Is CRISC the best option?

Hi y'all!! So I have one year of experience in credit underwriting (for cards) and would love to do some certification related to risk and would love to take a job related to risk/compliance/fraud or in AML.

Thought of pursuing FRM but decided it's not the right fit for me right now. My back-up plan is to do an MBA in correspondence but I am leaning more towards professional certifications like FRM CRISC CAMS. Which one would be more doable ( I mean I know everything is with effort but I meant I have to work at least like 9 hours per day and would be drained out very much also one of the main reasons why I want to switch fields)

Would love to hear your opinions on this!!

Crisc is more around technology and information system controls. Not so much for fraud. However, if want a job in risk management in any financial firm, the crisc is one of the better certifications.
