Reference letters for Msc Finance

Hi all, was just wondering what is considered common practice when applying to top Msc Finance in Europe (LBS/HEC/Bocconi) regarding LoRs. Are they a requirement,a plus or do they just disregard them? Could have the possibility to get a couple from internship bosses and uni professors so I wanted to know if I should ask them or not. Thanks a lot in advance!
