How to sell a marketing master's on a resume?

Hi everyone,

I will start a finance master's degree in september after 1 year as a master's student in marketing and one year of internships.

I am going to apply for the summer internships in London and wanted to know if anyone had an opinion on how to sell my marketing classes on my resume and in interview since I don't have any banking experience.

I thought the easiest way to sell it is that I wanted to understand how to serve a client and that I'm interested in business models, but I'm not sure whether that's the right approach or what to avoid saying in both the interview process and on my resume.

Thanks in advance for your monkeys' advice
