Roles that combine Gov/Politics & Finance

Hi Everyone,

I am currently an undergrad student, and I am trying to understand where exactly in the finance industry I would like to end up. I have a large interest in politics, government relations, and international affairs—In addition to my interests in finance

I am hoping to get some advice on areas that might be worth exploring, whether that is a specific industry group in IB, or entirely different careers I have not considered.

Thank you for your help.
