Engineering Major Needs Advice - Currently studying electrical engineering

I am currently an engineering major (sophomore) at Rutgers-New Brunswick. I am currently studying Electrical Engineering, but I may switch to Mechanical Engineering. However, I am interested in becoming an investment banking analyst or working in a hedge fund or working in private equity. I hear that Wall Street likes engineers because of their technical skills. I was wondering, which engineering looks better to Wall Street? Electrical or Mechanical? Also, I am planning on double majoring in either Math Statistics or Economics. I was wondering which of the 3 is best for Wall Street? Math? Statistics? Economics? Thanks.
