EURAZEO’S SUPERVISORY BOARD APPOINTS CHRISTOPHE BAVIÈRE AS CHAIRMAN OF THE EXECUTIVE BOARD AND CEO

Paris, 26 October 2026

The Supervisory Board of Eurazeo has decided, on the recommendation of the Compensation, Appointment and Governance Committee, to evolve the governance around Christophe Bavière, appointed sole Chairman of the Executive Board and CEO with immediate effect, ahead of the expiry of the current mandates on 5 February 2027.

Eurazeo has been deeply transformed over the last four years under the leadership of the current Executive Board, which has built a leading asset manager in Europe: a 30% increase in third-party assets under management, which now represent close to 80% of the Group’s assets; fundraising that is now 70% international; and an FRE margin up from 30.7% in 2022 to 36% in 2025. This new governance must enable the Group to accelerate further in a market undergoing profound evolution.

The Supervisory Board will determine the composition of the future Executive Board, chaired by Christophe Bavière, at the end of the current mandates, with its ambition undiminished: to make Eurazeo a leading European asset manager.

Jean-Charles Decaux, Chairman of the Supervisory Board, said:

“Almost four years ago, the Supervisory Board gave the Executive Board a clear mandate: build a diversified, leading asset management platform in Europe. On behalf of the Supervisory Board, I would like to thank the Company’s current Executive Board for the work accomplished and its contribution to Eurazeo’s success, and to pay particular tribute to the commitment of Mr William Kadouch-Chassaing since 2023. Eurazeo today has solid foundations: the Group must now accelerate to continue gaining market share in a more demanding environment. That is why the Supervisory Board has entrusted Mr Christophe Bavière with the sole chairmanship of the Executive Board, with the mission of preparing the new governance organisation that will enable us to reach this next step. We assure him of our full confidence in carrying out this mission at the head of the Company.“
