Guys, my aim is IB/PE/MC and I am in my first year of MSc in Finance from a semi target in Europe (prior experience in two f500 companies department, big4 audit ).

I received an offer from a private debt fund (AUM 90B) of a large insurance company abroad, which does only fund of funds (I suppose less modelling and deal experience). 

Given my long-term goal of IB in London, what do you think of this opportunity compared to M&A BIG 4 or strategy consulting in tier 2 in my home country?

Thanks in advance!
