MBA St Gallen: Waht do you think to get into HF or PE in Switerzland for non German Spearkers?

Hi guy,

I am thinking to take a MBA in St. Gallen to switch from Investment Banking - Trading (Structured Products market making) to HF, PE or others because I do not see opportunities in Trading as many investment banks are closing desks and downsizing ops.

Do you think it is possible to break into HF,PE... even if I had no deal exposure in the past and my only experience is within public equity trading if I attend a MBA program in St.Gallen? (On the other hand I have the CFA®.

PS: I am not working in Switz. and I do not speak German
