New US rates and forex derivatives heads at SG

Peter Toolan and Anna Faustini have joined Société Générale's US interest rates and foreign exchange derivatives team for corporates.

Faustini has been appointed head of forex corporate sales for the US and Canada. She will be responsible for developing client relationships and marketing the firm's forex products. Before joining the French bank, she worked at Bank of America as head of the bank's north-east corporate forex sales desk.

Toolan is responsible for the firm's marketing effort to US and Canadian corporates. Previously, he worked in a similar role at Barclays Capital, which he joined in 2004, where he covered interest rate risk management for US corporate clients. He has also worked in the corporate derivatives group at Merrill Lynch.

The new recruits will be based in New York and will report locally to Arnaud Achour, head of capital markets and syndication for the Americas, as well as to Pascale Moreau and Albert Loo, the firm's global co-heads of interest rates and forex derivatives, based in Paris.
