CIBC World Markets recently moved Takahiro Yamanaka, head of equity derivatives trading in Tokyo, to the head office in Toronto to become an exotic equity trader. The equities pro said he has been with the firm for six-and-a-half years and moved to the Toronto head office for the extra opportunities it offers. He reports to Trevor Radomsky, Canadian head of equity derivatives trading. Yamanaka declined further comment.
Yutaka Yogi, director of equity derivatives in Tokyo, has assumed responsibility for the four-strong trading operation, and said there are no plans for imminent hires.
