IB, Sovereign Advisory or...both?

Hey guys!

I'm a third-year student at a top French business school looking to get into Finance. I have a very international profile (lived abroad all my life, fluent in 3 languages, etc), and I have an interest in economics and politics as well.

After doing some research, I have come to the conclusion that Sovereign Advisory (or any Public Finance/DCM related fields in IB) would be a great fit for someone who isn't 100% quant-oriented. Working in an international organization is also something I have taking into account.

My first questions are: is Sovereign Advisory a sustainable career choice? Would I be well compensated? What are its common exit options?

Knowing that I have almost no useful professional experience, my second question would be: is IB a mandatory step before getting into SA? For some reason it doesn't feel nearly as interesting as SA and rather a typical finance bro career choice.

I'm looking fwd to exchange on this matter, publicly or on DMs.

Thanks!
