Customer focus is a really important value to me and I know we share it. »

“The world of financial products is dark for most of us. Having worked for a long time in the asset management industry, it seemed natural to me to accompany Alpha & K in this adventure of truly transparent and independent financial advice.

I was particularly sensitive to the fact that Julien and Philippe included financial education modules in their offer, highlighting the psychological biases that influence our investment choices. »
