Dual degree Finance-Actuarial Science

http://courses.mq.edu.au/2016/international/under…

From Macquarie University in Sydney. Since combining Finance with Actuarial Studies might allow me to analyze deeper on risks and enhance my mathematical skills, would this be a great idea for me?

From employers' side, I've been hearing that quantitative skills are highly regarded in IB, thus, wouldn't having skills in both maths and finance increase my chance of getting the job even with wider context?

Anyone?
