Morgan Stanley has hired Irene Rodriguez, a director of fixed-income derivatives sales to Latin American corporates at BNP Paribas in New York, as an executive director in a similar role. Rodriguez, who started a few weeks ago, confirmed the move and said she is looking forward to working at Morgan Stanley, where she will sell a range of fixed-income products such as interest-rate, credit and foreign exchange derivatives to Latin American end users for liability management purposes. She declined further comment.
At Morgan Stanley, Rodriguez reports to Elinor Hoover, managing director for fixed-income derivatives in New York, who did not return calls.
At BNP, Rodriguez reported to Kip Testwuide, managing director and head of debt capital markets in New York. His office referred calls to Nicky Brown-Gilstrap, spokeswoman in New York, who said BNP is looking to replace Rodriguez.
