Unfortunately regardless of what you study, stock broking is still a largely nepotistic profession in Ireland. I would certainly recommend a business or accountancy qualification, but would also suggest that you look to the UK or further a field when looking for employment thereafter. Keep an eye on Fás too, as they’ve had courses with placements into the IFSC in the past.
