BNP Paribas has been
awarded “Most Innovative Investment Bank for Equity Derivatives” and “Most
Innovative Investment Bank for Structured Investor Products” in The Banker
magazine’s annual Investment Banking awards 2018.
This is the second
consecutive year in which BNP Paribas has won the Structured Investment
Products category, while it last won the Equity Derivatives award in 2013.
Emmanuel Dray, Global Head of Equity Derivatives Institutional Sales at BNP
Paribas, received the awards at a ceremony in London last night.
In an article published
in the September issue of the magazine, The Banker said: “In 2017, BNP Paribas’
market share increased some 15% year on year, according to data firm Coalition.
But what sees it take home the trophy for equity derivatives is its structuring
track record, embrace of digitisation, and expansion of the equity derivatives
investor base.
“While Europe is still
its core market, the group’s recent revenue growth has been fuelled by business
in the US and Asia-Pacific.”
Nicolas Marque, Global Head of Equity Derivatives said: “We have been in the equity derivatives
business for more than 20 years and our business model is based on long-term
client relationships. We look forward to continuing to serve our clients
globally through our innovative solutions.”
