Basically I recieved my A2 results and achieved two A* in economics and history and an A in maths. I have been accepted into Bristol university for economics but I'm also considering taking a gap yr and reapplying to lse and wawrick for economics. The careers I'm interested in are investment banking/Asset management/actuarial. So in short, is it worth me reapply to those unis to give me a better chance of getting into one of those careers, or should I just stick with Bristol? Thanks.

No point, Bristol is great and there will be people with your grades there
I would go for it, take a gap year, build your reading list and personal statement, get some work experience and take a break from all that hard studying!! A*A*A is great! Do make sure you have a backup still tho because you could be let down in interviews or by your personal statement otherwise aim for the big ones
Alright thanks for the reply. Also would you say bristol is good at getting graduates into IB positions?
As I said, it's great - very strong semi-target. People I know from there are going to GS, MS, CS.. In front office roles. Decent amount of first years get SWs..
It's a good uni and there is literally 0 point in taking a gap year.

May as well take a chance if it means you could get into an extremely good uni
bristol is good, had quite a few interns this year interning in ibd from bristol. one of the most impressive girls (who got like 9 sw offers) was from bristol and now she's at gs doing ibd
I'm telling him to resit Maths, since Economics at Cambridge/LSE/Warwick require an A* not an A.
Please reread OP's post.
You clearly didn't get my point.
By the way, if I remember correctly you're going to LSE right? Answering honestly, do you think that LSE in itself will automatically place you above all others?
