BNP Paribas Real Estate names new board chairman

Property services firm BNP Paribas Real Estate has named deputy CEO Thierry Laroue-Pont as its new executive board chairman, replacing Philippe Zivkovic.

Zivkovic will continue to support the company’s development as chairman of the supervisory board. The changes were announced at an evening event on 16 June to mark BNP Paribas Real Estate’s 10th anniversary.

‘Having spent many years as part of the operational management team for the property business and BNP Paribas Real Estate, I wanted to take a step back, and hand over the reins to the new generation. I am very confident in Thierry Laroue-Pont and the executive board’s ability to continue developing BNP Paribas Real Estate,’ Zivkovic said.

Zivkovic and Laroue-Pont will take up their new positions on 1 July this year.

Laroue-Pont will be supported by three deputy CEOs who are members of the executive board: Barbara Koréniouguine, Henri Faure and Lauric Leclerc.
