Launch of operations in Switzerland and expansion of the M&A team

Carmine Capital accelerates its development plan with the launch of its activities in Switzerland and by welcoming Benoît Galliou to reinforce its team of experts and support its growth.  

To further support its growth, Carmine Capital is strengthening its team with the arrival of a new business manager, thus confirming its ambition to become the reference merchant bank in France and in Europe for SMEs, their managers, and their shareholders.

Graduated from the SKEMA Business School’s Grande École programme, Benoît began his career in M&A in 2018 at ACTICAM, a subsidiary of Crédit Agricole specialising in supporting SMEs and SMIs in the Greater West region of France. He then gained valuable experience at the investment bank Capival where he worked with Antoine Vintzel, who has since become a Director at Carmine Capital in charge of the expertise division. In 2020, Benoît joined the Corporate & Investment Bank department of Delubac & Cie before joining Carmine Capital in November 2021 as a Business Manager.

Anne-Laure Beuriot, Founding Partner of Carmine Capital, declared: “We are delighted to enhance our expertise with the arrival of Benoît Galliou. The year 2021 was quite intense and the months to come are going to be very exciting thanks to our successful set-ups in the French regions and Overseas as well as some very interesting opportunities in Switzerland! Our team puts into practice on a daily basis what motivated the creation of Carmine in 2013: putting people at the heart of M&A transactions.”

Carmine Capital is taking advantage of this new recruitment to expand its offices. The Paris team is now located on the other side of the Place de la Madeleine on Rue Pasquier. The team is still backed by Stéphane Carnenac, Etienne Barbry, and Sandrine Moreau, respectively in charge of developing the Occitania, Hauts-de-France, and Pays de La Loire regions.
