Want to get these shoes, but not sure if british tan is too light. There is also dark brown available on amazon, but that color looks dark red instead of brown, so i'm not sure

For a financial firm, British tan is too light. Cole Haan's quality has also gone down the drain a ton, Look at Meermin or Orbans; only problem is getting the right size for those, but if you know your size in Allen Edmonds than either reply to me with that or google around for advice on sizing for Meermin, there's a ton of stuff out there.
I honestly don't care too much about quality right now, I intend on getting a better pair if I get a nice paying banking job
I respect the price sensitivity, Orbans and Meermin are only slightly more expensive and honestly the difference in quality is miles away better than Cole Haan's. Meermin's are considered to be the same or better quality than Allen Edmonds but at half the price. Additionally, both Orbans and Meermin captoe oxfords look a lot more formal and professional than these CH's. I would strongly urge you to make the investment in these, for spending just 30-40% more you can get shoes that will last years longer and look better while doing so.
I actually own that exact pair in that color, and they are easily the most comfortable pair of shoes I own. Unfortunately I probably wouldn't wear them in IB, but go for the black version and you should have no problem. Shame of it is, Cole Haan's British Tan looks great...
