Paris-based new hire is set to support the firm’s expansion of its execution strategy. 

Kepler Chevreux has expanded its KCx team, with the addition of Karim Boumail as a high touch sales trader, effective May 2026. 

Based out of Paris, Boumail is set to support the firm’s development of its execution strategy, and joins a team which spans locations including Amsterdam, Dubai, Frankfurt, Geneva, London, New York and Stockholm.  

Boumail joins the firm after spending more than eight years at ODDO BHF, where he served as a European equity sales trader in Paris.
