He will be joined in his efforts by Matt Yell who will be focusing on working with macro hedge funds. Based in Sydney, Well has almost 30 years of experience in sales and trading roles, having most recently worked for UBS.

Four hires will be based in the DeepWell’s London headquarters. Alex Finney, formerly of Credit Suisse and Brevan Howard, has joined as the firm’s Global Head of FX. He is joined by another former Credit Suisse man, Kieren McCormack, who has been appointed as Head of Origination.
As with Yell, Ajay Patel joins the firm with the goal of focusing on macro hedge funds. Patel has worked at Morgan Stanley, RBS and Deutsche Bank and Blacksquare Capital.
