World-renowned ocean conservationist Clément Perrette has participated in various meaningful philanthropic efforts, and continues to leverage his extensive professional experience to raise funds for his passionate cause. Driven by the desire to raise awareness of the vast atrocities being committed globally, which include dwindling marine life populations, increased ocean pollution, and the poaching of various crucial species, Perrette devotes significant effort to achieving substantial change.
Early Life
Perrette excelled academically throughout his formative years, and earned his Bachelor's degree from Académie Versailles in 1983. He subsequently earned a Civil Engineering degree, specializing in applied mathematics and computer science, in 1989. Perrette completed his formal education with a Master of Finance degree from the prestigious HEC Paris in 1990. As a highly qualified candidate, Perrette immediately secured a coveted role at New York City's Worms & Cie. After gaining valuable experience, Perrette went on to work for Deutsche Bank Paris, and Barclays Capital. In these roles, he developed and maintained a successful STRIPs program throughout Europe. His extensive work at Barclays capitalized on his skills to elevate the company's profile as a global leader in franchise rates, STRIPs, EUR long-end government bonds, and EUR swaps.
Career
Perrette successfully led the program at Deutsche Bank Paris, leading the institution to achieve top customer franchise status from June 2000 to June 2002.
From 2002 to 2013, Perrette held meaningful leadership positions at Barclays Capital London. Initially appointed Head of EUR Long End Rates trading, Perrette's responsibilities expanded to Managing Director and Head of the EUR Rates trading team. During his tenure, Perrette significantly contributed to making Barclays Capital the number one franchise house for STRIPS, EUR government bonds, and EUR swaps.
After many years in the financial sector, Perrette transitioned into asset management with RAM Active Investments. He currently serves as a Senior Portfolio Manager and Managing Director, utilizing his expertise to foster sustained financial growth for the company.
Personal Life
As a co-producer of the 2018 release "Call of the Blue", Perrette collaborated with over fifty scientists and biologists to develop informative content for the book. Combined with stunning photographs showcasing life in the ocean's depths, "Call of the Blue" aimed to educate the public and inspire action to support ocean conservation. Working alongside ocean photographer and philanthropist Philip Hamilton, Perrette's project has been well-received, and a second edition is being considered.
Perrette has also collaborated with Philip Hamilton and a dedicated team on the film "Ocean Souls" as an Executive Producer. This film explores the intellectual capacities of whales and dolphins, examining their complex interactions and social attributes similar to humans. By establishing this parallel in an aesthetically beautiful way, the team behind "Ocean Souls" aims to increase educational efforts, foster empathy for these creatures, and promote action to stop the poaching of whales and dolphins.
Partnering with Uproar Global Media, a digital media company focused on creating engaging media for conservation, Perrette has joined the company's non-executive Board of Directors. Uproar Global Media works closely with its sister non-profit organization, The Uproar Fund, to connect modern digital media with successful conservation efforts.
Throughout his philanthropic work, Perrette leverages his extensive network of professional contacts and the skills honed over twenty-five years of leadership in the financial sector. His master's degree in Finance from HEC Paris included notable success in implementing STRIPs across Europe. His experience with global companies like Worms & Cie, Deutsche Bank Paris, and Barclays Capital has given him significant insight into the financial sector.
