Olivier Renard leaves DWS Investments
Olivier Renard, who was head of the Paris office of DWS Investments, has left the Deutsche Bank group to pursue “other opportunities,” a statement says. He will be replaced by Philippe Goettmann, who has been appointed as head of sales for France and Monaco, from 1 April. Goettmann, a Frenchman, had been head of the distribution department at DWS in Belgium since 2007, and was also one of the top directors of distribution for DWS in Luxembourg. He was previously head of institutional sales at Evli Bank, from 2005 to 2006. He was also deputy director of the Business Development department at ING Luxembourg for four years (from 2001 to 2005), and was in charge of the legal service at Société Générale Bank & Trust in Luxembourg from 1996 to 2000. “Philippe Goettmann allowed us to accelerate our development on the Belgian market. I am certain that his international professional experience and his expert knowledge of client relationship management will allow us to achieve our ambitious objectives in France, one of our key markets in Europe,” Marnix van den Berge, head of distribution for northern Europe at DWS, says in a statement.
