are you sure this time?

I love your "whatever", it seems to be your very personal, nice, way of saying you made a mistake. Maybe you learn from it.

Whatever, mate... I am not desperate to prove anything to an Internet audience. I am even less motivated (if I could imagine such a state) to provide evidence etc in order to prove anything to you.

As to embarrassment, you're making me laugh once again (thank you for this; I need the entertainment on a day like today)...

This will truly be my last post on the subject.

Sabri is head of desk under Interest Rates Exotics. You are again making up stories. Do I need to post a screenshot of his bio from bbg which proves that? How big an ego one must have to be unable to admit one has been wrong...sad.

Against my better judgement, let me speak on this matter one last time...

Firstly, an exotics book will, obviously, have swaptions and swaps in it, among other derivatives. That's simply a function of how they hedge the various risks in the book. This in no way implies that the exotics desk would be involved in market-making vanilla IRS and swaptions, although they would, of course, trade these products. They are clients (whether captive or not varies from bank to bank) of their flow franchises.

Secondly, regarding Barclays. The Barclays "Rates Options" group in London, which makes mkts in "flow" rates vol products, such as swaptions & caps/floors, is currently run by Sabri El Jailani. The exotic/structured rates team is run by a lady called Xiao Wu. These are distinct teams with their distinct responsibilities.

But, whatever, honestly, it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things...

So, your guy does not work within Exotic Rates? I don't think so. I think that pretty much says it all, you are the ape and you are wrong. Chapter closed.

How sad that someone who has been factually proven wrong and after insisting so many times on a contrary opinion cannot even come here and publicly apologize. Character is what makes the difference. One can behave like an ape but when one is proven incorrect with obvious facts to just curl up the tail and disappear and continue to sprue his bla bla in different threads just shows weak character.
