Senior correspondent, foreign exchange
Lee Oliver moved in to financial journalism after a 12-year stint in the foreign exchange market and a 3-year sabbatical as a ‘mature’ student at university. Over the years, he has worked for many prestigious institutions, most of which, such as Midland Bank, no longer technically exist. As a journalist, he has, at various times, covered the soft commodity, fixed income and equity markets before returning to his FX roots.
Prior to Lee's January 2010 departure, he also wrote for the weeklyFiX, another Euromoney publication.
***
Lee Oliver is joining Citibank on February 1 as its Head of FX & Local Markets Marketing and High Frequency Content. As a result, he will no longer lead Euromoney's foreign exchange coverage.
Lee has been a tremendous asset in helping Euromoney become the leading publication for FX news and comment. We thank him for his hard work and contribution, as well as his always sunny demeanour (?), and wish him well in his new role.
Lee’s departure gives Euromoney and the weeklyFix an opportunity to build on the those great achievements already made in our FX coverage.
Euromoney’s foreign exchange coverage, both in the weeklyFiX and in the magazine, will now be carried out by Trevor Carr and Alexandra Fletcher.
Trevor will be responsible for the weeklyFiX’s continuing market commentary, breaking news and opinion. He traded in the foreign exchange and money markets for 30 years. He worked for a variety of prestigious institutions including Midland Bank, Lloyds Bank, Credit Agricole and Bayern LB. Throughout his career he has been a regular contributor to currency option and strategy publications. He can be contacted by email at fx@euromoney.com and on +44 207 779 8416.
Alex will join as a reporter and will be responsible for enhancing and expanding Euromoney’s FX news coverage both online and in the magazine. She will begin work on February 8. Her contact details will be communicated then.
Any questions about Euromoney’s new-look FX coverage should be addressed to Clive Horwood, the editor, at chorwood@euromoney.com
