Professor Noël Amenc has resigned fro his role as Director of EDHEC-Risk Institute.
Amenc founded EDHEC-Risk Institute in 2001 and enabled the institute, which is part of EDHEC Business School, to become one of the leading centres for applied research for the investment industry worldwide, with a presence not only in Nice, France, but also in London and Singapore, and research and executive education partnerships with CFA Institute, Yale School of Management and Princeton University.
Amenc’s resignation is effective as of 1 August, 2015. At that date, Professor Lionel Martellini, who has been fulfilling the role of Scientific Director at EDHEC-Risk Institute, will succeed him as Director.
Amenc will continue to head up ERI Scientific Beta, the smart beta index provider set up by EDHEC-Risk Institute at the end of 2012, which becomes an entity that is autonomous from the institute.
