LONDON, Jan 20 (Reuters) - Hedge fund Silver Ridge (Kuala Lumpur: 0129.KL - news) , which invests in assets including rates and currencies, has hired three new team-members, the Financial Conduct Authority's online register showed.

The firm headed by Citigroup (NYSE: C - news) 's former head of foreign exchange, Anil Prasad, secured permission from the regulator to trade in December, after a 9-month delay.

Citigroup Global Markets's Paul Murray joined Silver Ridge on Dec. 14, the FCA register showed, while Graham Capital portfolio manager Marangatty Karthikeyan and interest rate options trader Jean-David Aube joined on Jan. 11.

Co-founder Farhang Mehregani, a former equity trader at Citigroup, confirmed the new hires, but declined to comment further.
