A typical financial analyst working in Cambodia brings home around 4,329,941 KHR a month before tax. Entry-level pay starts near 23,878,400 KHR, and the top of the ladder reaches roughly 82,561,600 KHR for the most experienced and specialised people in the role.

How financial analyst pay ranges in Cambodia

A good way to think about salary in Cambodia is to look at the distribution rather than the headline average. Half of all financial analysts in Cambodia earn less than 56,041,700 KHR a year, and the other half earn more. That middle number is the median, and it is usually more useful than the average for answering "is my pay normal here".

Looking at the quartiles fills in the picture. A quarter of earners take home less than 36,001,200 KHR (the 25th percentile), and a quarter clear 74,879,200 KHR (the 75th percentile). The middle 50% of financial analysts sit somewhere inside that band, which is where the typical reader of this page probably lives.

The very lowest reported salaries sit around 23,878,400 KHR. The highest stretch to 82,561,600 KHR, though only a small fraction of earners ever reach that level. If you are deciding whether your own offer or current pay is reasonable, work out which of those four bands you would fall into and use that as your reference point.

Financial analyst pay by experience in Cambodia

Years of experience is the single biggest lever on pay for a financial analyst in Cambodia, ahead of education and almost any other single factor. The longer you have been in the role, the more your employer can trust you to handle complexity, mentor others and act independently, all of which command higher pay. The chart below shows how the typical financial analyst salary changes as you move through the career ladder.

  • 0-2 Years
    27,118,300 KHR
  • 2-5 Years
    +34% from previous
    36,240,700 KHR
  • 5-10 Years
    +48% from previous
    53,521,300 KHR
  • 10-15 Years
    +22% from previous
    65,280,600 KHR
  • 15-20 Years
    +9% from previous
    71,161,900 KHR
  • 20+ Years
    +8% from previous
    76,921,100 KHR

The single largest jump on the ladder is from 2 - 5 Years to 5 - 10 Years, where pay rises by about 48%. That is the point at which a financial analyst typically goes from "competent in the role" to "the person other people in the team learn from", and the market pays well for that step.


Financial analyst pay by education in Cambodia

Education sits alongside experience as one of the biggest factors driving financial analyst pay in Cambodia. Higher qualifications consistently pull higher salaries, but the size of the gap tends to be smallest at junior levels and widens as people move up. Two people in the same role with the same years of experience but different degrees can end up earning very different money once they reach mid-career.

Below is the average financial analyst salary in Cambodia broken down by the highest level of education a worker has completed.

Financial analyst gender pay gap in Cambodia

The gender pay gap is a stubborn feature of almost every labour market, and Cambodia is no exception. Male financial analysts in Cambodia earn an average of 55,801,900 KHR a year, while female financial analysts earn around 47,999,400 KHR. That works out to a 16% gap in favour of men, even when comparing people doing the same work.

A pay gap of this size has a real long-term cost. Over a typical thirty-year career it can add up to several years of pay, and it compounds through pensions, retirement contributions and bonus-linked stock. Some of the gap is explained by women being more likely to work part-time, take career breaks, or be steered toward lower-paying specialisations. Some of it is straightforward unequal pay for the same job, which is harder to defend.

Pay raises for a financial analyst in Cambodia

Most countries hand out at least some kind of pay raise every year, typically when an employee's contract is reviewed or as a cost-of-living adjustment to keep wages roughly in step with inflation. The rhythm and size of those raises varies hugely between industries.

A typical worker doing this role in Cambodia sees a raise of about 9% every 28 months, which works out to roughly 4% on an annual basis. That figure is the typical underlying rate; in years where inflation runs high you can usually expect a bit more, and in flat-economy years a bit less.

Across all jobs in Cambodia, the national average raise is around 5% every 28 months.

Some roles are paid almost entirely in base salary; others lean heavily on bonus structures tied to revenue, project completion or company performance.
