Europe MBA + MBB exp for consulting exits

Is an MBA (top 3 MBA in Europe) helpful to secure good consulting exits in Asia (specifically South East Asia)

For context, I’m in MBB right now, but considering if an MBA is worth the salary lost? Im not planning to stay in consulting for long (inclined towards strategy roles rather than say PE roles)
