Governance

The Newedge vision is to become a world-leading business in a highly competitive and highly regulated marketplace – one in which transparency and impartiality are as important as speed and efficiency. It is imperative, therefore, that Newedge be an independent market player, one that:

  • is distinct from parent banks
  • has minimized conflicts of interest
  • offers services directly to the markets

Newedge operates with a transparent structure for effective governance and to ensure autonomy across operational functions.

 

The board of directors is comprised of eight members shared by the parent banks, plus one independent non-voting observer. The chairmanship of the business rotates between the two parent companies on a two-year basis.

 

Board Members

For Société Générale:

  • Jacques Ripoll (Vice Chairman)
  • Olivier Khayat
  • Benoit Ottenwaelter
  • Christian Schricke
  • Didier Valet

 

For Crédit Agricole CIB:

  • Ducan Goldie-Morrison (Chairman)
  • Thomas Gadenne
  • Jerome Grivet
  • Daniel Puyo
  • Bertrand Badre

and as observer, Jean-François Verny

 

Three committees have been set up with direct oversight from the Board of Directors, namely the Compensation Committee, the Risk Committee and the Audit Committee.

 

Newedge has implemented a global commercial organization spanning three regions (Americas, Europe-Middle East and Asia-Pacific) and established an Executive Committee of nine members whose mission is to ensure the strategic management of the Group under the authority of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer as well as to define Group strategy.
