The latest moves, appointments and changes around wealth management senior roles in UK, continental Europe, Middle East, and select international locations.

Tikehau Capital
Paris-based, global alternative asset management group, Tikehau Capital, has appointed Margaux Buridant and Célia Hamoum as co-heads of Private Wealth Solutions (PWS), the group’s specialised entity dedicated to family offices and high net worth individuals.

These appointments underscore Tikehau Capital’s commitment to enhancing its offer for private investors, who are increasingly seeking access to private funds, the firm said in a statement.

In 2021, Tikehau Capital established PWS within its sales and marketing division to improve direct access to group funds for family offices and high net worth individuals worldwide, a client segment it saw as more likely to increase its allocation to alternative assets.

Buridant, who will be based in New York, has 15 years of wealth management experience. She specialises in offering high-end private clients investment advisory services and portfolio management. Her remit is to develop and structure PWS and oversee the existing team to expand Tikehau Capital's global business with entrepreneurs, HNW individuals, family offices, and North American private banks.

Prior to joining Tikehau Capital, Buridant served at Bank of the West, BNP Paribas and, more recently, BMO in New York as a senior international wealth strategist and wealth management regional manager. Before that, she began her career as a notary in France, later moving to legal services as a managing director at Colombus Consulting Group NY. Buridant holds a master’s degree in business and law and a notaire diploma from Aix-en-Provence University, as well as a US International Tax certification from New York University.

Paris-based Hamoum, who started her career with Tikehau Capital in 2015, has been instrumental in expanding the firm's Private Wealth offering. Initially, she spent six years in the sales distribution team as a sales representative dealing with independent financial advisors, banks, and asset managers. In 2021, she moved to the PWS team, where she concentrated on serving private clients and family offices in France, Belgium, and Luxembourg. Hamoun holds a bachelor's degree in finance from EDHEC Business School and a master's in portfolio management from IAE Paris-Est.
