How about a master's degree in financial economics from Oxford University?
Oxford master of economics for two years, requiring GRE scores.

First of all, the master's degree in economics in Cambridge is one year, and the master's degree in economics in Oxford is two years, so this time is quite different, which is also convenient for everyone to compare and choose. If there are students who are considering the length of school time, you need to pay attention.

Second, there are at least three different master's programs in the Economics Department of Cambridge University. The first one is called MPhilinfinanceeconomics, the second one is called MPhilineconomics, and the third one is called MPhilineconomicsresearch. First of all, they have different emphases. MPhilinfinanceeconomics will talk more about financial knowledge, the economics society will be more pure, the economics society will be more selective, the economics research will be more rigorous, and there will be fewer elective courses, but the things will be more in-depth.

Third, in terms of admission criteria, Cambridge does not need to take GRE, but Oxford's master of economics requires GRE scores, so this is also worthy of attention.

To sum up, the Oxford program may be more suitable for students who plan to study PhD. First of all, two years later, there will be more time for economic research. In addition, many students studying here are students who want to study for a doctorate, and the academic atmosphere will be relatively strong. In Cambridge, one year is relatively short, you can get a degree quickly, and the course selection is relatively wide. Most students of Cambridge Master of Economics want to find a job after graduation, so the atmosphere of finding a job is very strong.
