Citi appoints FIG banker for Nordic push

US bank becomes second in as many days to hire a top banker to lead a drive into the Scandinavian region on expectations of banking consolidation

Citigroup has become the second bank in as many days to hire a top banker to push into the Nordic region, on expectations of banking consolidation in the Danish market.

The US bank has hired Per-Henrik Lewander from the Royal Bank of Scotland to run its FIG division in the Nordic region. The move means a return to the US bank for Lewander, having begun his banking career at Citigroup in 2001.
