Thank you all guys,

The handbook has your answers. Oh and it's not just about your piece of paper.

Unless you are acredited by a professional orginization like engineers australia or Chartered Accountants no one gives a shit

If I was doing an Economics degree, I would try and maintain distinction average and aim for employment at the RBA (Reserve Bank of Australia).

Other than that, here you go: http://www.handbook.unsw.edu.au/undergraduate/programs/2011/3526.html

Hmm I think I might be able to help here. I recently finished last year and I was originally doing a B Ec B A degree. I did majors in Eco and Fins but dropped the Arts degree. Complete the courses required for RG146 compliance. You should be able to find that on the handbook or the banking and finance school website.

from memory they should be:
FINS1612
FINS 2624
FINS2643
FINS3637

and heads up. I currently work as a Financial Planner. Actually I just got it.

I will have to slightly agree with studentleader on this point. You need a point of differentiation and to be RG146 trained and accredited from ASIC is an advantage over someone else who has the same majors. But again it just depends on what you want from your degree
