RUSSELL Julius has returned to ING Barings after a stint of almost three years at Jardine Fleming, where he was co-head of Asian investment banking and head of Asian capital markets. He has been appointed managing director and head of equity capital markets worldwide, based in London. JF has appointed Alex Yule Smith, who has been with the firm since leaving Morgan Stanley in 1991, as Julius' replacement, although much of his position will be divided between existing Asia equity capital markets members Rupert Fane and Vincent Tong. Yule Smith is expected to concentrate on JF's EFIL-related business from Hong Kong, Tong on Greater China including Taiwan and Fane on the remainder of Asia.
