She has also been at the forefront of guiding Bank of America’s trading operations through Covid related market disruption. Under her leadership, Bank of America’s Emea FICC business has had one of its best quarters, while its Emea rates business is on course for one of its strongest years ever in 2020, with revenue soaring by 100% in the year to July. In 2019, she played a lead role in implementing Bank of America’s Brexit strategy by growing the firm’s rates trading presence on the continent. She also leads the Inter-Bank Offered Rate (IBOR) transition programme for the firm’s global markets business. A trained classical vocalist, Singh began her career as one of only a handful of women on the trading floor at Lehman Brothers. Following stints at Insight Investment and HSBC, she joined Bank of America’s swaps desk five years ago and has been on an upward trajectory since.
