Hi! I come from the Philippines and I really wanted to work as a quant. I currently have an undergraduate degree in Applied Mathematics majoring in Mathematical Finance and I'm wondering if it would be necessary to take my Master's degree in US to be part of the big quant firms? What are my options?

I'm really passionate towards this career path, but I'm financially incapable to study in US.
