Bluefield Partners Plans To Expand Equity Sales Business
Bluefield Partners confirms that it intends to base a larger equity sales operation at its soon-to-be-opened Shanghai offices.
- (1888PressRelease) July 17, 2015 - Shenzen, CHINA - Bluefield Partners, a Shenzen, China-headquartered broker-dealer and wealth manager has confirmed that it intends to make its soon-to-be-opened Shanghai offices the headquarters for an expanded equity sales operation that it believes will complement its ambitions to become a leading Asia-Pacific primary broker-dealer.
Its current operations are modest compared to established primary broker-dealer operations at Asian subsidiaries of American and European banking giants but its size reflects its position as a secondary market operator. Its primary market ambitions have been encouraged by unprecedented levels of IPO activity within the Chinese market.
"We've enjoyed tremendous success within the secondary market and we feel our local perspective will help us to build on our achievements and establish ourselves as a leading player in China's primary market in a very short space of time," said Peter Lo Shu, senior sales trader at the Bluefield Partners Hong Kong office.
The news ends speculation about whether or not a new dealing floor heralded a realization of the firm's primary underwriting ambitions.
Bluefield Partners has not confirmed if it will be seeking to appoint an individual to lead its equity sales operations but industry sources suggest it will be nigh on impossible for the firm to establish a presence in the primary market without a highly-experienced team and speculation is rife that the firm may need to lure a team away from an existing player if it is to make its mark quickly.
"All we're willing to confirm at this stage is the fact that we will need to hit the ground running. How that is to be achieved will be revealed in the fullness of time, I'm sure," said Joel Cooper, newly-appointed Chief Investment Officer at Bluefield Partners.
