“The Nordics is a strategic region for BNP Paribas. We have made big investments in many of our business areas the last 18 months. In our objective of becoming the Number 1 Global European bank for our Nordic clients, it is crucial that we grow our presence also with the Nordic investor community. I’m convinced that Jonas experience and energy will further build and deepen our relationships with this highly sophisticated client base.
