BNP Paribas, a leading European bank, revealed it has tapped Dorothée Regazzoni to lead its South Korean branch in Seoul. The company said on Tuesday, March 5, that she will replace Aymar de Liedekerke Beaufort, who was assigned to Hong Kong to head BNP Paribas' APAC banking unit.
As per The Korea Times, as Regazzoni takes over, she is expected to be at the helm of BNP Paribas' entire business activities in South Korea. She will directly report to the company's chief of Asia Pacific operations, Paul Yang.
Regazzoni's Extensive Background in the Banking Industry
The new leader of BNP Paribas' Korean operations has over 25 years of work experience in corporate banking. The BNP Paribas Group first hired her in 2009, when she assumed the role of senior banker in the firm's office in Switzerland. Since then, she has held various executive jobs across the European corporate banking business.
Her most recent role was as head of BNP Paribas' Multinational Corporate Coverage, Corporate, and Institutional Banking unit at the headquarters in Paris, France. She also worked for Citigroup Switzerland before landing a job at BNP Paribas. Regazzoni earned her MBA from the University of St. Gallen in Switzerland.
Bank's CEO Believes in Regazzoni's Ability to Lead the Seoul Operations
BNP Paribas' chief executive officer in Asia Pacific, Paul Yang, is convinced Dorothee Regazonni is the perfect choice to handle the firm's South Korean business.
"Korea is an important market for BNP Parava, and we support key strategic customers in Korea and internationally," Aju Economic Daily said the CEO in a statement. "With Dorothee's deep knowledge of corporate and institutional banking and considerable experience in various industries, we are confident that BNP Paribas' Korean business will further develop under her leadership."
