UCL MSc management - finance pathway

I received an offer for the UCL MSc of ma agent (finance pathway). My objective is getting into IB.

I have a BSc in economics and finance (100/110) and a MSc in innovation and technology management (110/110) from Università Cattolica in Italy.

During the past year I got a PE internship for a fund in the US. I am 23 and the UCL program would be 1 year. At the moment I was unable to secure any offers in IB for summer 2021.

Does the UCL MSc in management (finance pathway) make sense for a career in IB? Is UCL a target school in the Uk? Being 24 when I finish my Masters, how competitive would my CV be? Any other routes you would suggest?
