Is a masters of economics a good combination for Finance?

Just finishing up my finance degree and I decided I want to further my education. I enjoyed most of my econ classes so I was wondering if pursuing a masters in economics would be valuable or useful in my career. Anyone with both finance and economics degrees would you say it was worth it?
