Lehman Brothers has hired Antoine Godin, a trader at Solent Capital Partners in London, as a director in proprietary trading. Further details of the role could not be determined and Rachid Bouzouba, head of equity derivatives trading for Europe, declined all comment on the hire. Godin could not be reached by press time.
Solent officials referred calls to external communications firm Broadgate, where Mark Knight said Chris Rayner-Cook, a trader for Solent's Credit Opportunities Fund, will replace Godin on the Relative Value Credit Fund in addition to his current role.
