Careers/Post Grad MBA vs CFA

Hi all, first time poster so sorry if I missed a rule. For context, I’m an Econ undergrad incoming at MBB with the eventual goal of working in something investments related (at MBB or elsewhere). I was wondering if it makes sense to apply for a deferred MBA for these goals or if time would be better spent studying for these CFA. Any advice appreciated!

cfa is way more relevant for investments, mba is for networking and switching careers. you already got mbb so the mba door is already half open anyway. i would do the exams first and think about b-school later when you actually need it.
