Deutsche Bank has appointed David Martins da Silva as European Head of Rates Sales. He joins the bank from BNP Paribas where he was head of UK and Dutch Rates Sales.
Martins da Silva will be based in London and will start in July. He will report to Haroon Sana, Global Head of Rates Sales and Dario Schiraldi, European Head of Institutional Sales.
“We have a world leading Rates business and David’s appointment adds to our already strong European team, says Haroon Sana. He has excellent client relationships and extensive European experience which will fit well with the existing client business.”
Deutsche Bank’s Global Rates business is a market leader in fixed income and OTC derivative products and services and continues to strengthen the team with recent hires including Dominic Konstam as Global Head of Rates Research and Michael Durr as Global Head of Central Bank Sales within Rates. The bank recently won IFR’s Derivatives House and Interest Rate Derivatives House of the Year 2009 awards and was also named World’s Best Prime Broker by hedge funds in the July 2009 Prime Brokerage Survey by Global Custodian, ranking best in class in 127 of the 150 categories.
