BNP Paribas has announced the appointment of Anne Pointet as Head of Company Engagement and a member of its Executive Committee, with both roles taking effect on 1 July 2024. Pointet, who is 48 years old, takes charge of the French banking group's Company Engagement Department, created in 2017 to drive BNP Paribas's action in favour of civil society and, in particular, environmental and social transitions. The announcement was made on 28 May 2024 via a press release published on the group's website.
Pointet succeeds Antoine Sire, 63, who has led the Company Engagement department and is stepping back from that operational role to become an Advisor for Impact Economy and Social Inclusion within the group.
