Hello Olivia,

It's a very good question,I appreciate it. I would like to tell you that both the field have good job opportunities and future growth.

An MBA In Banking will help you acquire knowledge in field of banking and you have added advantage when it comes to placement and interview for Banking. Many Top Collg​ like IIM-A, IIFT-K , IMT-G, FMS-D,SIBM-P, NMIMS -M,etc which offer MBA in Banking.

An MBA In Finance is generally the broader field. It gives you a complete knowlege of Accounting and Financial Management.
mFinance provide you a better job opportunities as you can apply to both banking and non banking firms. Most of MBA colleges have finance.


I would suggest that If you are only interested to go to banking sector in future than go for Mba in banking as Specialisation , else if you are ready to work with pvt and non banking firms go with Finance as your Specialisation.
All​ the best for your future prospects.

Hi!Let me give me a very honest opinion, both domains will have equal opportunities if you are equally good at them. So choose the one which interests you more as you will be eventually working in that domain.
