ONE group solutions (ONE) is pleased to announce the appointment of Arnaud Bouteiller as Managing Director with immediate effect. He will work alongside the existing leadership team during a planned transition period before assuming the role of Head of ManCo and AIFM on 1 January 2027.
Arnaud will succeed Lydie Bini, who will retire at the end of 2026. As one of ONE’s foundational team members, Lydie has helped build and lead the firm’s fund management business since its establishment in 2019, shaping its operating model, client proposition and culture. Arnaud will work alongside Lydie through a planned transition period, providing continuity for clients, teams and governance arrangements.
In his new role, Arnaud will lead the continued development of ONE’s independent Management Company and AIFM proposition for UCITS and alternative investment funds, encompassing independent risk management, valuation oversight and investment compliance monitoring. He will also support the development of the firm’s portfolio management and marketing capabilities and contribute more broadly to the Group’s ambitious next phase of growth.
Arnaud brings close to two decades of experience in asset servicing and asset management spanning fund servicing and governance, portfolio and risk management and business development. Most recently, he was Managing Director at Mirabaud Asset Management in Luxembourg and France.
Earlier in his career, Arnaud was a Partner and General Manager of a third-partymanagement company and AIFM, where he spent 15 years helping build the business before its successful sale in 2021.
The appointment forms part of ONE’s continued investment in experienced leadership as the firm prepares for its next phase of growth. Alongside strengthening its senior team, ONE plans to accelerate investment in technology, data and AI to enhance its operating capabilities and the service delivered to clients across international markets.
Steve Bernat, co-founder and Group Chief Executive of ONE, said: “Arnaud combines deep fund management expertise with the operational perspective needed to lead the business through its next stage of development. His appointment reflects our commitment to investing in experienced people as we grow, while advancing our technology and data capabilities to support our teams and deliver greater value to clients. Our Net Promoter Score of 38¹ reflects the strong foundation of client trust on which we continue to build.”
“Just as importantly, this is a carefully planned succession. Lydie was one of the central figures in ONE’s development from the outset and has been instrumental in establishing our fund management business, shaping its culture and earning the trust of our clients. I am deeply grateful for her leadership and contribution. Arnaud and Lydie will work closely together to ensure continuity and prepare the business for its next phase of responsible growth.”
Commenting on his appointment, Arnaud Bouteiller added: “I am very pleased to be returning to the asset servicing industry, a dynamic market with significant opportunities. ONE has already built an impressive business, driven by the vision of its founders and the expertise and commitment of its teams. Its ambitions for the future, strong technology capabilities and agile approach make this a particularly exciting time to join. I look forward to contributing to the Group’s next phase of growth.”
