MSc in Statistics or Finance

As the title suggests I’m considering doing a masters in either subject. For context, I’ve studied a non-STEM or finance degree in undergrad but have done 2 S&T internships and one M&A internship.

To boost the quantitative weighting in my CV and increase my chances to join a prop trading firm or hedge fund, which do you recommend I study?

Either would be in the likes of UCL, LSE, KCL, etc.
