Masters in Finance without work experience

Hi, I am currently in the 1st year of my 3yr Bachelor in Economics in India and I am planning to do a master's in finance from the UK or France. I feel that there are not many opportunities for me if I stay in India after UG especially since not a lot of big companies recruit from my college. (I'm looking to work in the Investment Management Industry). Any suggestions on which schools I should target or if should gain experience in India first would be appreciated.Expected GPA: 7.5+Also preparing for CFA L1
