Switching from tech consulting to banking

I am currently 2 years out of college working for a big 4 firm in tech advisory. My degree was in computer science but I switched majors about halfway through from economics. I want to see what opportunities might be available in banking since I have always had a deep interest in economics but talked myself into computer science during college because I thought the pay would be better right out of college. Oops. Open to any and all ideas and would love to hear if anyone has had a similar experience.
