A financial data analyst prepares financial reports that serve as summary information for managers. The economic data analyst is responsible for identifying relevant insights and compiling analytical reports that enable other employees in the company to make sound decisions.

The main difference between a financial analyst vs. a data analyst is that the former only works with accounting and financial figures. The latter works with a wide range of numbers from different industries.

Demand for analytics-driven decision-making across the business has continuously increased.  As more departments build analytic capabilities, finance analytics governance becomes unclear. What role should finance analytics play for the company? How do the best finance teams support analytics?

The primary qualifications for getting a job as a financial data analyst include a bachelor’s degree in economics or finance and several years of work experience. Many financial data analysts start by interning. You can then move into a junior analyst position before becoming a full-time data analyst.
