She has led BNPP IP’s sales activities related to banks and insurance companies in France since 2007, and for the past two years has been responsible for co‐ordinating the company’s sales to insurance companies around the world. She will also be based in London.
Simons is a seasoned RFP specialist with 18 years of experience in financial markets. She has been leading and developing RFP, due diligence and marketing activities since 2000 with GAM, Franklin Templeton Investments and Old Mutual Global Investors. At Franklin Templeton she ran the firm’s global RFP activity, managing an integrated team of writers across the US, Europe and Asia.
David Bouchoucha, deputy head of the institutional business line, says: “Our segment sales heads play a vital role in our new Institutional sales organisation, providing the various types of institutional investor with the product, service and support that they need.
“Marc and Anne are vastly experienced in their areas and their solutions‐driven approach to sales will be of great benefit to our clients. Meanwhile, Katherine has proven her ability to lead and develop RFP teams in her previous roles, and is a great addition to the company. All three appointments are further evidence of our desire to provide a top‐level service to our institutional clients.”
