St. Gallen vs HEC vs Bocconi

My profile: -Bocconi BSc Economics and Finance, sophomore (GPA 3.9) -Incoming intern in private banking (Intesa SanPaolo) -Target GMAT 700/720 -Exchange program at Ross Business School - University of Michigan

My goals: -Work for a bb in IB (London, Paris or Switzerland)

My question: I have to choose my MSc program between these options: -Bocconi: stay here in Milan and go on with my University, less international mobility, good brand, 2 years, total tuition 28000€ -HEC: 1 year program, the most expansive option (32000+live in paris), high average salary after 3 years -St. Gallen: 1.5 year program, good placement in Switzerland (?)(my german level is below 0), the most economic option (10000+living costs), not sure about the recognition in London/Paris

Which one would you suggest? Thank you!
