Beschreibung

Senior Securities Financing (SFT) and Repo specialist with over 15 years of experience across Tier-1 banks and systemic clearing infrastructures, Ludovic combines deep market expertise with front-to-back transformation capability.

His expertise sits at the intersection of secured financing, liquidity management, collateral optimisation and balance sheet constraints (LCR, NSFR, leverage ratio). He brings a rare combination of trading desk execution, CCP exposure and cross-functional coordination across Front Office, Middle Office, Back Office and IT environments.

He supports financial institutions, treasury functions and market infrastructures on:

• Repo & Securities Lending platform build-outs

• Collateral, margining and clearing workflow optimisation

• Liquidity and balance sheet optimisation within ALM frameworks

• Regulatory metric integration (LCR, NSFR, RWA)

• Front-to-back transformation and system migration initiatives

Having operated both within Global Treasury functions and clearing houses, he understands the full lifecycle of Securities Financing Transactions — from execution and pricing to settlement, margining, substitutions and risk management.

He particularly focuses on high-impact initiatives where market expertise must align with operational architecture, regulatory constraints and capital efficiency.

His objective is to help institutions strengthen their secured financing infrastructure, enhance liquidity optimisation and deliver scalable, robust front-to-back processes in complex regulatory environments.
