can i do a accounting and finance degree to go int private equity? or do i need econ?
Hi @io432 ,

Having looked at this link, it says "usually necessary to have at least an undergraduate degree in finance, business, economics, accounting or a related field" - How to get into private equity: 5 methods (with skills) | Indeed.com UK

So, you should be able to get into private equity with an accounting and finance degree but having made another quick search you could take a masters degree after should the degree not be enough. For example, you can study MSc Finance and Private Equity at Regent's University London - MSc Finance and Private Equity at Regent's University London (whatuni.com) but I'm sure you can find more courses.

Hope all that helps!
