Natixis is testing out a next-generation merchant terminal
Industry magazine The Banker has unveiled its 2016 rankings and has named Natixis “Most Innovative Investment Bank for Equity Derivatives”. The prize awarded by the prestigious banking news magazine underscores the expertise of Natixis’ teams in the equity derivatives arena.
This international award illustrates the capacity of the financial engineering, sales and trading teams at Natixis to generate new solutions to meet clients’ needs. Natixis notably developed a range of NXS indices that houses the full array of the bank’s index products, and also distributed on an exclusive basis new indices launched by Euronext, STOXX, FTSE Russell, Standard & Poor’s and Solactive.
Natixis was also singled out for its capacity to design solutions that integrate systematic equity portfolio hedging strategies and for the introduction of digital training tools destined for use by sales teams at leading banking networks.
“The award acknowledges the success of our strategy which consists of offering clients innovative and tailor-made solutions that also are adapted to the market context and to regulatory changes”, said Éric Le Brusq, Global Head of Equity Derivatives at Natixis.
