Gonzalo Amian, a v.p. in derivatives marketing at Goldman Sachs in London, has left the firm. Amian sold credit, equity and interest-rate structures to clients in Iberia and reported to Jose-Antonio Carreterro, head of Iberian sales, who was unavailable for comment. Rebecca Nelson, spokeswoman in London, confirmed the departure, declining comment on a replacement.
Market officials have connected the salesman with a similar role at The Royal Bank of Scotland. This could not be confirmed: Amian is on gardening leave and could not be reached. Murray Parker, spokesman at RBS in London, did not comment by press time.
