Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank announced today
the appointment of Benoit Fosseprez as Head of Americas GIB (Global

An officer of the bank for the past 13 years, Mr. Fosseprez had
since September 2012 served in New York City as Managing Director,
Global Head of Telecoms and Head of TMT (Telecom-Media-Tech

“The promotion of Benoit to Head of Investment Banking in the
Americas underscores the commitment and determined focus Crédit
Agricole CIB is making to further develop our activities and
participation in North and South Americas, as well as to better
service our many clients in the region,” said Jean-François
Deroche, CEO of Credit Agricole CIB in the Americas. “Benoit’s
deep, successful experience as an investment banker in many markets
in EMEA, Asia and Americas makes him well suited to lead this
effort, which will involve both domestic and cross-border
capabilities.”
Among his responsibilities, Mr. Fosseprez will supervise ECM
(Equity Capital Markets), M&A, SET (Strategic Equity
Transactions) and SFS (Structured Financial Solutions). Christina
Livas, Head of GIB for Brazil, will also report to him. Mr.
Fosseprez will report locally to New York City-based Stephane

Mr. Fosseprez since joining Crédit Agricole has served in Paris
as M&A banker, TMT Investment Banking Director and, later, TMT
Managing Director and Global Head of Telecom. He has been in New
York City in his most recent assignment since September 2012. Prior
to joining Crédit Agricole, and following service as a French naval
officer, he was an auditor with Price Waterhouse Coopers in Paris.
Mr. Fosseprez holds a Master’s Degree with a Major in Corporate
Finance from the EDHEC Business School. He also attended the
International University of Business and Economics in Beijing,
China.
Simultaneously, Crédit Agricole CIB also reported the
appointment of John Hartke, who joined Crédit Agricole in April
2012, as Head of M&A for the U.S., Canada and Mexico.
“We are pleased to welcome John to his new position,” said Mr.

Merrill Lynch, he brought us his broad M&A banking experience
and contributed to our first successes in the Region in 2013. He
will now supervise the origination and execution of M&A
transactions, in addition to continuing to develop business in all
three countries.”
