. It not only taught the basics of finance but also gave a wider perspective about this mystical world of finance!!!

A simple pursuit of this charter, talks a lot about your desire to learn and excel in all walks of life. Needless to say, it has also earned me some respect. I would strongly recommend this course to a serious candidate since it will surely add a lot of value in the long term.

Finally a big thanks to Sushant who is always methodical in his teaching approach and has always been available for doubt clearing sessions and frequent doses of pep talks.;-)

Credit Risk Analyst- Royal Bank of Scotland The CFA Program has given me direction in my career. It has also given me a sound theoretical knowledge of key aspects of finance and investment. 

I was earlier employed with PwC Gurgaon and have worked there for almost 3 years. I am currently working as a Credit Risk Analyst with Royal Bank of Scotland.

Finguru greatly helped in my process of preparation. The classes gave me a sound foundation and clarity of concepts. Instead of having to go through the content on my own in the first go it was very helpful to have done it once in the classes. 

I would like to thank Sushant Sir and Finguru for the support and mentoring that was provided. I received mentoring and guidance not only from the exam perspective but also from a career perspective in the course of my association with Finguru. The entire coaching pattern helped build a routine and ease in achieving clarity of the content. I have been actively recommending Finguru as a very reliable coaching partner to crack the exams because I personally felt it had a huge contribution to my success.

Manager - Investor Relations, Jubilant Life Sciences Limited I have passed all the three levels of the CFA Program. Coming from a non-finance background, I used to always find it difficult to convince the Bankers and investors about my point of view. I now feel more equipped to respond to their queries and it helps a lot particularly during negotiations. Besides, I get tremendous respect when people find out that I have cleared these exams. 

Sushant knows the material well and offers very clear perspective with practical examples outside the books.

Manager – Financial Services Advisory at PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in New York. As a consultant to global systemically important banks (G-SIBS) in the U.S., I advise clients on risk management and strategic issues. My professional experience and academic qualifications are critical to serving clients and marketing my firm’s capabilities. CFA Program is one of the most imminent and respected affiliations on Wall Street and my candidacy in the program has helped me distinguish myself within the firm.

Research & Business Analyst - M&A - Eli Global CFA Program curriculum has enhanced my knowledge base and it gives a competitive edge in the investment job market. I was able to clear all the three levels in one go (Dec 2014, June 2015 and June 2016 respectively) in the least possible time. The only person apart from my family members who entrusted in me, the confidence that I will be able to manage the exams in this sequence was Sushant Suri.

Not only, has Sushant Sir proved to be a good "Fin-Guru" but a strong motivator too throughout this journey. His incessant support; academic and motivational proved to be the recipe for my success. A Big Big thanks to him. Apart from the study sessions, Finguru classes involve good discussions that make the concepts crystal clear with their classic real-world examples.

I kicked off with my career at Fidelity Worldwide Investments in the Fund Operations profile when after 2 years I decided to switch to investment research; however, I wanted to gain insights into how are big bucks managed at fund houses and the subsequent investments made. The answer I got after hours of research was CFA Program. This indeed turned out to be a function-shift decision for my career. I have also worked with Eli Global as a Research & Business Analyst in the M&A team. Currently, I am working with the Mercer Investment Consulting team.

The CFA Program, considered to be the most respected affiliation at Wall Street, has a comprehensive curriculum which, in my opinion, will reap handsome benefits in the long run. (As they say, huge returns come with time = Value Investing!!!).

Research Associate, S&P Capital IQ The CFA Program curriculum has helped me by building a sound foundation in the field of Finance. My knowledge and confidence have increased many fold as now I can easily understand what Industry Professionals opinion are and can present my viewpoint too. I feel better prepared for the future challenges.

Finguru has actually provided me with the much needed direction for my preparations. Although curriculum demands lots of self study but one need guidance to know from where to start and where to end that was correctly given by Finguru classes. I am from science background still I never felt difficulty while studying because of the coaching I got from Finguru. The methodology adopted by all the faculty is very good and they make sure that each and every student of any background understands the concepts very clearly before going into complexities of the topic. They always motivate you to ask more and more doubts so that things get clearer and clearer. I would highly recommend to go for FINGURU classes if you are planning to prepare for exams.

Dy. Manager, BPCL I am a CA and began preparing for CFA Program because I was always interested in deeper financial analysis, and financial topics. I am always interested in numbers, accountancy and financial products and analysis. CFA Program has given an additional qualification to me, and opened a number of opportunities in the field of finance. There are innumerous opportunities and the choosing the right area at the start is very important.

As far as exam is concerned, working on the basics is very important. And focus on the strengths is the key. I cleared Level I, Level II & Level III in Dec 2014, June 2015 and June 2016 respectively. Reading through the topics is important because some topics go on till Level III, and coming back every now and then gives a new insight.

I hope to use the skills learnt during the CFA Program to my advantage, may be by starting with one area and then diversifying across the available opportunities.

Senior Research Associate (Investments) - S&P Global My typical day involves finding solutions to data and analytics problems for private equity and venture capital clients. CFA Program has provided me with deep understanding of investment industry. In addition, the designation gives instant credibility among team members and clients alike.

Also, CFA Program's focus on Ethics (tested in all three levels) exposes candidates to scenarios which are hard to match in any other finance program globally. This leads to learning beyond models and numbers.

Research Analyst - Visible Alpha CFA Program has always been on the back of my mind when I was pursuing my MBA as only MBA doesn't provide that deep knowledge of Finance, what CFA Program has taught me. The program has added a lot of value at professional and personal level.

The curriculum demands sheer dedication as without that it won't be possible. Moreover, Sushant has been a superb trainer throughout with extensive knowledge of every topic what he covers. Overall, an awesome journey till date but way to go and grab opportunities further

Director and Partner, Drastr Consulting LLP. I passed Level III exam in 2019. I am an engineering graduate with professional experience in management consulting and entrepreneurship. My life journey led me to a decision to start a financial services company. I joined the CFA program primarily owing to the regulatory requirements for obtaining license from SEBI, as well as to gain a broader domain knowledge and sector credential. CFA program delivered on all fronts.

Finguru classes were of immense help to get a broad contour of the topics with deeper dives into necessary areas before focused self-study. Sushant imparted knowledge with pristine conceptual clarity with discernible ownership of the process, something I found missing in the other classroom provider that I joined for Level I exam. Daniel was always there to help you on all administrative errands. My Level II and Level III classroom experience with Finguru in terms of learning was better than expected. Insider job postings and informative article, which Sushant shared regularly, were icing in the cake.

Unexpected but something that merit highlight are the friends I met in the Finguru classes. This close circle of friends from diverse backgrounds was my support group as well as comrades in arm during the emotionally draining ride towards the charter.

I wish Sushant and Finguru team a heartiest thank you and wish them good luck in all their future endeavors.

Investment Consulting, Mercer Currently I’m working with Mercer in the Investment Consulting team. I started pursuing CFA Program in Dec 2016 post my MBA and passed Level III CFA exam and received my charter this year in 2019. For the first two levels I did self study and passed on first attempt but didn’t get through level III exam on the first attempt. So, I decided to join classroom coaching from FinGuru for CFA Level III exam and that entirely transformed my approach which was much required since Level III exam demands an altogether different strategy and articulation especially for the AM portion. Since I had a full time job, the main concern for me was to execute the examination strategy by effectively utilizing the time and Sushant’s classes definitely helped me through. Through participation in the CFA Program I have certainly gained knowledge, skills, and ethical grounding plus every level of the CFA exam was a milepost for my career path. I would highly recommend FinGuru to all the potential CFA candidates. Thank you Sushant for all the mentoring and guidance.

 I am currently a Level III candidate in the CFA Program.  I have passed Level II exam in June 2018.

Completed Graduations - BA (Hons) Economics

B.com (H) ,external auditor I was late in realizing my interest towards finance and I’m speaking as a fresher into the industry. I cleared all my CFA exams in the first attempt while working as an external auditor and later volunteering for some NGO’s. Coming from a different background and knowing nothing about core finance, clearing the examinations wasn’t easy; it needs good practice, understanding every bit of it through logics (rather than cramming) and most importantly a good mentor.

About the curriculum; the content is practically relevant and really interesting with case studies and examples to increase your understandability and recallability.

All the exams were different, so were the strategies towards clearing them; the only common thing with all the levels was hard work and Finguru. I can’t really imagine clearing all the three levels in the shortest time span possible without the two. A big thanks to Sushant Suri for doing his job with great commitment and efficiency.

Now, I have a sound foundation in finance, I’m just confidently waiting to get placed in a job role that compliments my knowledge too. Let’s hope for the best! :)

Lead Consultant, Genpact Headstrong Capital Markets I started the CFA Program in 2016 and have cleared my Level III in June 2019.

By profession I am a software engineer working in BFSI domain. Primary reason to pursue CFA Program is my interest in financial domain. Though it was never meant to help me in my career directly but it certainly helped me in learning key financial concepts which I was able to apply practically. This helped my in establishing my self as SME in my field.

CFA curriculum covers wide range of asset classes along with various aspects of Corporate finance, Accounting and Economics. It is extensive, detailed, interesting but definitely not the easy one. With no financial background or any experience in finance initially it looked difficult however faculty (Especially Sushant) at Finguru made it easy. They not only focus on clearing the concepts but also gives you insights of how to attempt the exam.

At the end I would say this journey not only teaches you finance but it will also teach you patience, dedication and perseverance. Apart from helping you grow professionally CFA also gives you the sense of achievement at personal level.

Doing calculations, making budgets for college events or just analyzing the graphs and charts kind of made me feel happy! I always wanted to do something in the field of finance and when I heard about CFA Program from my manager in KPMG, I just knew that I have to study all of this. I cleared my Level I exam in June 2016 (while I was working in KPMG) and Level II in June 2018. I am currently looking forward for my Level III exam of the CFA Program in June 2019.

I must admit that the way the content is taught in the classes makes it so easy and convenient for us to grasp. The notes that are provided for each level are so compact, yet intact. They were of great help in the revision process. Thank you Finguru for your continuous support and motivation!

This has not been an easy journey for me since I came from a completely non-finance background but I did not give up.
The CFA Program helped me get into the financial industry and start my career. After getting into investment banking and its curriculum has started to make a lot more sense since I can see the practical application of the curriculum and that's what made me believe that CFA Program is based on real life application. 

Finguru has provided me with the right direction and tips to prepare for the exam. Sushant and Ankur have been the best teachers since they taught the most complex topics in the most simplest way possible. Finguru has played a major role in my success and I can't thank them enough for it. They faculty pushes you toward achieving your dream since along with hardwork, right guidance is very important in moving towards your goal and Finguru made me achieve my goal which at one point I thought was impossible. I highly recommend other prospective candidates to join Finguru to prepare for the exam.

Thanks once again. This success wouldn't have been possible without syour support.

The program has propelled my career in finance. I now have the requisite knowledge and confidence to even further build my skillset.
I took the Level I exam in December 16 and was not sure if I could take the Level II examination within a span of 6 months alongside my job, however Sushant made me believe that I could clear it. With his support and encouragement I not only passed Level II exam but also managed to score 70% + in all the subjects.

I am currently working as a analyst in the Transaction Advisory team of Ernst and Young. My current role involves a high degree of practical application of what I have learnt.

Credit Research Analyst- Genpact

I am currently a Level III candidate in the CFA Program. I passed the Level I exam in Dec 2012 and Level II exam in June 2014. 

Prior to choosing to take up the CFA Program, I had a Master's degree in finance. I would say there has been a visible change in my understanding of the concepts, after taking up the course. It has given me a much more analytical and a logical thought process, a completely different outlook towards understanding the finance concepts. Professionally, I feel the respect among peers, management and the clients. For me this program has done a great job of highlighting me in front of the employers.

It has definitely enhanced my finance career path. For prospective I would say, the material is thorough and very extensive, it is NOT easy to crack this exam without planned and proper investment of time. It's not difficult to understand, but requires an implementation of the study plan.

The coveted credential has earned me much more than just a professional degree. It opened a lot of job opportunities for me, which otherwise would not have been possible for me to achieve at this stage of my career. Adding CFA Program certification to your CV is a great thing and it would definitely broaden your outlook towards the finance industry.

Business & Technology Delivery Analyst with Accenture I am currently a Level III candidate in the CFA Program. I was from non finance background (electronics and communication engineering) and was working in an IT company writing codes, when I heard about CFA Program from a friend but didn't know anything beyond the full form of the acronym.

I attended the introductory session about CFA Program by Sushant Sir and I was then convinced that I have to study this course. I joined finguru in Jan 2016 and gave my Level I exam in June 2016 and then Level II in June 2017.

Due to engineering mentality, I am kind of a last minute prepper , I started my Level I prep for June exam on 18th March and for Level II, I started on 3rd April giving me hardly 2.5 and 2 months time respectively. I can genuinely say that if it weren't for Sushant Sir I wouldn't have cleared any of the exams. His video lectures were of immense help. He has the ability to explain complex concepts in a very simple language that it gets registered in your mind by simply listening to him. Apart from video lectures , I also attended his crash course which really sealed the deal. One thing that I really like about crash course is that he connects all subjects together stressing on the links between various subjects and how one thing that we studied in some subject is related to other something we studied in other subject. The whole connect the dots is extremely useful making CFA Program getting etched in our minds like one whole big story.

CFA Program has really added to my knowledge as well as my resume. I understand Economic Times much better now. I will continue my association with Finguru for Level III as well.

I am currently a Level III candidate in the CFA Program. I gave Level II exam in June'14. CFA Program is enhancing my knowledge and make me more skilled to analyse financial markets and do better valuations and use better techniques. Finguru and Sushant sir, you have played key role in believing in me and motivating to study hard and nail Level II. Well you were too optimistic about me clearing it which was really motivating me. 

The best part about was the spirit of the faculty to take classes with full spirit even though you had a tiring schedule. Hats Off to you sir.

CFA Program has added value to better interpret the complexities of the Financial Sector. The curriculum is such defined that it links the macro elements like interest rates with fixed income yielding instruments, financial reporting implications on the valuation of an entity, derivative valuations using advances quantitative techniques and likewise. With a robust commerce and finance background, CFA Program enhances my skill set to link the variables better and look at the larger picture for analogies.

Senior Analyst, Copal Amba I am currently a Level III candidate in the CFA Program. I appeared for Level II exam in June 2015 and cleared my exam in first attempt. But this battle was not that easy, Sushant Sir support was unwinding from first day when he made me realised that it can be done in three months only. All the study sessions were in detail and I find my concepts very strong, this is the only factor which helped me in sailling through this exam. Class notes and CFA curricullum books are necessary and sufficient study material.

CFA Program has enhanced my knowledge base and it gives competitive edge in the finance industry. In my workplace I have seen people planning for CFA Program after completing their MBA (in finance major) or are already CFA candidates, thus it is coming up as a common acceptable professional course of finance industry.

I am currently a Level III candidate in the CFA Program. I gave my Level I exam in December 2016 and Level II exam in June 2017. I cleared both the exams in the first attempt. I am currently also doing Financial Modelling. My main motive for pursuing CFA Program was not to get a job but to get familiar with the terms that I got stuck while reading newspapers, annual reports etc. After clearing Level I and Level II, I feel comfortable while reading financial newspapers, research reports etc. 

Joining Finguru was one of the best decisions I took which saved a lot of my time and helped me clear those exams with expert guidance by Sushant Sir. The recorded videos and notes provided by Finguru were a boon for my last few days preparation

I am currently a Level III candidate in the CFA Program. I started my journey in 2013. Having the CFA charter is a sign of competency, integrity & professionalism in the Investment/Financial field.

I am currently a Level II candidate in the CFA Program. The program adds a lot to our knowledge and also is a different experience altogether. This program in particular is a lot more technical than the other professional programs going on in the country like CA, CMA etc. It is different in the sense that it requires a lot of application and analysis of concepts rather than just mugging them up and throwing up in the exams.

I have passed all three levels of the CFA Program and may be eligible for the CFA charter upon completion of the required work experience. I took the Level I exam in December 2010, and passed the Level III exam in June 2014.

The CFA Program is a systematic, comprehensive and focused curriculum to understand the fundamentals of the world of finance and investing. Having studied the course has given me a thorough understanding of many concepts, and a lot of clarity in this field, which I felt otherwise lacking in the finance based courses I have previously done (I did my bachelors degree in finance, accounting and management). 

Besides this, being able to persevere and complete the three levels after overcoming the world of distractions that many of us must face, I feel a renewed sense of confidence in my ability to achieve anything I set my eyes upon. It is said that the course and the exams are not easy. The only times I felt they were difficult was when I was not prepared and did not put in the hard work required.

Graduated in Economics honours, I have studied Finance in my last year, though it included only basics about options, financial markets etc but enough to create my interest. So i enrolled and appeared for Level I in June 2015 and looking forward to appear for level III in June 2018. 

With God's grace and with cooperation of Sushant Sir and Ankur Sir i was able to score 70 percent above in 9 subjects in Level II. Thank you for all the inspiration you have provided and enthusiasm that made every class enjoyable.
