Thank you for taking the time to answer my question :). I am a BS Statistics Major wanting to work in Investment Banking. What minor would be recommended? (Finance, Economics, etc.)

minors don't really add much value and its hard to tell which one will result in the most learning without knowing what school you're at.
To answer your question, I would go with Finance or Accounting for your minor. You want to demonstrate an interest in finance other than just an internship you can obtain. My best recommendation is to double major in stats and finance/accounting.
