About Dominique Carrel-Billiard

Dominique Carrel-Billiard holds a prominent leadership position at Amundi in real and alternative assets, a business area that includes real estate, private debt, private equity and infrastructure. He is currently identified as the global head of this platform, which sits at the center of Amundi’s strategy to expand into private markets and diversify client portfolios over the long term. In this role, he oversees a fast-growing business line that has become one of the group’s key engines of development, especially for institutional investors and other clients seeking long-duration, less liquid investment solutions. Before joining Amundi in 2016, he served as Managing Director and then Chief Executive Officer of La Financière de l’Échiquier from 2014 to 2016. That experience strengthened his profile as an asset-management executive with a blend of investment culture, team leadership and commercial development capabilities. At Amundi, his responsibilities expanded over time, and in 2020 he was given operational leadership of the real and alternative assets business line. Company communications indicate that he played a role in scaling this activity to a substantial asset base and in supporting strategic moves such as the acquisition of Alpha Associates, which was intended to accelerate Amundi’s development in the fast-growing multi-management segment of private assets. His expertise lies in designing long-term investment strategies, building international platforms and delivering solutions that address diversification, return objectives and real-economy financing needs. In Amundi’s corporate materials, he is regularly presented as a key executive for “real assets and alternatives”, underscoring his role at the intersection of asset allocation, private-markets growth and client solution design. His public profile also notes education at Harvard Business School, which complements a career focused on senior leadership in European asset management.
