Societe Generale Makes Two Appointments to Management Team

Société Générale Securities Services (SGSS), the securities unit of the French bank, announced on Monday that it has appointed Mathieu Maurier as Country Head in Luxembourg and Gildas Le Treut as Head of Sales and Relationship Management.

Both Maurier and Le Treut will assume their new positions on September 1, 2018. Maurier will be based in Luxembourg. He will report to the Group Country Head, Arnaud Jacquemin and Bruno Prigent, Head of SGSS. Le Treut will replace Maurier.

Mathieu Maurier

Maurier is replacing Olivier Renault, who has taken on a new position in the multinational bank. Maurier is a seasoned employee at Société Générale, having worked with the firm since 1994. Originally he joined the bank as Account Manager and he has since held positions such as Managing Director for the bank’s South African branch and most recently Global Head of Sales and Relationship Management.

In 2008, Maurier worked at Rosbank, a Russian universal bank until 2011. This followed the acquisition of the Russian bank by Société Générale. According to his LinkedIn, Maurier was the first expatriate to be deployed by the group after the acquisition to lead Business Development in the Securities Services Department.

Gildas Le Treut

Le Treut, who is the current Managing Director of Coverage, will be based in Paris. Le Treut has only worked at the French bank since May this year. In his new role, he will report to Christophe Baurand the Head of Coverage, Marketing and Solutions for SGSS.

Before working at SGSS, Le Treut was the Global Director of Prime Clearing at ABN AMRO Clearing Bank for almost four years. Before this, he also held the position of Head of Product & Network Management from 2010 to 2014 with the bank.

Here he managed teams that covered Forex Clearing, Energy and Commodities Clearing, Equity Clearing and Settlement, OTC Derivatives Clearing and Managed Futures. During his career, Le Treut has also held positions at BNP Paribas.
