Investec has announced it will launch an equity derivatives platform in July, which will be run by new recruit David Jones-Prichard.
Jones-Prichard joined the specialist bank in March to build the equity derivatives capability, which will complete Investec’s financial markets platform spanning debt, equity, commodities, currency and now equity derivatives.
He joined from J.P. Morgan where he spent the last six years establishing the structured products trading desk in Australia.
Investec has also added two new natural resource experts to its banking team, Hugh Thomas as managing director and head of the natural resources team, and Stefan Edelman.
