Bamboo Capital Partners appoints CEO

Bamboo Capital Partners has appointed impact investing and asset management executive David Grimaud as its new chief executive officer.

Previously Grimaud was CEO of Symbiotics Asset Management, following roles at Amundi, Société Générale and Crédit Agricole.

The appointment comes after Bamboo was acquired by global impact firm Palladium earlier this year. Bamboo and Palladium first entered a strategic partnership in September 2020, when Palladium took a minority stake in Bamboo.

After sixteen years with the company, Bamboo founder Jean-Philippe de Schrevel is stepping away from the business.
