BNP Paribas Securities Services has appointed Franck Dubois, the current head of France and Belgium, as regional head of Asia Pacific (APAC).
In his new role, Dubois will continue to expand the business in APAC, where BNP Paribas Securities Services has seen an average yearly increase of 18 percent in assets under custody over the last six years.
Based in Hong Kong, Dubois will report regionally to Paul Yang, CEO of corporate and institutional banking (CIB) APAC, while reporting globally to Alessandro Gioffreda, global head of territory management.
Dubois has held a number of senior roles within the bank’s CIB and securities services business in APAC and Europe.
Yang commented: “With Dubois’ deep industry knowledge, we are confident that our business will continue to grow for our clients across APAC. Dubois brings with him direct experience from our biggest markets in Europe, as well as knowledge of the local environment having previously worked in Hong Kong.”
Gioffreda said: “Dubois brings a wealth of client and operations experience to this important role in charge of one of our fastest growing regions. Under his leadership, we intend to continue to grow our business in APAC, positioning ourselves as a long-term partner to our clients and accompanying them in their domestic and international development.”
Meanwhile, Pierre Jond replaces Franck Dubois as head of France and Belgium, effective 1 August. Jond will also report to Alessandro Gioffreda.
Jond, who joined in 1994, is currently the chief of staff for Patrick Colle, CEO of BNP Paribas Securities Services.
His previous roles include head of corporate trust services and head of Australia and New Zealand.
Jond’s responsibilities will be to continue to develop BNP Paribas Securities Services’ commercial offering, most notably towards institutional investors, and implement our strategy to be the leading positive impact custodian.
