Dear,
Yes, that will have a positive impact on skills of portfolio management and financial planning but that will give you a good jump if you are already having experience in the related field or if you are having MBA finance degree.
This certification is globally accepted and valued too.
All the best!

You can go for BBA if you don't want to pursue Masters in business. If you are thinking to pursue MBA in future then now B.Com will be good option.

Instead of doing two things at once better to do CA first. After completing CA, go for it if you think you need CFA with CA. Focus on one thing, achieve it, go to next goal which you want to accomplish. And you can spend unlimited time for your career and enhance it further. Don't worry.

Dear,
The CFA program provides a strong foundation of advanced investment analysis and real-world portfolio management skills that will give you a career advantage.
But, MBA degree give you overall knowledge of Finance, Marketing, Strategy, Planning and skills to survive in Competitive market.
According to me, once your MBA degree will finish and you are interested for Finance or Portfolio management profile, you can think of certification courses to boom up your growth and knowledge.
MBA Degree is widely recognized by employers.
All the best.

The Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) program is quite easier than the Chartered Accountancy (CA) program. While both programs are demanding and difficult, the CA program calls for more focus, dedication, and experience than the CFA program. Completing the CFA program requires at least two years of study. With an average passing percentage of 0.5%, CA is regarded as the hardest course in the world. When compared to CA, the passing percentage for CFA is substantially higher. It appears that the pass rate is 10% on average.
