BNP Paribas Wealth Management has appointed Marc Kermaidic as chief operating officer for wealth management in Asia, effective 1 June.
Kermaidic is currently head of investment services development for BNP Paribas Wealth Management’s global Asian and international markets. Prior to taking up this role in 2017, he was head of investment counselling in Hong Kong. He moved there from Dubai in 2013, where he built up considerable experience, both as head of products for the Middle East & North Africa market and then as commercial head for the Middle East sites.
“With a strong background in financial markets, products and services, and client facing sales experience, I am confident that Marco will help us further strengthen our platform in Asia to keep improving our efficiency and quality of service,” said Arnaud Tellier, Asia CEO of BNP Paribas Wealth Management.
Kermaidic succeeds Long Doan, who will take up a new role within BNP Paribas, which will be announced in due course.
Based in Singapore, Kermaidic will report directly to Tellier and functionally to Pierre Vincent, COO and chief transformation officer of BNP Paribas Wealth Management.
