Graduate Diploma in Law ? UK

I am going to graduate in Economics and would like to know, if legal knowledge is useful in IB. If so, do you think it's useful for me to pursue a GDL ? Will it be useful as an Ib? What's your opinion on this ?

Thank you.

No, it would add no further benefit to the banking aspect and just kill a year of your time. Lawyers do the paperwork.
