Local IBD / SG FDD ?

I'm currently in dilemma. I have 2 offers: local IBD & SG FDD

Should I go for local IBD (not bulge bracket banks)  or SG FDD (mid tier accounting firm) ? 

I want to work in SG IBD in long run but not sure whether the exposure in mid tier FDD can help to re-enter IBD in SG.

Any suggestion?
