What are my exit opportunities like as a post Europe - MBA graduate (LBS/INSEADD). Prior experience as a trader assistant @ BB

Looking for some realistic opinions on what opportunities would await me If I were to complete an MBA at a top European business school.

I currently work at a Tier 1 BB bank in Australia as AVP, and have 5 years experience managing a team of FI + FX trader assistants (operations division). 

I'm keen to stay in finance, either returning to capital markets in a front office capacity or going into asset management, VC or PE.

Alternatively I would also consider Management Consulting.

How likely would it be for me to make such a pivot post MBA?
