Edwin Nabbe, Co-founding Managing Director of Bellier, said: “Bellier has had a long and close professional working relationship with Anton, who combines extensive experience in financial journalism with an in-depth understanding of financial markets thanks to previous positions with Dutch investment brokers and market makers. We are pleased to welcome Anton to our team and are confident that he will make a strong contribution to the growth of the business, not only in the Netherlands but across the diverse industry sectors and pan-European markets Bellier covers.”
Anton has over 16 years of writing and editing experience as a financial journalist and was previously managing editor at Dow Jones news wires, De Telegraaf newspaper, FD financial daily and IEX Premium magazine. Prior to his career as a journalist, Anton worked in sales, trading and research at various investment brokers and market makers in Amsterdam.
Anton holds a master’s degree in International Financial Economics from the University of Amsterdam and a post-graduate degree from Amsterdam’s Free University (VU). He is a registered financial analyst with an RBA designation and a member of CFA Society VBA Netherlands where he held the position of marketing and communications manager.
Anton Reijinga said: “At Bellier I will be able to draw on my experience as a financial journalist as well as a financial analyst. In financial PR and communications, we share the same goal: to tell the story behind the numbers and make complex financial information come to life. I am honoured to start with Bellier, which I see as one of the most creative firms in this sector.”
