Scope of identified staff

To date, all COLIBRI AM employees are covered by this Remuneration Policy. They therefore make up the “identified personnel” concerned by this Policy. More specifically, they are :

  • Leaders, Michel CAMILLERI et Frédéric HAMM ;
  • The non-executive financial manager, Marc FRIPPIAT ;
  • The person responsible for the middle and back office and for the administrative management of the company, Axel CAMILLERI.

In accordance with the regulations, the next employees recruited could also be named “identified personnel” :

  • if they occupied key functions provided for in Article L533-22-2 of the CMF (e.g. financial manager, head of a support function, etc.), or
  • were likely to have a significant impact on the risk profile of the company or the funds managed and whose salary would be “significant” in accordance with AMF Position DOC-2013-11 (i.e. an employee whose remuneration “falls within the same remuneration bracket as senior management and identified staff”)

    Types of compensation paid by the SGP

    COLIBRI AM will not pay variable compensation.

    If it were to change this policy at a later date, it would contact the AMF beforehand.
