It is the second notable departure from Nomura’s spot trading desk in recent months after James Pearson, who was global head of G10 spot trading, and European head of emerging markets FX, left at the end of May.
EuromoneyFXNews revealed at the time that he was likely to be joining Royal Bank of Scotland later this summer, according to sources it had spoken to at that time.
Separately, Phil Selby, an executive director in FX sales based in New York, has also left the Japanese bank. A Nomura spokesperson declined to comment on the departures.
