LBS Masters in Financial Analysis vs HEC MSc in Finance
Hi everyone!
I am currently experiencing a dilemma with regards to my postgraduate studies.
I just received notice that I was admitted to both the recent Masters in Financial Analysis of LBS and the MSc in International Finance of HEC Paris.
I would like to pursue a career in PE (notably in VC and/or Growth Capital, either in Europe or Asia (HK and Singapore) or the US. I feel like the LBS's programme weakness notably lies in the fact that it is a recent programme while HEC's is more established. However I have a feeling that LBS's brand is stronger across the globe.
Any insights might be of interest !
Thank you in advance!
Mind sharing your profile?
Sure ! French, freshly graduated last year from the BSc in International Economics, Management and Finance at Bocconi University (105/110).
GMAT: 700
Internships with ENGIE in market analysis / trading. With Catella Valuation (Real Estate Valuation) and currently at KPMG in the Integration and Separation team of Transaction Services.
Interested in this topic as well - anyone have any insights?
I thought the choice was obvious LBS
My money is still on LBS due to global branding, but yes I know that there are some really smart, particularly quantitatively inclined, people at HEC.

Thank you for your insights!
This is helpful, I am leaning towards LBS because I feel like the curriculum has an edge in terms of practical and experiential learning, and that the brand is well known globally.
Further, I feel like this will open me to a wider network of people and backgrounds.
And last but not least, living in the outskirts of Paris compared to central London is a little less enticing.
Bro you decided? news?

LBS
From my expereince, I feel if you are French, HEC would have been a better choice because you'd have easily got into VC/PE in France.
But, all the bset to you.
