Barclays has appointed Arnaud Bouyer as head of investment banking for France BeLux, effective September.
Taking overall responsibility for the French investment banking business, Bouyer will work with Francois Baroin, chairman of Barclays in France and global chairman of investment banking, and Raoul Salomon, France CEO, as the firm continues to expand its business in the region.
Baroin commented: “We have ambitious aims to further accelerate growth in France and Arnaud’s appointment will provide strong leadership for Investment Banking and additional momentum as we plan to move to new offices later next year.”
Bouyer has more than two decades of industry experience and joins Barclays from GBL, where has been an investment partner since 2022. The majority of his career has been spent at Morgan Stanley, where he was co-head and later managing director of investment banking for France.
Tim Main, head of investment banking for EMEA at Barclays, added: “Success in France is key to our overall European growth plan. Arnaud is an experienced banker with a great reputation and the combination of his experience and expertise with that of Francois Baroin will provide unique benefits for our clients.”
