After 25 years at AXA, Nicolas Moreau has decided to leave the insurance group, effective June 30th, 2016.

AXA said his replacement will be announced shortly.

Nicolas Moreau began his career in the central finance department of the Group. He joined AXA Investment Managers in 1997, where he became chief executive officer in 2002.

In 2007, he took over the leadership of AXA’s businesses in the UK and Ireland. He returned to France in 2010 to lead AXA France.

He also oversees AXA Global Direct and AXA Partners.

Henri de Castries, chairman and CEO, AXA, said: “Nicolas has had an exemplary career at AXA, and I want to very warmly thank him for his many contributions to the success of the Group in his successive roles.

“With AXA France’s teams, he has achieved remarkable results, focusing the organization on improving the quality of service to our clients and investing in its transformation. He has also been instrumental in the development of our ecosystem of innovation. Many of us are sad to see Nicolas leave AXA, but we understand his decision, and I know he will be very successful in his future endeavors.”

Moreau added: “I thank Henri de Castries for his trust over these 25 years, and I wish the new leadership team led by Thomas Buberl every success, together with employees, agents and partners I have had the pleasure and fortune to work with at AXA.”
