Paul Rattier

Paul Rattier is a French financial-services executive best known for his leadership at Kepler Cheuvreux, the independent European equities and financial-services firm. He joined the company's governing bodies as a director in March 2017, and over the following years rose through its executive ranks — serving as Directeur général délégué (deputy/managing director) and a member of the directoire (management board), before becoming Directeur Général (CEO), a role he held alongside Philippe Baboulin while founder Laurent Quirin chaired the supervisory board.

During this period he also held director-general roles across Kepler Cheuvreux group entities, including Kepler Cheuvreux Horizon (appointed August 2021) and Kepler Cheuvreux 360. He departed as Directeur Général and management-board member in April 2022 (with his resignation recorded effective June 30, 2022), when Fabien Bijotat was appointed to the Directoire and as Director General. In firm communications he was associated with strategic milestones such as Kepler Cheuvreux's long-running partnership with Rabobank and its flagship research and strategy events.

According to his own LinkedIn profile, Rattier is now based in Geneva and positions himself as a Group CFO and executive board member with experience spanning large corporates and the fintech sector. He was educated at KEDGE Business School.

Since leaving Kepler Cheuvreux, he has been publicly engaged with the fintech ecosystem, notably amplifying news from iLex, a next-generation loan-distribution platform digitalizing primary and secondary syndicated loan markets. He is not listed on iLex's leadership team, so his relationship appears to be advisory, investor, or network-based rather than an operating role.

• Angle rooted in capital markets and financial-services expertise — a career spanning brokerage, research, execution and corporate finance at Kepler Cheuvreux.
• Apparent interest in fintech modernizing capital markets infrastructure, especially the digitalization of loan and credit markets (consistent with his public engagement around iLex).
• Positioned as an individual/angel-type investor at early (seed) stages per the provided classification; publicly documented, named angel checks are limited, so specifics on check size and mandate could not be independently confirmed.
• *No first-person, publicly quoted investment thesis statement was found; the above is inferred from his career and public activity.*
