Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank appointed Gerard Vincitore head of structured finance advisory in New York, effective May 2.

Vincitore will report globally to Matthew Norman, global head of energy & infrastructure group advisory, and locally to Olivier Audemard, head of structured finance for the Americas.

Vincitore joined Crédit Agricole CIB in 2016 to spearhead the North American structured finance advisory group. In that position, he was responsible for leading Crédit Agricole CIB’s advisory services in the region, with an emphasis on the power and utilities sector. Previously, he was a financial executive for the New York Power Authority (NYPA), the largest state public power utility, primarily focused on corporate financial management and business development. Prior to NYPA, he worked at Natixis Corporate & Investment Bank as a project finance banker in the energy and infrastructure group.

“I am delighted to confirm the nomination of Gerard to lead our structured finance advisory team in New York,” Audemard said. “He will play a key role leading and developing this strategic activity with our clients and sponsors in North and Latin America.”
