CMA vs CIMA: Worth it?

    Hi all,

    Hope everyone is keeping safe during this time.

    I have recently been contemplating working towards obtaining the Certified Management Accountant qualification (with IMA as opposed to CIMA). My primary background is in Corporate Banking (Project Management & now Credit Risk Management), but I did a 1.5 years stint in a Big4 (not in Audit).

    Although I enjoy being back in banking and working in Credit Risk, I have been contemplating the CMA in order to move into management level either in the bank itself or back in a Big4 Advisory (which would allow me to manage engagements etc..).

    I am not particularly interested in the ACCA as this is not really in line with my personal ambitions, especially since it is a 3 year commitment.

    Is the CMA worth it?

    Thank you.
