Lourens Janse van Rensburg

Dhiren Mansingh

Head: Treasury, sales and structuring

I head up a team that consists of both the sales and trading functions for interest rates, foreign exchange, commodities, and money markets. The team is primarily involved in the management of our client's treasury requirements from a short-term operational aspect as well as that of a longer-term, strategic nature.

From an operational component (the sales role) we look at all physical foreign exchange and money market requirements and with the structuring role, cover requirements around all derivative activities, especially those of foreign exchange, commodity, and interest rate.

The client base spans corporates, commercial clients, parastatals, government bodies, high net-worth individuals, institutions, and property companies. The team aims to mitigate our client’s risks to these underlying asset classes.

The interest rate and foreign exchange trading desks also form part of Treasury Sales and Structuring. Through these desks, we market make in a variety of different currency pairs, bonds, and fixed income derivative instruments.
