Subject says it all. I'm in a commercial acquisitions role and have a strong interest in quantitative methods. Is this a valid combination? An MBA is beyond me at the moment, and if I think about where the future of our industry could be I feel like this combination might be a viable option.

Hi guys, to those of you who have taken courses in quantitative finance, I have heard they are considered heavy math.
