Early life and career

After graduating from the University of Toulouse (France) in 1972 with a master's degree in chemical engineering, he received a Fulbright Scholarship to study economics and finance at New York University where he was awarded a PhD in 1977 and appointed to the faculty of NYU Stern School of Business as an Assistant Professor of Finance. In 1980 he moved to Baruch College of the City University of New York as an Associate Professor before joining INSEAD in 1982 as a Full Professor. At INSEAD he first chaired and built up the Finance Area (1985-1987) then directed the institution’s Euro-Asia Center (1988-1994) where he developed the school’s executive education activities in Asia. In 1998 he led INSEAD’s development campaign, launched in 1995, that raised over €100 million by early 2000. In August of that year he was appointed dean of INSEAD. During his tenure (2000-2006) he led the institute’s global expansion with the opening of campuses in Singapore and Abu Dhabi, launched the INSEAD Executive MBA Program, and led INSEAD’s second development campaign that raised €120 million. He was awarded the Legion of Honor in 2005, France's highest order of merit, and received in 2006 The Chief Executive Leadership Award from The Council for Advancement and Support of Education. His publications are in the areas of risk estimation and valuation in financial markets, the theory of the firm under uncertainty, the process of business value creation, and the internationalization of higher education institutions.
