Groupe BPCE’s Supervisory Board gathered on April 26, 2018 and took note of François Pérol’s decision to resign as Chairman of the Management Board, appointing Laurent Mignon, CEO of Natixis, to succeed him.

Laurent Mignon’s new role will become effective as of June 1, 2018 when he steps down as CEO of Natixis.

In a sense of continuity, this hand-over will strengthen existing close ties between BPCE and Natixis whose clear and shared strategic vision underlies the « New Dimension » plan unveiled on November 20, 2017.

Natixis appointed François Riahi, asserting Natixis’ strategic and financial ambitions in both the short and the medium term.

He has been a member of Groupe BPCE’s General Management Committee since 2009 and a member of its Management Board since 2013.

After graduating from HEC in 1986 and the Stanford Executive Program, Laurent Mignon worked for Banque Indosuez for over 10 years, initially in capital markets, then in corporate & investment banking. In 1996, he joined Banque Schroders in London, then AGF (Assurances Générales de France) in 1997 as Chief Financial Officer.

In 2006, he was appointed Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Executive Committee. From 2007 to 2009, he was managing partner at Oddo & Cie.
