London, UK, April 5th, 2019: ReachX, an emerging financial platform looking to transform wholesale banking and research in a post-MiFID II environment, is pleased to announce that Matthieu Gervis who has joined the company as Chief Commercial Officer, will also serve on its Board of Directors. Prior to joining ReachX, Matthieu brings over 20 years of experience at Goldman Sachs and Merrill Lynch where he has advised leading institutional investors.
Recently he was Head of Business Development for Poincare Capital, a Hong Kong-based global equity long/short investment manager. Matthieu graduated with an MBA from New York University, Stern School of Business and a BA in European Business Administration from Neoma Business School.
Commenting on Matthieu’s appointment, Rafael S. Lajeunesse, CEO and co-founder of ReachX, said: “Matthieu brings a wealth of experience in client development and will build partnerships and long term relations across the investment management space. He brings great leadership skills and will complement the management team as we develop in the UK, Europe and China.”
Matthieu noted: “I am very excited to join the ReachX team to offer to our clients a new way of accessing on-demand investment banking services with greater transparency and cost-efficiency.”
The appointment follows ReachX’s commercial launch and completion of accreditation with the UK Financial Conduct Authority (Services Register number: 811226) over Q4 2018, and the launch of its research marketplace with leading global insight firms.
The company is working to shake-up traditional financial market research and investment banking services via its technology enabled platform that connects independent industry and finance professionals with corporations and institutional investors. At present, ReachX professionals include top rated analysts, economists, researchers, corporate finance, capital markets and investor relations specialists, who provide advice and insight without conflict of interest for financial firms and corporations.
Concurrently, ReachX publishes bespoke global market focussed content, analysis, research, podcasts and videos on unique investment opportunities via its portal. The company continues to organise closed door industry events and market webcasts, and is also launching AI driven research to cover equities with limited coverage in Europe. The platform was founded in December 2017 by Rafael S. Lajeunesse and Olivier Beau de Loménie. The idea was born out of creating an unbiased research, information and services hub fit for a post-MiFID II investment and operating environment.
