New guy from NZ
Hey guys i'm starting college next year in New Zealand, looking to get ultimately into the finance industry. Not sure where yet its a pretty massive industry. I'm thinking investment banking/venture capital, ultimate goal of a hedge fund. Like every other guy right hahaha.
So i'm going to do a BA in commerce, thinking double major in Finance and Actuarial Science. I thought Actuarial Science would be a different angle and valued as everything comes down to risk management, but from what i've been reading it sounds maybe math/stats is the way to go?
I have no love for math other than when its used in finance for forecasting/modeling/risk etc and don't want to be an actuary.
Out of accounting, economics, finance, actuarial science, math what is the best or most highly regarded combination?
Ultimately im planning on trying to finish up with a masters/PHD in America or Australia.
Would appreciate any advice/comments,
Cheers
