Deutsche Bank has boosted its Southeast Asia sales effort with the hire of Sreenivasan Iyer, director in the strategic solutions group at Merrill Lynch in Singapore, for a new role. He joins as head of debt capital markets and the corporate coverage group for Southeast Asia.
The move follows the transfer of Saleh Romeih, managing director and head of debt capital markets and the corporate coverage group for Asia from London to Singapore at the start of the year. Iyer now reports to Romeih.
Iyer will focus on the growing markets of Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand and will be responsible for structured products across asset classes, noted Terence Ng, spokesman in the Lion City.
Mark Tsang, spokesman at Merrill in Hong Kong, did not respond to questions regarding a replacement for Iyer by press time.
