Dual degree usyd and SciencesPo or LSE for IB

Hi! Looking for some advice on university choices, for context, I'm an 18yo Australian student studying in Singapore. I want to break into IB in the US but I'm not sure of how I can do so. I'm currently considering between the econs and politics dual degree in usyd and sciencespo, and the BSc in Economics in LSE. Logically, the ideal choice would be LSE, but it's around 300k SGD for 3 years, whereas the usyd and sciencespo dual degree would be 200k SGD for 4 years max. I'm also an Australian citizen so finding jobs after undergrad in Australia IB would be easier than in UK or US, but I wouldn't want to stay there because the market is too small and has limited room for career development. Internal transfers from aus to america IB are possible but I'm not sure how often they occur. Any advice would be appreciated.
