Under the stewardship of Joseph Ricciardi, Head of U.S. Sales & Trading, the following industry experts will be coming aboard our institutional sales team:

We have also broadened our equity finance team with the addition of two accomplished professionals, who will report to Pat Travers, Head of Distribution, and myself. Bjorn and Michael each have over 20 years of experience in the prime brokerage space, and I’m thrilled to have them join the team.
