Who are we?

Based in Paris, BNP Paribas' Economic Research Department is composed of economists and statisticians:

The OECD Economics team, in charge of macroeconomic and financial forecasts, and the team of statisticians, both headed by Hélène Baudchon.
The Emerging Economies and Country Risk team, led by François Faure and assisted by Christine Peltier, responsible for assessing country risk and its components.
The Banking Economics team, led by Laurent Quignon, studies the banking systems of major developed countries and the impact of prudential standards.
