UBS has hired a Citigroup veteran to co-head its equity capital markets unit in the Americas, as the Swiss bank makes a fresh push in the unit as part of a broader investment banking expansion.

Gregor Feige has joined UBS as co-head of Americas ECM, and will lead the unit alongside Brad Miller, who will take on the role in addition to his position as head of consumer and retail, according to a memo seen by Financial News.
