BNP Paribas has shaken up the senior ranks of its UK dealmaking team as it looks to gain share from rivals in Europe's biggest investment banking fee pool.

John Bigham has been named head of UK coverage, according to a memo seen by Financial News, taking the reins from Simon Gates, who has moved to the US to lead the French bank's corporate banking business in the region.
