Leading Geopolitical Risk Advisor Signum Global to Open Dubai Office
NEW YORK (PRWEB) July 05, 2023 -- Signum has hired veteran financial markets professional Frederik Michaelsen as CEO of Signum MENA (Middle East & North Africa) to lead its commercial expansion in the region. Based in Dubai, Frederik has worked with many of the world’s largest institutional investors and corporates over 20 years, most recently at Bank of America, HSBC and Saudi mining firm Ma’aden. Throughout his career, he has gained exposure to emerging and developed markets, equities, fixed income, FX and ESG investment strategies. He received his Master’s in Finance (MiF) from the London Business School.
On his decision to join Signum, Frederik said: “I am excited to join Signum Global as the CEO for MENA. The region has enormous potential due to its recent financial regulatory reforms, privatization push, and higher oil & gas prices. All this has led to significant capital formation and domestic as well as outbound investment.”
Founder and Chairman Charles Myers said: “We are thrilled Fred has joined Signum to build out our footprint in the Middle East. We look forward to being on the ground in order to expand our services and client base throughout the Gulf, including Saudi Arabia.”
