Lunchtime Links: Credit Suisse would like to hire hedge fund managers and former prop traders

Credit Suisse wants to hire people, says Bloomberg. It’s set up a new $500m systematic-trading group in its asset management business and would like to expand.

The group is currently based in the US and has a presence in Zurich, but may manifest itself elsewhere. It currently comprises 20 traders, analysts and ‘others’ and is looking to attract, ‘top tier talent.’ This talent will either be prop traders from rival banks or hedge fund managers, from hedge funds.
