Targets change completely at the masters levels. Wouldn't even call Bristol or KCL semi targets at the masters level.
Not that many MFin students are hired and 90% of them come from LBS, LSE, Oxford. Semi territory goes to places like Imperial, Warwick, Cambridge. Then there's everything else. Even at Warwick/Imperial you tend to see the only people who end up in IB after their masters are those who already had IB experience anyway.
Couldn't have said it better myself, please don't do any of those masters.
Agreed, there’s a very well defined masters target list, and in the U.K. it’s only really Oxford>LSE>Imperial that are worth going to for a masters if your hopes are to get into banking. Please see the list below:

Going to KCL/Bristol will at most land you at big 4 TS
Man dont waste your money on those programs, you will have really hard time recruiting.
Just curious, why is Imperial seen so badly (luckily not heading there). I swear their finance programme is more difficult content wise and to get into than the likes of Warwick, Bayes or KCL?
It's fairly new/they don't have the alumni network yet.
Main factor is recruiting stats are faily poor for the price / match the name of the undergrad college.
From all these replies looks like I should just do nothing and go kms because I am doomed for failure.
Did you do an internship in finance during undergrad?
