URGENT, PLEASE HELP: LBS/INSEAD MBA vs HEC Paris MIF

I have the option to take the HEC Paris MIF now, but am considering working a couple of years (first one year in regional ER, then regional IB), and then take an MBA at either LBS or INSEAD.

Long-term I want a PE gig in the Nordics. They really like MBB people there, or people coming from London IB. The MIF at HEC Paris is nice for landing an IB gig in London, but I do not want that due to the extreme hours. Does the LBS and INSEAD MBAs carry a significantly stronger name that would make the higher cost worth it for me? HEC Paris is seemingly a lot less known here than in the rest of Europe.
