BoFA Merill Lynch hires Nomura's Meissner as EMEA head

Bank of America Merrill Lynch has lured investment banking rainmaker Christian Meissner from Nomura.

Meissner will report to Michael Rubinoff and Purna Saggurti, co-heads of global investment banking, and drive the growth of the investment banking  franchise across EMEA, according to a statement today.

He will sit on the global corporate & investment banking operating committee chaired by Tom Montag, president of Global Banking & Markets, and also the relevant regional operating committees.

Based in London, Meissner will join the bank in July 2010. He was deputy head of global investment banking at Nomura and one of the few senior Lehman Brothers bankers to remain following its buyout by the Japanese bank.
