Marex launches emerging markets credit desk in London

The new desk will combine agency execution with principal risk-taking across sovereign and corporate debt. It will be headed by Aaron Fernandes, head of European and Asian emerging markets, with Matthew Vogel, Head of EM strategy and Paul Timmons, senior trader.

Chief Strategist and CEO of Capital Markets, Paolo Tonucci, said, “Expanding in credit is central to building a full-service offering for our clients. EM credit rewards experience, speed and thoughtful use of balance sheet. Aaron’s team brings exactly that, plus an analyst product that adds tangible value across our network.”

Head of European and Asian Emerging Markets, Aaron Fernandes, said, “EM credit still benefits from a high-touch, content-led approach. Our hybrid model lets us act like a speedboat in a market of tankers pairing agency execution with targeted risk-taking and the ability to extend credit when it makes sense.”
