According to the U.S. Department of Labor, employment for financial analysts is expected to grow 6 percent through 2028, about as fast as the average for all careers. Employment for personal financial advisors is expected to grow by 7 percent during this same time span, which is faster than the average. Demand will be driven by the widening range and increasing complexity of financial products and the need for investment professionals to specialize. Competition for jobs will remain tough, though, especially for high level and managerial positions.
