Accounting & Finance PS ?

What do universities want us to include in the personal statement for that degree? It is very straightforward for the accounging part (balance sheets, income statements, all the ratios, cash flow, etc).
But the finance part confuses me a little. Can i talk about the stock market or something?

Also, any good way to combine PS for this course and for Economics. They are pretty related, but still need some different stuff in the essay, dont they?

Thanks

Yes, both fields are different and you would need to balance both delicately. Display your passion/interest in the field of choice and include examples of books you've read or ECs that are relevant to your course of study. Don't get too technical since you don't have very much space on the PS, but don't leave it too shallow either as it could seem as a half-baked job.
