Is a Joint JD/MBA necessary for In House Counsel

I was wondering if the Joint JD/MBA is necessary if one wants to pursue the in-house counsel or corporate attorney (transactional/mergers and acquisitions) route. I will be getting my bachelors in business (Economics and Finance) so is it even worth it picking up the MBA along with the JD? I searched the forums w/ the search function and couldn't fine a clear consensus on whether it's necessary and if it's worth it overall. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Not necessary at all.

Neither necessary nor sufficient.

Would an MBA be helpful though?
