About Hazel Dsouza

I build businesses in markets where others see obstacles.With 20+ years in Global Markets — spanning derivatives clearing, electronic execution, prime services and institutional coverage across India and Asia — I am known for taking on complex, high-stakes mandates and delivering results that consistently exceed expectations.At Credit Suisse, I led the India Prime Derivatives business through a full turnaround, delivering a 5x increase in revenue over three years and elevating the franchise from a #9 position to a sustained top-3 ranking. I later relocated to Singapore to build and lead the South Asia Prime Derivatives business, where I designed and launched a first-to-market trading solution, exceeding first-year revenue expectations by 60% and establishing a new growth engine for the franchise.At Citi, I lead the India Futures Derivatives Clearing and Electronic Execution business — focused on market share expansion, platform development and institutional client strategy — integrating clearing, execution and prime capabilities to deliver differentiated, end-to-end solutions for clients.I operate at the intersection of strategy and execution — building institutional client franchises, developing differentiated product offerings and leading cross-functional teams across Prime Services, Trading, Risk and Technology to deliver outcomes at scale.Beyond my core role, I actively mentor talent and support early-stage women founders across Asia as an angel investor.Please feel free to connect.
