It seems that activity is picking up in the FX recruitment industry. Among those reportedly on the move this week are Ray Love and Kevin Eldridge from Deutsche Bank in London. I first met Ray in the early 1980s when I took his line as a broker when he was at the Bank of England. Expect him to resurface shortly. Elsewhere, Tom Meacham has left UBS Singapore, where he was an options trader.
It looks as if there is a bit of a bid in the market for hedge fund salespeople. Those reportedly on the move include Dudley Hancox from Deutsche New York and Brad Bechtel from Goldman Sachs NY. Meanwhile, Calyon London has supposedly hired Aaron Armstrong, ex-Brevan Howard and Goldman Sachs, and Amar Singh, ex Cymbria.
