Bayes (CASS) MSc Finance vs ESCP MSc International Business
Looking for perspective on the above, assuming I want to break into IB which of these programs places me better? Bayes is a worse brand name than ESCP but the degree is more relevant, ESCP is more like a management/business degree from the modules it seems geared towards consulting as opposed to IB. Does school name outweight degree content at the post grad level? And which of these programs places me well for IBD recruiting in London. Thanks!
Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's what you need to know:
School Prestige and Degree Relevance:
Bayes (CASS) MSc Finance:
ESCP MSc International Business:
Placement for IBD Recruiting in London:
In summary, while school prestige is important, the relevance of your degree to the field you want to enter is also crucial. For breaking into IB in London, the MSc Finance from Bayes (CASS) might be more beneficial due to its specialized focus, despite the stronger brand name of ESCP.

Honestly if you are looking to break into IB, Bayes provides the opportunity to be in London and network. Going to interviews will be easier, also, it is MSc Finance, and that course is pretty tough (gives lots of value to you). I say Bayes!!
But in full disclosure, recently graduated from bayes undergrad, going somewhere else in London for MSc because I want to increase my reach in the alumni network. as in 2 alumni networks are better than 1.
