François Codet, Chairman of the management board at Caisse d’Epargne Côte d’Azur, is appointed member of Natixis’ senior management committee in charge of insurance. François Codet will take up his role in February 2021 and will be in charge of all personal insurance and non-life insurance businesses at Natixis. He succeeds Jean-François Lequoy, who was appointed Deputy Chief Executive Officer of Groupe BPCE, in charge of Finance and Strategy in September 2020.

Nicolas Namias, CEO of Natixis, said: “I am absolutely delighted to welcome François Codet to the Natixis senior management committee. His extensive insight into the financial and commercial challenges facing Groupe BPCE’s business lines, as well as his discipline and vast experience in the group will be crucial advantages in rolling out the next stage in Natixis Assurances’ development along with all our teams and preparing for Natixis’ forthcoming strategic plan, all in the interests of Groupe BPCE’s retail network customers. I would like to wholeheartedly thank Jean-François Lequoy for his commitment and all his work, which supported the group’s development into a fully-fledged bancassurer.”
