Macquarie Asset Management has hired Thibault Sauvage as managing director and EMEA head of specialised infrastructure debt, according to a report by eFinancialCareers. Sauvage joins from Canadian pension fund CDPQ, where he was a senior director.
He moved to CDPQ in 2022 and before that spent 12 years in banking across HSBC and UBS, most recently as a director and portfolio manager on UBS’s Archmore infrastructure debt platform.
The appointment comes as Macquarie completes the $1.8bn sale of its public asset management businesses to Nomura. MAM chief Ben Way said the deal will allow the group to increase its focus on private markets.
