Non business masters -> Banking?

I'm an econs/finance double major who graduates this summer and an aspiring banker. As someone who has had a finance course every year and has newfound love for statistics (which ended up in me using up all my electives for stat courses) I'm curious so as to how choosing an Mstat offer over finance for masters would affect my approach or chances for getting a job in banking.

Note that I haven't applied to any mfin course, but I've got 2 Mfe and 1 Mstat offers both from target universities.

Any thoughts?
