Angela Lobo has joined Jefferies as head of eSales & sales chief operating officer (COO). Lobo, highly experienced and well-regarded in the electronic sales and trading space, joins as a veteran of Morgan Stanley, where she spent nearly 15 years in fixed income trading and sales roles.

Lobo worked for close to a decade at Bloomberg as a relationship manager, a firm she joined in 2000 from BNP Paribas, where she had spent three years in relationship management covering capital markets.

Emmanuel Parrenin, head of fixed income business resource management at Jefferies, says, “As Jefferies continues to invest heavily in the electronic and systematic trading ecosystem, we are delighted to have someone of Angela’s caliber join our team to lead our e-Sales effort. Her expertise and experience complement Jefferies’ existing talent base, and her appointment further positions us to successfully serve our clients in Europe.”

Jefferies won a European Markets Choice Award in 2023 for its expansion in fixed income liquidity provision, with buy-side traders citing its support for them in difficult markets, a number of good hires on the desk, and its expansion in the electronic trading and algo space.
