Knight Libertas Names Mullineaux Head of Emerging Markets Fixed Income Team

Citing growth in emerging markets debt, Knight adds to sales and trading staff.

Knight Libertas LLC, an institutional fixed income broker-dealer subsidiary of Knight Capital Group, appointed Daniel J. Mullineaux as managing director, global head of emerging markets fixed income. Mullineaux is an eight-year veteran of UBS where he was most recently managing director and head of emerging markets debt sales for the Americas.

At UBS he managed a desk covering debt, rates, derivatives and foreign exchange for clients in the US and Latin America before joining Knight in May of 2009. Mullineaux reports to Gary Katcher, EVP, head of global institutional fixed income at Knight Capital Group.

“After a contracting market in 2008, emerging markets debt is experiencing a burgeoning growth in new issuance and customer demand across the globe,” noted Katcher in the release. Knight Libertas is building up its emerging market capabilities as part of its job to identify alternative investment opportunities for its clients, said Katcher in the release.

Mullineaux previously spent more than six years at Goldman Sachs & Co. where he was an emerging markets fixed income portfolio manager. He also worked in emerging markets for Chase Manhattan Bank and in derivatives operations for Bankers Trust.

Knight also announced the hiring of four new employees, adding to the current emerging markets fixed-income team. Stephen G. Kenny and Max Nair, who both most recently worked for UBS, will be responsible for sales in Knight Libertas’s Greenwich, Conn. Office.

Paul Quinn joined Knight Libertas as a trader in emerging markets fixed income in March of 2009. Quinn spent 10 years in the global emerging markets group at UBS, where he traded emerging market sovereign bonds in Latin American and Asia and had recently added market making in Latin America and Asia currencies to his responsibilities.

In April, George Urumov joined Knight Libertas UK Limited as a trader in emerging markets fixed income sales. Urumov was previously an emerging markets trader for HSBC Bank in London where he made markets in EMEA sovereign, quasi-sovereign and corporate debt covering credit default swaps and cash products across Eastern Europe.
