Wells Fargo Adds Three More to Prime Brokerage Unit

Wells Fargo Securities has added three more directors to its prime services division.

Kira Bazile has joined the Prime Services Sales Group, focusing on supporting equity long-short mangers. She was previously president of North Street Global, providing services in alternative asset fund administration, investment banking and global markets.

Also joining the bank is Kelly Marsch and Paul Schultz for its Prime Services Capital Introduction Group. Marsch will focus on its futures commission merchant (FCM) clients, while Schultz will focus on their institutional East Coast allocators.

Marsch joins from Trading Technologies after serving nine years with the tech vendor, where she assisted in the creation and execution of the firm’s global capital introduction initiative. Schultz was previously a director in the Global Capital Introduction unit at Citigroup, responsible for its largest hedge fund clients for on-going capital introduction coverage.

The appointments come two months after the bank hired Wendy Beer and George Jamogchian as directors for their prime services business.
