Masters degree required for structuring?

I've just graduated with a maths degree and I'm interested in working in structuring. Would an MSc in mathematical finance help me to achieve this? What other masters degrees would be useful for this division?

 

Being good with numbers certainly helps, but you don’t need a masters degree. I’m currently interning in structuring at a BB with the possibility of converting to full time and only have an undergraduate degree in economics / finance with moderately quantitative modules.

 

Hi mate - may I ask you how do you think of the role as a structurer? I am going to be a sa at a bank and was allocated to structuring for 1st rotation. Was wondering its exit opportunities etc. 

All insights appreciated!
