WHO AM I?
At 35 years old, I am passionate about national and international politics as well as the strategic challenges that arise from them. While my political inclinations lean toward the center-right, I have never been affiliated with any political party or movement.
Community Engagement: Sport4Hope
One phrase my mother often repeated to me is: “You must give to receive.” This philosophy has driven me to invest in causes close to my heart, including that of Yannick Tachet, a childhood friend who suffers from a rare genetic disease: spinal muscular atrophy. Despite his condition, Yannick is a fighter who continues to inspire those around him.
When he shared his dream of creating an association to help children with rare genetic diseases, I didn’t hesitate for a second to support him. Together, we founded Sport4Hope, an association where sport is a vehicle of hope. I contributed by creating the entire website, the graphic charter, the logo, the typography, and providing digital support.
In September 2021, Yannick achieved the incredible feat of completing a Semi-Ironman, and in December 2021, he was named Personality of the Côte 2021.
Passion for Sports and Family Legacy
I am also passionate about sports, with a particular affection for Olympique de Marseille—a passion passed down by my father. From a young age, he introduced me to the city of Marseille, its iconic stadium, and the unique atmosphere of its supporters.
Self-Taught and Curious
I love learning and tackling challenges on my own. As a self-taught individual, I have acquired a wide range of skills:
-
Programming in VBA, creating websites, and video editing,
-
Learning to play the piano,
-
Designing a cryptocurrency,
-
Renovating a house.
For me, doing is the best way to learn.
Travel and Cultural Openness
I’ve had the privilege of traveling the world and discovering fascinating cultures. From the Rajasthan region, where I attended a traditional wedding, to the West Coast of the United States, these experiences have broadened my perspective. They have made me more humble and open to differences.

Professional Profile
Curious, open-minded, and always eager to learn, I have had the privilege of enriching myself throughout more than 15 years of experience in the financial industry.
Top scorer in the BCV entrance exam, the youngest candidate to pass the SIX exam at age 20, and the youngest manager at Swissquote at age 21, I am a self-taught finance enthusiast.
Despite an atypical and sometimes challenging academic journey, my natural curiosity and rapid learning ability allowed me to overcome these obstacles. These qualities, combined with unwavering determination, have been the driving force behind my success.
Professional Experience
Banking Apprenticeship - BCV
My banking apprenticeship at Banque Cantonale Vaudoise marked the beginning of my journey. It taught me professional discipline, the importance of personal development, and the core principles of banking.
Swissquote Bank
2008 – Entry into the Middle Office
Joining Swissquote Bank in 2008 gave me the opportunity to explore a wide range of financial products, gaining familiarity with numerous asset classes such as equities, bonds, investment funds, derivatives, forex, and fiduciary deposits.
2011 – Transition to Trading
In 2011, I was tasked with creating an in-house bond trading desk. This ambitious project allowed me to negotiate with the largest global banking players.
2012 – Associate Director and Team Leader
Promoted to Associate Director, I took responsibility for developing and structuring the bond trading activity. This exciting challenge led, in 2014, to the official launch of our in-house trading desk, featuring over 100 counterparties, around 60,000 bonds, and innovative internal systems that I led from concept to implementation.
2016 – Head of Fund Trading
I expanded my expertise by taking on responsibility for fund trading, managing a team of three traders. This role provided me with deep insights into this specialized field, from negotiating with fund managers to managing retrocessions and implementing regulatory frameworks.
2017 – Lombard Credit Business Manager
In 2017, I led the implementation of a semi-automated Lombard credit application process. This transformation replaced a fully manual process with a digitalized solution, allowing clients to submit requests in just a few clicks.
2018 – Deputy Head of Trading Department and Management Member
My appointment as Deputy Head expanded my responsibilities, particularly regarding the bank’s strategic direction. I also gained valuable experience navigating the political dynamics of a 1,000-employee organization. By fostering a clear vision and rallying teams around shared goals, I contributed to collective successes.
2019 – Investment Committee Member
As a member of the Investment Committee, I shared insights on financial markets, designed internal investment models, and contributed to the bank’s overall investment strategy.
2020 – Asset Management Committee
As part of the Asset Management Committee, I developed an innovative bond investment strategy. I designed a semi-automated algorithm to rebalance portfolios based on macroeconomic, sectoral, and geographic indicators. While the algorithm proposes actions, human oversight remains central to the decision-making process. My experience in a fintech environment demonstrated the immense potential of automation, but it also reinforced my belief that humans must remain at the heart of critical processes.
Vision and Outlook
Always seeking new challenges, I am driven by the desire to learn and contribute to ambitious, innovative projects. I am confident that the future holds exciting opportunities to explore.
