About Xavier

My experience as an investment banker in France and London has provided me with high-level insights into financial performance measurement and optimization, deal structuring, negotiation, and the management of company acquisition or divestiture projects, whether through organized auctions or over-the-counter.
I have particular expertise in managing acquisitions or investments from start to finish, taking into account operational, sectoral, contractual, legal, and social aspects, while ensuring the assessment of associated risks, including careful attention to important ESG criteria.
My career has allowed me to support and advise numerous industrial companies and investment funds in both the execution of their operations and in strategic and financial efficiency aspects.
I have a particular sensitivity for creating value while respecting today's human values.
