UK - Final details of curbs on overseas students to be announced

It will likely be Non-EEA members - who don't have other routes open to them - and Asian students who will suffer the most from this unfortunately.

Since this is whom the new legislation is directed against, we should scarcely be surprised. I don't know how large the quant market is in the UK but I have a hard time believing qualified local candidates are hard to come by.
 
The parents want to get the Oxbridge brand for their children?
I presume so, I also wonder if it makes it easier to get a good job in Asia for a British company e.g. HSBC?
 
Why would the students from Asia want to go to UK to study now? The parents want to get the Oxbridge brand for their children?

Oxbridge, Imperial, LSE -- the brand marks you for life and in the Third World means you belong to the ruling or technocratic elite.
