It will now also offer an on-the-ground Research service.
Philippe has been with the Bank for over 15 years, starting in Dubai as an economist covering the Middle East and Turkey, before moving to the Bank’s London HQ. He holds a Bachelor’s and a Master’s from University of Paris, Dauphine, a Master’s from Sciences-Po Paris and a Master’s from Columbia University in New York. He was recognised as one of the “Most Helpful Analysts in Emerging Markets” in 2021 by S&P’s Coalition Greenwich, a reference survey in the industry.
Caroline Eber-Ittel, CEO France and Head of Client Coverage France & Southern Europe at Standard Chartered said: “Philippe brings extensive knowledge and expertise that strengthens our on-the-ground offering in France and more widely, Europe. We’re committed to growing our presence in Europe, to better serve our strategic and evolving European client base and supporting our clients as they navigate today’s current economic and geopolitical uncertainties.”
