Deutsche Bank Brazil appoints head of global markets

Gleizer will head currency and interest rate derivatives, credit derivatives and structured products, as well as other capital market functions. He will be based in Sao Paulo and will report to Ariel Sigal, Deutsche's head of global markets for Latin America, and Roger Karam, chief executive of Deutsche Bank Brazil.

“Additions such as Daniel are a key part of Deutsche Bank's ongoing strategy to build the leading global markets business in Brazil and across Latin America,” said Sigal.

While at the Brazilian central bank, which he joined in 1999, Gleizer was responsible for managing the country’s international capital markets operations. He was a voting member of the Central Bank’s monetary policy committee. He led the reform of the foreign exchange market and co-ordinated relations with international financial institutions, Deutsche Bank said.
