CMA is for management accounting. If you are doing management accounting, and want to special in management accounting, do CMA
CFA is for finance and investment. It is for investment bank but it is hard to enter this industry. I would suggest that you take it after you get in the industry.
CPA is for general accounting (financial acc and management acc) and auditing. It is good if you want to be an accounting manager in a firm or an audit.
In my humble opinion, you should take CPA, and if you are interested, then take CFA (because level I and level II exams contain lots of questions from financiial accounting). Then you are so so powerful. CMA is not that important, when compared to both.
