Beaufort is responsible for managing the bank's overall activities in Korea. He reports to Paul Yang, CEO of BNP Paribas in Asia-Pacific.

"BNP Paribas is committed to growing its business and footprint in South Korea, supporting our Korean corporate and institutional clients' strategies. Under Philippe's leadership in the past seven and a half years, BNP Paribas accelerated the strategic expansion of its Korean business considerably, supporting our clients growing locally and abroad," Yang said.

"BNP Paribas also made significant strides in ESG financing to support in the transition of the South Korean economy ― an ongoing trend that we will continue to see in the New Year. Armed with a wealth of experience in the corporate and institutional banking industry, I have every confidence in Aymar's ability to further strengthen our business in Korea by supporting the needs of our Korean and international clients."

Beaufort previously headed the bank's operation in India. As a 30-year BNP Paribas veteran, he has held senior management roles including leadership in diverse countries such as Vietnam, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, Hungary and southeastern Europe.
