From risk management to financial markets

I am 22y and currently attending my second year of Master's degree in risk management, very much focused on financial and law risks. As part of my studies I am working in corporate finance and strategy 3 weeks per month in a top firm. (financial planning and analysis). I also previously worked as an intern abroad in Governments (economics and finance, but also in political spheres in Prime Minister office of a very small country).Following my Master degree I would like to dive more in the financial markets side of finance through an Msc. I became increasingly interested in this topic throughout the time. Is a profile like mine from risk management would make any sense if I should apply to a 1y Msc in Finance including a financial markets track?
