Paul Matherne

Global Head of FX Forwards BNY Mellon

Paul moved to London in 2007 to further build the Eastern European Short Term Interest Rate Trading desk (STIRT) at Deutsche Bank Frankfurt, which became the market leading trading desk in this area for many years under his tenure. Paul then focused on building the STIRT business in South Africa, which also became market leading under his leadership, until he turned his focus on building the Asia business from 2012 and helped develop the newly internationalized offshore RMB market.  Here Paul represented Deutsche Bank in the industry working groups to develop offshore CNH and became Deutsche Bank’s head of Asian Fixed income and currencies (FIC) in the West, where he managed trading desks in London and New York that were focused on delivering all FIC Asia products to western investors.  Paul left Deutsche Bank at the end of 2016 to join BNY Mellon as the Global Head of FX Forwards, where he has been instrumental in developing the existing successful FX Swap Franchise into a broader STIRT business.
