Banking Treasury vs Risk management vs Quantitative analyst

Got full time offers from all three roles, all with in BB.

  1. Risk management, very analytical, lots of excel etc
  2. Treasury banking (liquidity risk, interest risk), excel + some programming
  3. Quantitative risk analyst, quantitative role, requires math and programing

Which one has the best exit opportunity? What would you guys choice and why? This will be my first job and I am thrilled to have these offers but don't know which one I should take.

I majored in finance and math.

They are all in NYC,BB, no location difference, and I don't care about salary that much at this point, since the base are almost the same between 75k and 82k. I care more about the experience and the potential learning and exit opportunities.

I am debating between the treasury position and the quantitative risk position, which are quiet different. Treasury is more analytical( balance sheet, ALM etc) but closer to the market than the quant position I assume. But again, the quantitative role does have a much better pay after a few years...

Thanks!!
