International student aspiring to get into Corporate Banking

Hello. So I come from a little country called Georgia. Have never done anything related to finance. Looking to pivot. I'm currently in the process of choosing between different careers in finance. Subsequent to my decision, I'll be analysing all the academic pathways that lead to my career of choice. I'll most likely land on corporate banking. Given that I'm not a local of any of the global financial hubs, what are some of the options country-wise for someone like me apart from America? Regardless of language or cost of tuition. I'm excluding US because it's quite difficult to stay there after graduation. Though at the same time, most of the fin jobs are there. It's quite a predicament.
