Bristol, Soton or UCL for finance and economics

Hi everyone.

I applied to several UK universities for postgraduate finance degrees but I have yet to decide where I should go to. My choices are:

University of Bristol: MSC Economics, Finance and Management
It's a good programme and it offers a great variety of courses to choose from. However, it;s the most expensive of the lot.

University of Southampton: MSc International Banking and Financial Studies
A bit more focused than Bristol and Soton is campus based. Also, their accommodation is better and the programme is 2000 pound cheaper.

University College London: MA Comparative Business Economics (with reference to Eastern Europe), International MA Economics, State and Society (with reference to Eastern Europe).

UCL is by far the most prestigious, but the programmes are MAs. Also, I suspect a lot of essay writing about eastern europe and courses taught by polish professors instead of useful courses that would later help me in my career.

Could you please advise me which is the best degree? I am planning to pursue a finance-related career after graduation and so my decision should be a knowledgeable one.


Thanks!
Ucl

EDIT: on second thoughts bristol since it seems a more repsected degree imo
