At least seven new portfolio managers have joined Dymon this year, plus around 15 interns and juniors. Dymon can afford to expand. Financial News says the fund, which manages around $3bn, gained 8% through to early June.
Alongside the portfolio manager recruits, Adrian Li joined from Grab as a director in Dymon's AI team in March. Grab is another Singaporean darling, but it’s had faltering compensation recently.
Most of Dymon’s hires came from banks and rival funds. For example, it brought in Deutsche Bank’s Singapore-based head of global emerging markets portfolio risk management, KJ Choi, an 18-year veteran of the German bank.
Two of the new faces on our list below are from Millennium: portfolio managers Ayoub Spitalier and Anass Hammedi, who joined in Dubai and Singapore, respectively. They’ll be in good company; Bloomberg noted in April that Dymon picked also picked up Millennium PM Shao Ying that month.
The table below shows the new faces at Dymon Asia Capital that have joined in 2025, when and where exactly they joined, and where they came from in turn. We’ve left out the interns and some other more junior roles – Dymon hires a lot of the former in particular.
