Pricing Partners, the independent valuation expert, providing services for derivatives and structured products, has opened a new regional office in Singapore as part of a business drive in Asia.

The firm has offices in Paris and London. The Singapore office will be directed by Rosh K Rai. Prior to working with Pricing Partners, Rosh worked for a derivatives solution firm and Thomson Reuters Financial in both Hong Kong and Singapore developing business throughout the Asia Pacific region.

Rosh’s large practice and deep knowledge of financial markets should propel Pricing Partners’ Asian development to new heights.

Founded by former professionals of the trading floor, working in investment banks like Goldman Sachs, Société Générale, Natixis or HSBC, Pricing Partners has become a major player in the financial derivatives fields in the past two years. In October 2008, Pricing Partners launched its Internet independent valuation platform, Price-it® Online.
