Joanne Lim has been named head of trading for APAC at Jain Global, almost two years after she initially joined the firm.
The move marks a promotion for Hong Kong-based Lim, who brings more than 15 years of industry experience to her new position, spanning both the buy- and sell-side.
Lim confirmed her new position in an announcement on social media.
She joined former Credit Suisse and Millennium veteran, Bobby Jain’s hedge fund in June 2024 as a senior trader, a month prior to the firm’s launch in July the same year.
