Offer dilemma

Having issues choosing between two S&T SA 2023 offers. One is DB NY fic, the other is a non-BB in hk (think hsbc/nomura type). As an Asian, the culture definitely fits better in hk, with more upward potential in terms of promotion. Plus hk has housing stipend and lower tax so the actual salary after tax and all the cost is double the amount of NYC if I make it to fulltime. But still I think a big name in the world's financial center can lead to more opportunities in the future, so I'm really struggling between the two. any ideas appreciated!
