Jeffries Group LCC hired former head of U.S. Treasuries trading at Citigroup Inc., Steven Kim, to its Treasuries trading group in New York, a person familiar with the matter said.

Citigroup’s spokesman, Scott Helfman, and Jeffries’ spokesman, Richard Khaleel, both did not comment.

Kim moved to New York to run U.S. Treasuries trading this year, after working for Citigroup in Tokyo as a U.S. interest-rates trader.
