Where do you want to work after you graduate? Swiss schools are better at placing within D/A/CH, I know a few small time PE folks who went to Exeter.

Without German I honestly would focus on London. Not sure which other languages you speak (assuming native in Italian and/or French), but the other markets would then also be an option.
Queen Mary and Exeter are good enough for back office or big 4 only really. would not spend 30k / pa there when you have an option of getting same job from a degree worth 1.2k / pa. just work in CH?

Agree with the poster above, Exeter and QMUL will get you into a bank (MO / BO) or into a Big 4.
Tbh I would go with HEC Lausanne in any case. Did you try St Gallen?

Is that through CEMS or is it a direct partnership?
Maybe work another year and then apply to LBS / Imperial / LSE.

HEC Lausanne, or apply again.
QMUL is barely a real university, it's absolutely not worth the money. Even if it were free, I would suggest not attending.
Exeter isn't going to help you much at the graduate level for IB.
If you want LDN IB post-grad school, I suggest pushing for the higher ranked schools. I would even suggest several EU schools over the UK ones you listed.
Else, HEC Lausanne and stay in Switzerland.
Best of luck!
