I have the certification. Besides my recomendation is following the comment from Rebecca here comes my thought (I am working as business analyst form the very begining of the profession and I have contribute with the IIBA and now with the PMI, I wrote articles for oficial publications and I have performed conferences from 2010 inside the PMI World Tour between other side. I tell you that because I hope to create critical mass around the certification - hehehehehe):
1-business analysis perform the role to solve business problems that emerges when needs of changes emerges. I have performed the role in software industries, goverment, retail, banking, health care, automotive and others.
2-BA is not related to IT. Your preparation must be based mainly in the PMBOK and the reference list. This linkedin group can help you a lot: PMI Professional in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA) Prep Study Group
VERY IMPORTANT: do not forget to read all the certification related documentation inside the PMI site. IT IS CRITICAL SUCCESS FACTOR

I second Sergio. I have the PMI-PBA certification. BA role is not geared towards software alone and can be applied anywhere where there is a need to realize business goals/strategies successfully by delivering business value. BA translates the business requirements into something that can be clearly understood and executed by the project team's SME's.

PMI-PBA would be an value add and I suggest you to look into it.
