BNP Paribas Corporate & Investment Banking (BNP Paribas CIB) announces the reorganisation of its Global Equities and Commodity Derivatives (GECD) business as a proactive measure towards achieving one of BNP Paribas CIB's strategic objectives: becoming a key player in the Equities and Commodity Derivatives world.
The objective of the reorganisation is to increase the efficiency of the business in order to further improve the way we serve our clients both globally and locally. Yann Gérardin, Global Head of GECD, and Olivier Osty, his Deputy, are therefore pleased to announce the following changes:
Changes to the organisation
- More autonomy is given to the GECD Regions in line with BNP Paribas CIB's regionalisation. Edward Speal, newly appointed, heads the Americas Region and Pierre Rousseau heads the Asia Pacific Region. Yann Gérardin and Olivier Osty will manage the European Region.
- The activity is organised around four newly formed businesses: Commodity Derivatives, managed by Amine Bel Hadj Soulami, Market Liquidity Provider headed by Olivier Osty, Structured Equity managed by Nicolas Marque, newly appointed and Flow & Financing under Emmanuel Heurtier, again newly appointed.
- New positions are created to enhance the sharing of know-how whilst maintaining the highest standards in terms of risk management and business ethics: Jacques Vigner is appointed Global Chief Operating Officer / Strategy & Risk, Valérie Rabault is appointed Head of Market Prospective & Business Risk and Constance Chalchat is appointed Head of Communication & People Development.
- With the objective of better addressing specific regional and local needs, an entity dedicated to emerging markets is created.
Enlarged Executive Committee
The GECD Executive Committee is enlarged to welcome the following newly appointed members in addition to Yann Gérardin, Olivier Osty, Amine Bel Hadj Soulami, Pierre Rousseau, Lionel Crassier, Eric Le Brusq and Jacques Vigner: Edward Speal, Emmanuel Heurtier, Nicolas Marque, Valérie Rabault and Constance Chalchat.
Commenting on the new organisation, Yann Gérardin said: "As leaders in our industry we need to continuously adapt to meet the needs of our clients in different types of markets and stay one step ahead of the competition. This reorganisation reaffirms GECD's strong commitment to our clients in all regions combined with our strong risk management and ethical approach to business. I strongly believe these to be key differentiating points, enabling BNP Paribas to excel and pave the way for the future of the derivatives industry”.
