  • Mark Yallop, Group COO of ICAP, has worked in the swaps and derivatives industry for nearly 30 years. He is referred to by his peers as an expert in business management with an ability to identify growth opportunities. His role in elevating ICAP into one of the leading interdealer brokers focused on electronic trading and post trade services and, prior to that, successfully setting up Deutsche Bank’s global trading and sales business, make Yallop a standout individual in the industry and a worthy recipient of the Outstanding Contribution Award. It is from his time at Deutsche Bank, particularly between 1995 and 2000, that Yallop identifies his greatest achievement, as he was part of the team that built Deutsche’s trading and sales capabilities. “The thing that I feel proudest about is taking something that was a concept, and which most observers thought was a pipedream—namely building a leading trading and sales franchise from scratch—and helping to make it a reality: a firm that didn’t even register on the global investment banking map in the early nineties to being a top three firm by market share, revenues and reputation just five years later,” he said.
