Expertise

Rédacteur en chef de mind Fintech depuis son lancement à la fin de l’année 2016, je veille à la cohérence et à la qualité de la ligne éditoriale du média. Mon expertise se concentre principalement sur l’analyse des nouveaux risques qui impactent le secteur de l’assurance, l’évolution de la finance alternative et les grands enjeux réglementaires liés à la finance numérique. Diplômé de l’Ecole de journalisme et de communication d’Aix-Marseille (EJCAM), j’ai commencé ma carrière à L’Agefi en 2005, où j’ai suivi les stratégies des acteurs de l’industrie financière.
