FX & Rates Trader

ING Wholesale Banking in Singapore

We began operating in Singapore in 1987 where we host the regional Asia Pacific headquarters. With over 300 financial experts, we are the largest wholesale banking branch in Asia. ING stands out in the Asia Pacific region because we go a step further for our customers. We look at things from the client’s perspective which allows us to construct tailor-made solutions to fit the needs of every company we serve. This mentality underpins all our client relations and has produced various prestigious awards.

Financial Markets in ING

The Financial Markets (FM) FX Rates and Derivatives Trading Desk in Singapore manages the bank’s FX and interest rates risks stemming from client franchise facilitation within a continuously evolving market dynamic. We are significant players in the markets we operate in with specialist expertise in selected Asia markets and products.

Main Duties and Responsibilities of the Trader Role

This is a unique and exciting opportunity to join a diverse and talented group of individuals who are truly passionate about trading and financial markets. You are making markets and managing risks using the different financial instruments in your toolkit – spot, swaps, NDFs, IRS, CCS, bonds, derivatives, and other linear products. Whilst this is a full-time permanent role based in Singapore, you will be collaborating with colleagues from different backgrounds across our Asian and global network.

Is this for you?

Ideally, you should have at least 8 years of trading Asian FX Rates products, and able to assist in FX options and STIR/LTIR with a proven track record of success. You would have completed your university degree in finance, economics, maths, or the sciences, and comfortable with complex analysis on large numbers. Above all, we look for candidates who share our values and vision outlined in the Orange Code -- our manifesto describing the values and behaviours that define us and what it means to be ING.
