Low GPA from previous degree

I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree a couple years ago. I wasn't interested in pursuing any job in that field and I have since returned to school to do a finance degree. My GPA in my BSci was about 2.8. Since returning and pursing my finance degree I have a GPA in the mid 3.7 range from classes taken in the last year and a half. I'm concerned about how much my poor GPA (and as such cumulative GPA) is going to impact my chances of getting IB internships or full time positions in the future? Should I even put my cumulative GPA from over 10 years of university and 2 degrees on a resume? Or is my finance GPA adequate?
