Derivatives
Our Derivatives practice is active across asset classes globally, though historically has been most active within the equity and fund derivative sectors. We operate across product functions, with a particular focus on trading, sales and the corporate derivatives space, but also including research and structuring.
Whilst happy to engage in individual hires our Derivatives practice has a particular expertise in, and focus upon, consultative platform building projects consisting of multiple hiring of VP, Directors and MDs. In the last few years these have included: a 2 year re-build of a multi-asset class derivatives distribution business (25+ hires), building from scratch a flow equity derivative distribution business (40+ hires), and we are currently engaged overhauling an equity derivative distribution business whilst simultaneously building from scratch a Program Trading, Delta1, Prime Brokerage & Flow Equity Derivatives capability (35 + hires).
The partner responsible for this practice area has over 13 years’ experience within the Derivatives markets globally. Each member of the team has worked together for a minimum of 5 years, and the practice is responsible for more placements in the ‘Equity Derivatives’ field than any other competitor. This team’s stability, coupled with the volume of hires completed in recent years, gives us an unparalleled depth of market knowledge of Derivatives and network within the investment banking and hedge fund community.
