Molinero Capital Management has recruited a new Applied Research Group comprised of three senior researchers. The researchers were previously trading at Louis Dreyfus Commodities and represent on a combined basis about 40 years of trading experience.

Rafael Molinero says: “We always have put an emphasis on quantitative research and also truly believes to be critical of our success. This is a great opportunity for us to work with talented and like minded individuals with whom we share the same values while having complimentary knowledge. We are simply thrilled and look forward to working together.”

The Molinero Capital Management team is now composed of ten people with nine dedicated to Research. Earlier in 2010, Guillaume Dehan joined as Director of Business Development.

Rafael Molinero says: “Guillaume will play a key role in better servicing our existing clients and growing our institutional business. His 10 years of experience, and strong understanding of the industry will prove invaluable in developing our business.”
