Deutsche Bank's Vinod Aachi, co-head of equity structuring in the global markets group in Singapore, has now also taken up the reins for the firm's nascent retail unit in Asia. The move follows the recent retirement of Ken Sue, head of the investment products group in Hong Kong, who helped establish the unit last year (DW, 5/19).
The cross-asset class group concentrates on retail products primarily for the big four derivative markets in Asia ex-Japan: Singapore, Taiwan, Korea and Hong Kong, said Aachi. While the bulk of the investment products group is based in Hong Kong, Aachi noted it still has yet to be decided if he will relocate to the city.
Prior to co-running the equity structuring side beginning this year, he overlooked credit products in the relative-value group in Singapore.
