Nomura Holdings Inc. hired Jezri Mohideen, a former senior trader that Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc fired amid its probe into Libor misconduct, according to a person familiar with the hire. He will be based in Dubai.
Mohideen started this week as global chief digital officer for the Japanese bank’s global markets and investment banking operations, according to the person, who requested anonymity as the hire hasn’t been made public. He will report to Steve Ashley, Nomura’s head of wholesale and global markets, and a one-time senior trader at RBS who overlapped with Mohideen at that bank.
