Hey everybody, I want to get an MBA in finance but I don't want to study in the US or London. Other than that, what should I be looking at?

I assume schools in Hong Kong (CUHK, HKU) and also Singpore (INSEAD + NUS).

Are there other locations as well?

I plan to work internationally for at least a few years, hopefully in the location that I study. So visa rules should be fairly relaxed.

My mother tongue is English but I also speak Spanish and Portuguese fluently plus German at the B1 level.

Rotman is a very strong option. The schools with the best MiF degrees are also strong contenders: http://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/masters-in-finance-pre-experience-2015 HEC and ESADE will be strong.

PS Perhaps SDA Bocconi and Oxford too?

Have you seen this list?

Rotman is there, as are more Canadian schools, Western Ontario and Queen's. Although I don't necessarily agree that the latter two are as strong as Rotman.

ESADE is a great choice, given your Spanish fluency. Also look into Frankfurt School of Finance and Management if you're interested in German schools and would be committed to improving your German skills.

Rotman, huh. I never considered going to Toronto but that makes sense. Also like the idea of HEC and potentially Frankfurt School of Finance and Management. Cheers.

Oh, and there's also the EGADE-Belk Global MBA. An oddball suggestion... but good value
