Financial Managers

Significant Points

• About 3 out of 10 work in finance and insurance industries.
• A bachelor's degree in finance, accounting, or a related field is the minimum academic preparation, but many employers increasingly seek graduates with a master's degree in business administration, economics, finance, or risk management.
• Experience may be more important than formal education for some financial manager positions—most notably, branch managers in banks.
• Jobseekers are likely to face competition.
