Work History

Chief Risk Officer - CIB/AM Americas

BNP Paribas
New York, NY
07.2016 - Current
  • In charge of all credit, counterparty, market, liquidity, operational and cyber risks for the CIB Americas platform. Managing a team of approximately 120 staff.
  • Implementing the Operational Risk Management Function (current size – 45 staff) and framework after it was moved to Risk from Compliance in 2016. This meant building a strong and experienced management team, as well as extending the coverage of the team to Information, Communication, Cyber and Technology Risks in 2018. Developing a governance framework through the Wholesale Internal Control Committee (which I chair) and includes the CIB Americas CEO, COO and both 1LOD and 2LOD line management.
  • Executive sponsor for all CIB Americas Risk related Regulatory and Internal Audit remediation and recommendations. Working with the Business and Function leads as well as with Internal Audit and the Supervisory Relations Group to ensure that all recommendations have the necessary resources, prioritization and planning to allow for a timely completion.
  • Interacting with both US and European regulators through quarterly continuous monitoring meetings and specific and thematic reviews (both firm focused or horizontal).
  • Co-partnered with the 1LOD on strategic business developments such as the 2019 build of the Leveraged Debt Finance Platform, the accelerating growth of the Prime Services activity in 2020/2021 and the Financial Sponsors and Institutional Clients initiative. This has meant hiring staff with the right expertise, developing the Risk Appetite Framework, metrics and governance through regular steering committees.
  • Re-vitalize a Corporate Credit Risk function, where there had been little staff movement for several years; where the relationship with the Business units was tense and sometimes hostile. I completely restructured the team through changing the management team and bringing in new staff from outside of the Bank as well as encouraging the new managers to develop “bench” strength through the hiring of more junior staff.
  • Participating in various management leadership forums at both Regional and Global levels. Examples include the CIB Americas ExCo and Leadership Forum, the Group Risk Leadership forum and the Risk Americas ExCo.
