MFE vs. MBA in investment banking. (what do MFE guys usualy do)

[rts]

Hi, I'm interested in Investment Banking and i want to pursue my graduate degree. I've been thinking mainly about the MBA especially that it'll be a great boost for me in the industry.
so my question is what would be best for investment banking MBA or MFE?
and what do MFE exactly do in a bank? is it all about risk managment etc (treasury grunt work?)

Thanks.

First, do you have the appropriate background for a MFE?

I know that it specializes with building financial models\systems. that's all.

never expected it to have a lot of programming involved.

in all seriousness, why do you want to do banking?

If by investment banking you mean the corporate finance, m&a, ecm etc etc, MBA should be more appropriate than an MFE.
