Anyone seen a successful move from risk to FP&A? I do have the CPA but haven't had much luck.

Going to a more traditional financial analyst (aka accounting and financial reporting) role seems doable but FP&A really wants the modeling background that I don't have. Maybe I should just settle so I can get out of risk.
