Stock Trader Rejoins Jefferies & Co.
From Bloomberg News
Anthony Sanfilippo, a stock trader who was once chief executive of Knight Trading Group Inc., has rejoined Jefferies & Co. as director of listed trading.
Sanfilippo, 47, worked for Jefferies from 1980 to 1986. He resigned from Knight, the biggest market maker of small-capitalization stocks, in June as the company broadened its business from making trades for discount brokers to brokerage for institutional investors.
At Jefferies, which changed its headquarters from Los Angeles to New York two years ago, Sanfilippo will be in charge of making trades in stocks listed on the New York Stock Exchange and other regional exchanges.
Robert O’Hara, 57, who has run listed equities at Jefferies for five years, is retiring.
