Impact of an MBA in Corp Dev recruiting?

Currently an A2A associate at a boutique IB - have ~ 1.5 YoE, got the associate promo early as I came into the analyst chair post MBA (went to MBA directly out of undergrad for personal reasons, know that is not traditional).

Wondering how much weight if any the MBA might carry in recruiting for a Corp Dev role? MBA is from a great school but not exactly known for business, definitely not top tier.
