DrKW gains in FX sales

"These appointments reflect our ongoing commitment to strengthen the FX sales business with a strong focus on risk advisory, derivatives and our e-commerce offerings," said Christian Exshaw, head of FX sales at DrKW in London.

Tram Nguyen joins today (September 8) from Standard Chartered Bank in London, where she was a trader in emerging markets. In her new sales role, Nguyen will focus on selling local market products, ranging from vanilla products to derivatives. She reports to Exshaw.

She joins Monica Guida and Lyndsay Glynn, who both started at the bank in London on September 3. Guida is a senior FX sales dealer focusing on Italian clients. She leaves Deutsche Bank in London where she was also in FX sales. In her new role, Guida will report to Luca Allara, London-based head of FX sales for Italy. "She will capitalise on her experience in managing client relationships and financial products [in both derivatives and ecommerce] and continue DrKW’s expansion in this region," said Exshaw.

Glynn joined as an institutional FX sales dealer, reporting to Thomas Mummert, managing director of FX sales in London. She brings experience of the fund management industry as well as the sell side, having worked most recently in Fidelity Investments and prior to that in Westpac Banking Corp in London.

Meanwhile, Susan Scott joined the e-commerce team last Monday (September 1), reporting to Jonathan Wykes, head of e-FX sales in London. She is focusing on client servicing and deployment of the bank’s e-commerce range including Piranha FX, the Order book, Piranha options and its DebtGetaway application programme interface.
