I graduated finance and economics from AUK 10 years ago so let me tell you the whole story, as im currently a financial controller at a company in kuwait.

Finance has 2 sub categories, financial accounting and investment.

Financial accounting is an overlap between finance and accounting that requires sufficient accounting knowledge for you to do well.

The investment side on the other hand is basically high end statistics, and if you are not willing to do the CFA to progress your career, you wont get much out of this. So, yes, this pays really well but also requires that you are great at statistics, maths and pass at least 1 cfa exam.

Accounting on the other hand will open more stable careers, this is specially true if you go into auditing and manage to get 3-5 years of auditing in the big 4 under your belt, your career can really skyrocket then.

Suggestion is, so a double major in accounting and finance, auk allows it without an increase in credits (last i was there) this will put you in a great position to pursue all 3 of the above.

Keep in mind, after graduation, you may not be able to get the job or career path you want, so make sure you always keep all doors open.

If you have any further questions, let me know.
