Capasso, who will be based in London, reports to Jean-Marie Tine, head of Delta-1 institutional sales for Europe. He begins his role on 14 October.

Optiver’s institutional sales team provides liquidity directly to counterparties across cash equities, derivatives and ETFs, with Optiver offering two-way pricing across major request-for-quote (RFQ) platforms and exchanges. In his new role, Capasso will focus on growing Optiver’s presence across these platforms, as well as business development and sales off-platform directly to institutional counterparties across Europe.

Capasso spent nearly a decade at Invesco, where he was most recently head of ETF capital markets for Southern Europe and LatAm.
