Credit Suisse First Boston has hired Gianluca Lesiana, a structured equity products salesman covering the Italian market at Bear Stearns in London, as a director in a similar role. Lesiana will report to Vito Elia, director in equity derivatives. Rebecca O'Neill, a spokeswoman for the company, confirmed the move. Lesiana could not be reached for comment.
Lesiana replaces Massimo Marzeglia, who joinedBNP Paribas in September as an equity and interest rate derivatives marketer for Italy in London. He reports to Massimiliano Viglienghi, head of marketing for Italy in London, according to Edwina Frawley, a spokeswoman.
Vincent Van Pelt, senior managing director in equity and credit derivatives at Bear Stearns in London, declined comment on Lesiana's replacement.
