FX Options Head Kaushik Dutta Joins Credit Agricole from Societe Generale

Kaushik Dutta has relinquished his position as Asian FX options head at Societe Generale, taking his veteran FX services to Credit Agricole in the group’s Hong Kong office.

Back in September, FX specialist, Nat Payne, left his role as FX director at UniCredit to take up employment at Credit Agricole in a similar role. The group has been relatively muted in terms of hires since.

Mr. Dutta will be based out of Hong Kong, where he will report to Credit Agricole’s global head of non-linear FX trading, Richard Bailey. Mr. Dutta joins from Societe Generale, having worked there as its head of FX options in Asia for nearly four years.
