If you want to work as a banker, whether in market finance or as a client adviser, I recommend to study Finance. You would learn about financial products and accounting. Business studies would also give you skills to talk to clients and manage the commercial side of things

Christina’s Answer

It depends whether you want to be in commercial banking or investment banking. Commercial banking caters to your everyday customer operations, this could be Northern Trust, Chase, Wells Fargo, etc. The investment banking sector caters to companies that are trying to make larger investments. Both are considered banking but are very difference fields to step into.
