The Team
Vincent Auriac
President
His insights
A graduate of the ISC in Finance and EOR from the École Supérieure Militaire de Saint-Cyr, he joined the management company Apogé in 1999, before becoming Director of Management. In 2004, he co-founded Axylia Conseil, which became SAS Axylia in 2013.
The 2008 crisis reinforces his intuition: responsible finance is the future of finance and not a “niche” approach. He is therefore committed to promoting and developing it, in particular through an innovative event policy, with the Responsible Finance Workshops which, from 2007 to 2017, welcomed more than 1,000 participants.
Vincent Auriac is at the origin of the concept of altruistic finance, [profit for Non Profit] Awards , or the creation of sharing and Socially Responsible Investment (SRI) funds, the model he defends with associations and foundations.
Vincent Auriac is also a member of the Remarkable Initiatives strategic committee of the Initiative France network, chaired by Louis Schweitzer.
