LONDON, April 7 (Reuters) - Marex Spectron has appointed Sam
Mehew to the newly created role of head of steel and ferrous
derivatives with responsibility for building up its ferrous and
aluminium premium businesses, the commodities broker said in a
release on Tuesday.
Mehew was previously at Freight Investor Services (FIS), a
dry bulk freight derivatives broker.
"We have been broking iron ore for some time and have
noticed an increased interest in ferrous products over the last
year," said Marex Spectron President Simon van den Born. "We
believe that ferrous products -- iron ore, scrap metal and steel
-- are a growth business."
