BNP Paribas has hired Mark Alexandridis, head of credit derivatives at Gen Re Securities, as head of its North American credit derivatives business in New York, where he is in charge of all sales, trading and structuring within the region, according to a BNP official. Alexandridis started at the French bank last month.
Prior to roughly three years at Gen Re, which shut down earlier this year, Alexandridis spent more than a decade at JPMorgan. At Paribas he reports to London-based Farid Amellal, global head of credit derivatives. Neither returned calls.
