Finance and math is an excellent combination: Most math majors are very theoretical and can’t apply math to anything useful; many finance majors are weak in math and find their career prospects limiting. A math/finance person would be in demand by Goldman Sachs and similar investment houses, by insurance companies for actuarial work, by consulting firms like McKinsey & Company, etc.

I’m not sure what the Spanish adds to this, unless your goal is to work in a Spanish-speaking area.

An excellent combination. I have heard graduates with a degree in financial maths are being snapped up as soon as they are qualified – especially if they have a Masters in it.

PS – I have retired from work – I am just doing it out if interest -but other have told me it has great career prospects.

Thanks
