Baader-Helvea announces key US hires and the opening of a Boston Office

Baader-Helvea has announced that Julie Doherty will join its North American sales team, effective February 1st.
This announcement comes in addition to the firm's hiring of Andrea Kiefer to the US team in December.
In tandem with these hires, the company will open a new Boston office to add to its existing presence in New York and Montreal.

'We are very excited about these additions to our team as we believe they further cement Baader-Helvea's commitment to its North American franchise' explained Morgan Deane, CEO at Baader-Helvea, adding that 'their stellar reputation in the market will enhance the Baader-Helvea Group's standing with its North American clients.'
Ms. Kiefer, who previously worked as senior sales at Mainfirst Bank in the US, is based in New York, while Ms. Doherty will be based at Baader-Helvea's new office location in Boston, having previously been a key figure in Berenberg Bank's North American franchise.

Oliver Riedel, Member of the Management Board of Baader Bank AG, noted that 'they give Baader- Helvea the opportunity to build on its momentum to be the No.1 broker in North America for the Germany, Austria & Switzerland region' while stressing that the firm 'continues to see North America as a key region - something which can be seen by our willingness to open a new office in Boston in an effort to be closer to our clients'.

Through its US SEC registered broker dealer and CFTC registered introducing broker, Baader-Helvea offers access to its full range of products and services which includes fundamental research on the Germany, Austria & Switzerland region, capital markets activities, global multi asset class execution and ETF market making.
