After joining LBP AM in November 2020, Guillaume Lasserre today succeeds Vincent Cornet as Chief Investment Officer. Mr Cornet, a member of LBP AM’s Executive Board and Deputy CEO of LFDE, will take charge of strategy for the LBP AM Group.

Reporting to Emmanuelle Mourey, Chair of LBP AM's Executive Board, Guillaume Lasserre will be responsible for the Multi-asset and Absolute Return platforms as well as Quantitative Equity Management and Structured Products – business areas that totalled around €36bn in assets under management as of 30 September 2024. He will also supervise the Financial and Extra-financial Research and SRI Solutions teams while retaining his position as Chair of the Group's various investment committees, including that of LBP AM's European Private Assets platform.

“Guillaume’s appointment as CIO at LBP AM follows an exemplary track record within the Group over the past four years. I am counting on him to continue to develop our investment capabilities in the listed assets segment and our range of tailor-made solutions for all our clients in France and Europe, and to consolidate our innovative and recognised positioning when it comes to sustainable finance,” said Emmanuelle Mourey, Chair of LBP AM's Executive Board.

“Guillaume has all the skills needed to succeed in his new role. I would like to offer him my personal congratulations on his well-deserved appointment. As for me, I am delighted that I will be able to spend more time with the LFDE teams from now on providing them with even more operational support at what is a pivotal and exciting time, since the merger with LBP AM and the absorption of Tocqueville Finance,” said Vincent Cornet, member of LBP AM’s Executive Board and Deputy CEO of LFDE.

Guillaume Lasserre (48) has over 20 years of experience in the asset management sector. He began his career at SGAM Alternative Investments, which later was integrated within Lyxor AM, where he became Global CIO in 2018. In November 2020, he joined LBP AM in the role of Deputy CIO.
