Russia’s Renaissance Capital hires head of EMEA strategy

By Andrei Skvarsky.

Renaissance Capital has handed the role of chief strategist for Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) to Daniel Salter, whom the Moscow-based emerging markets investment bank hired from UniCredit.

Salter, whose 15-year investment banking career has comprised a series of jobs in London and Moscow, was head of EMEA equity strategy and head of Russian equity research at UniCredit, where he worked from 2010 to 2012.

In these roles, he focused on mainstream and frontier markets. “His remit included country and sector allocation, bottom-up stock selection, investor flows and quantitative screening,” RenCap said in a statement.

In 2002-2010, Salter was head of EMEA equity strategy and head of Russia & CIS equity research at ING, and before that led ABN AMRO’s equity business in Russia, which included sales, trading and research.

He started his career as a portfolio manager for emerging markets equities at Deutsche Asset Management.
