The office is run by Chris Lobo, managing director, and offers a full-suite of primary and secondary equity products such as exchange traded funds, convertibles and equity structured products for international institutional investors.
Formerly branded as AG Edwards, the Geneva office was converted to Wachovia Securities as part of the firm’s recently completed acquisition. Wachovia’s European sales force now consists of 12 professionals serving clients in the UK, continental Europe and Scandinavia through its existing London and new Geneva offices.
Geoffrey Snyder, managing director and head of institutional sales operations at Wachovia Securities, said: We are excited to add the Geneva office and sales team to our expanding international footprint. We see tremendous potential for the distribution of our institutional products in Europe and look forward to building on the momentum that our former AG Edwards colleagues have established.
