Remember Credit Suisse’s enormous hiring intentions for the front office? In March it said it wanted to make 30 new FX sales hires, to hire 20 new people in leveraged finance, 40 people for rates, and 40 people for emerging markets.

Two months’ later, it seems most of those roles have been filled. At a presentation last week, the bank said already hired the 20 new credit people it wanted, that the rates build-out of 40 people was 70% completed, and that it was 39% of the way through making its 30 new FX hires, and 55% through hiring 40 new people for emerging markets.

There was no mention of leveraged finance.

Credit Suisse also outlined its strategic priorities in equities and IBD, where hiring still seems particularly likely in:

- Listed derivatives, Delta One, fund administration and prime brokerage

- Technology (as we reported last week, Credit Suisse wants 200 technology staff in London.)

- APAC equity derivatives

- IBD in Latin America, Canada, France, Germany, Nordics

- M&A in Asia
