Hello,

There is no direct entrance for a chartered accountant to be Investment Bankers. But as a matter of fact, a CA can become good Investment bankers due to their exclusive study of finance, equity market, debt market,capital market, IPO, securitization, Mergers & Acquisitions, Valuation technique etc.

Hope this helps!!!

Thank you.
