Beyond B.Com: Charting the right path for a future in finance & accounting

Every year, thousands of students in India graduate with a Bachelor of Commerce degree, stepping into a rapidly changing financial landscape. While traditional career paths like banking, finance, and chartered accountancy remain relevant, industry demands are shifting toward specialised skills such as financial analysis, global taxation, and digital accounting. As global finance and accounting roles advance, professionals with internationally recognised certifications are better positioned to secure opportunities in multinational corporations, Global Capability Centers, and emerging finance hubs. Why Global Accounting Certifications Are Key Unlike conventional degrees, professional certifications such as US CPA, US CMA, and EA validate specialised expertise in financial management, auditing, taxation, and global accounting standards. With the rise of outsourced financial services and digital transformation, professionals with structured training in global accounting standards and industry best practices are better positioned for high-growth opportunities.
