Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

Financial manager specialized in private equity, I support investment funds (fund of funds and direct funds) on all financial, operational, and regulatory issues related to their life cycle.

With over 7 years of experience gained with leading players (institutional funds, management companies, consulting firms), I work on Private Equity and Private Debt Funds, with a resolutely operational and structuring approach.

My areas of intervention include:

- Active/passive monitoring of funds and investment operations,

- Review of valuations and calculation of net asset values,

- Production and validation of investor reporting,

- Financial, legal, and tax monitoring of vehicles,

- Formalization and optimization of middle and back-office procedures,

- Management of tool projects (fund monitoring, investor extranet, automation).

- Management of relationships with key stakeholders (investors, auditors, custodians, management companies)

Today, as a freelance consultant, I provide operational support or structuring assistance to funds looking to secure their processes, improve the quality of their reporting, and gain operational efficiency.

📩 Open to professional discussions and consulting/financial support assignments.
