JPMorgan has hired David Haldane in the equity derivatives group at HSBC in London, as head of equity derivatives trading in Sydney. He now reports to David Ferrall, co-head of equity in Sydney. Ferrall said Haldane, who started last week, handles both listed and over-the-counter equity derivatives and is a replacement for Duncan Cameron, equity derivatives trader, who was recently reassigned to Tokyo in a similar role. Cameron declined comment.
Haldane did not return calls. Aruna Amrania, spokeswoman at HSBC in London, said Haldane left the bank in November. She declined further comment.
