ESADE vs EDHEC vs RSM

Dear Colleagues,

I am a Russian graduating student aimed to pursue MSc abroad at some of these programmes: ESADE Finance, EDHEC Financial Markets, RSM Finance and Investments. I would like to find a work abroad after the graduation, preferably in Asset Management.

Could you please share you experience and help me which school to choose?

I will really appreciate your answers.

My 2 cents.

I have an offer from MFin at Esade and I had a really great impression about the school when I visited it. Moreover, it seems like they place well in the City (the program reputation is growing). Still, I believe it's really IBD oriented, so I'm unsure about how you would fit if you're interested in Asset Management. Aliasgoldman will probably answer better as he's currently a student there.

Edhec has a great name for finance, especially risk management from what I've heard, but the majority of graduates seem to end up working in Paris, keep that in mind if it is "London or bust".

RSM has a strong name for Management, not heard much for finance though...
