Citigroup’s global head of investment banking has been hired by private equity giant Blackstone to lead a new division within its credit unit.

Tyler Dickson, who was installed as sole head of Citi’s dealmaking unit in a shake-up last year, will join Blackstone overseeing its institutional client solutions team within its credit and insurance business, the firm said in a statement.
