The appointment follows the decision from Christophe Hémon to step down as CEO of LCH SA, having been in office since 2004.

Ms Poilvet-Clédière has over 15 years’ experience working in financial markets. She is currently Head of RepoClear and Collateral Management, LCH SA, where she is responsible for the euro-denominated debt and repo clearing service, RepoClear, as well as the clearing house’s collateral management function. Prior to this role, she was Global Head of Regulatory Strategy at LSEG where she played a central role engaging on a wide range of strategic policy issues, particularly in Post Trade. Prior to this, Ms Poilvet-Clédière was part of the team involved in the launch of CDSClear as Governance Manager at LCH SA.

In addition, she has experience working for EY Financial Services, as well as BNP Paribas in New York.

Corentine Poilvet-Clédière said:

“I’m honoured to be leading LCH SA, and I look forward to working with the team in Paris and the wider LSEG Post Trade team to deliver more innovation and efficiencies to our customers and the markets we serve. Having spent many years at LSEG, I know the key role that LCH plays in providing resilient and systemically important risk management services to global customers across asset classes. I look forward to building on the excellent foundations laid under Christophe’s leadership and lead LCH SA through its next stage of growth.”
