Seeing the above list, you find that all Fund Managers are an engineer. Additionally, they have acquired MBA, MMS, or PGDM degree in Finance.
They are also having CFA certificates. Further analyzing details, I found, they have a minimum of 10 years of experience in the Finance sector after their additional Finance degree.
Technical exposure of Engineers must help them to make a better decision for selecting Technical companies for investment. Technical knowledge is an additional benefit compared to others from Commerce & Economics Background.
CONCLUSION:- An Engineer is easily acceptable in the Finance sector. This is quite a new opportunity for Engineers.
After 5 years in your field, you may acquire an MBA, MMS, PGDM or CFA degree, if you want to enter this sector. More details about the CFA course are here.
