Steen Jakobsen Re-joins Saxo Bank

Denmark (ots/PRNewswire)

Saxo Bank announced today that the Group has reappointed Steen Jakobsen to the position of Saxo Bank's Chief Economist.

Mr. Jakobsen returns to the Bank after two years' absence. During that time he has been Chief Investment Officer for Limus Capital Partners. Prior to his departure in early 2009, Mr. Jakobsen was with Saxo Bank for almost nine years.

Mr. Jakobsen has more than 20+ years of experience within the fields of proprietary trading and alternative investment.

Mr. Jakobsen will report directly to the top management and begin work on 17 March with an appearance as guest host on CNBC Europe. This is a role he has tried before and that he will be taking on in the future, too.
