Because applicants don't research what they're getting into?

Well it's because it's the best degree for getting into finance. Sure, every degree can get you into finance, but STEM subjects are too difficult, humanities subjects are too boring and accounting isn't prestigious enough so economics fits the bill perfectly- not too difficult, very interesting and is seen as being quite prestigious.
