This appointment, reviewed by the Governance and Sustainability Committee, was approved by the members of the Supervisory Board at their meeting held earlier today and takes effect immediately.
With a career spanning more than 40 years across the banking and broader financial sector, public administration and corporate governance, Xavier Musca brings to Tikehau Capital a wealth of strategic expertise and a deep understanding of global economic challenges.

Xavier Musca is a graduate of the Institut d'Études Politiques de Paris (Sciences Po) and a former student of the École nationale d'administration (ENA). He began his career at the Inspectorate General of Finance in 1985, before joining the French Treasury Department in 1989. In 1993, he was appointed to the office of Prime Minister Édouard Balladur and returned to the Treasury in 1995, where he became Director in 2004. In this role, he chaired the Paris Club and the Economic and Financial Committee of the European Union, which brings together the Treasury Directors of EU member states. In 2009, he joined the Presidency of the French Republic as Deputy Secretary General in charge of Economic Affairs and in 2011 was appointed Secretary General of the French President. In 2012, he joined the Crédit Agricole S.A. Group as Deputy Chief Executive Officer and from September 2022 served as Chief Executive Officer of Crédit Agricole CIB.
In his new role, Xavier Musca will support Tikehau Capital in pursuing its strategic development in France and internationally, in the service of its clients and shareholders.
Christian de Labriffe has played a key role in Tikehau Capital's growth and transformation over the past 12 years. The Group and the members of its Supervisory Board express their deep gratitude for his unwavering commitment and the decisive impact he has had on the Group's development and governance. He began his career at Lazard Frères Cie in 1972 and was appointed Managing Partner in 1987. In 1994, he joined Rothschild Cie as Managing Partner, and in 2013, became Chairman and CEO of Salvepar, a listed investment company that became a subsidiary of Tikehau Capital in 2012.
