Top US$BN+ hedge fund group is expanding in order to take full advantage of a rising interest rate environment across G-6 markets. Strong buyside book runners orsenior investment bank prop desk heads match the relevant kind of backgrounds that our client looks to find. Strong BOJ/ FED/ ECB/ BOE style interest rate views with a market network to maximize P/L is required. This Q1 start in 2007 may be hired earlier if either bonus or circumstance can be justified. English is the main language need. Japanese, Chinese or any other kind of language or cultural edge would be welcomed. Previously book P/L prop numbers of US$12-25MM or more would be within the expectation size of past performance. Deep self-driven risk management skills are critical.
