Credit Suisse has appointed Carl Bautista, Mervyn Chow and George Pavey as co-heads of its Global Markets Solutions Group (GMSG) for Asia Pacific and Zeth Hung as vice chairman of the Investment Banking Department and GMSG for Greater China.
The appointments, announced by Vikram Malhotra and Helman Sitohang, co-heads of Credit Suisse’s Investment Banking Department for Asia Pacific, strengthen the management of the Bank’s capital markets and structured products business in a key growth region, and demonstrate continued investment in covering key clients in China.
Bautista, Chow and Pavey will be responsible for leading the growth of Credit Suisse’s equity capital markets, debt capital markets and structured products businesses throughout Asia Pacific. Chow and Pavey will have primary responsibility for Equity and Debt Capital Markets origination and execution, while Bautista will lead Credit Suisse’s structured products business, which encompasses structured financing solutions for corporate clients. Chow and Pavey are based in Hong Kong, while Bautista is based in Singapore.
Hung will help lead coverage of key clients in Greater China, delivering Credit Suisse’s full range of Investment Banking products and advisory services. He will work closely with Janice Hu, chairman and head of Credit Suisse’s Investment Banking Department for China. Mr. Hung will continue to be based in Hong Kong.
“These new appointments have tremendous track records in helping a broad range of clients raise capital across diverse markets and products,” commented Malhotra. “Their experience and highly complementary skill sets will enhance Credit Suisse’s value proposition to Investment Banking clients in Asia Pacific.”
“Strengthening our GMSG and China coverage management teams makes perfect strategic sense at a time when Asian capital markets and Credit Suisse’s own business are growing rapidly,” added Sitohang. “It’s also a clear sign of the depth of senior talent at Credit Suisse that we are able to appoint leaders to these positions from within the Bank.”
