Jean Lemierre (born 6 June 1950) is a French former public servant who was the president of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development from 2000 to 2008. He is now chairman of BNP Paribas.[1][2][3]

Career

[edit]

Public sector

[edit]

In 2000, Lemierre was elected as the new chief of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), succeeding Horst Köhler. During his time in office, he warned Russia to stop Yukos-style expropriations from spreading.[4]

In 2004, the French government nominated Lemierre as candidate to head the International Monetary Fund (IMF); the post went to Rodrigo Rato instead.[5] From 2005 until 2008, he served on the advisory board of the Commission on Legal Empowerment of the Poor.

Private sector

[edit]

Following his departure from EBRD, Lemierre joined BNP Paribas as an adviser.

In 2011, Lemierre (alongside Charles Dallara) was co-head of the bondholders’ committee that renegotiated €200 billion of Greek bonds with the government in a high-stakes deal that staved off the country's collapse.[6]

Lemierre was the bank's key negotiator in the record $8.9 billion fine it paid in 2014 for violating U.S. sanctions on Sudan, Libya and Cuba between 2002 and 2012.[7] In 2014, he was appointed chairman of the board of directors.[8]
