TD Securities has promoted Carl Hayes to head of European cash equities. He reports to Sharon Kim, executive managing director and region head of Europe for TD Securities and senior vice president of TD Bank Group.
In the London-based role, Hayes will support the firm as it continues to expand its presence in European equity markets – a particular focus following its merger with Cowen last year.
On the appointment, Kim stated: “Carl’s leadership will help us further strengthen our multi-asset capabilities and integrate our market insights and quality execution across asset classes. These strengths have earned us a strong reputation in the financial services industry, and Carl and his team’s expertise will be key in driving our growth in these areas.”
Hayes has more than 20 years of industry experience and has been head of European sales trading at Cowen Execution Services since 2019. Prior to this he spent 12 years with Deutsche Bank, most latterly as head of EMEA equity sales trading.
Hayes commented: “It is a privilege to lead the European Cash Equities team. With the current dynamics in the European markets, I look forward to leveraging our outstanding expertise in high touch, low touch, electronic and program trading, as well as research sales, to enhance our market position and provide exceptional value to our clients.”
