Kouadio Désiré Martial Aguessi

Kouadio Désiré Martial Aguessi is a London-based quantitative finance professional and an alum of Télécom SudParis (Diplôme d'Ingénieur, 2018) in Mathematics, Modeling and Applied Statistics. He represented Ivory Coast at the International Mathematical Olympiad 2012, earning an Honourable Mention. His work history is entirely in quantitative risk: a Quantitative Credit Risk internship and then analyst role at BNP Paribas Corporate & Institutional Banking (Paris, 2018-2020), Market and Counterparty Risk Analyst at Societe Generale CIB (Paris, 2020-2023), and Senior Quantitative Analyst at EY (London, 2023-present). He holds CFA Level I and has completed machine-learning-for-trading coursework. Primary evidence for these roles is his LinkedIn profile as surfaced through index/aggregator data, not a primary employer page.

Notes2

• Quant employment verification: CONFIRMED. The employment record shows actual work roles and an internship, not student programs: Quantitative Credit Risk intern at BNP Paribas Corporate & Institutional Banking (Paris, Mar-Sep 2018); Quantitative Credit Risk Analyst at BNP Paribas CIB (Paris, 2018-2020); Market and Counterparty Risk Analyst at Societe Generale Corporate & Investment Banking (Paris, 2020-2023); and Senior Quantitative Analyst at EY (London, Oct 2023-present). Employer classification: all three are established financial institutions that operate in quantitative finance -- BNP Paribas CIB and Societe Generale CIB run credit/market/counterparty risk and xVA/FRTB model desks, and EY's quantitative practice delivers quantitative risk and valuation work -- so none is merely a name containing 'quant'. Identity support: the LinkedIn profile (martial-aguessi) carries the Ivorian secondary education (Lycee Scientifique de Yamoussoukro, 2008-2013) consistent with the IMO 2012 Ivory Coast contestant of the same rare combined name. Caveat: every role here is sourced from LinkedIn as surfaced through index/aggregator data (corroborated by a second aggregator); no primary employer page was read, so this is employment evidence at the index/aggregator tier, not independent primary-source confirmation. No front-office systematic-trading, market-making, or hedge-fund employer appears in the record; the roles are quantitative-risk rather than trading.
• An aggregator shows a masked email at the domain '@ey.co.il', which belongs to EY Israel; given his role is at EY UK/London, that domain is implausible and is treated as unreliable aggregator data rather than a verified contact.
• No GitHub account or personal website could be linked to this person; searches for a GitHub profile returned only an unrelated organization (Auquan) follower page, and the LinkedIn profile lists no site or code handle. His technical work is therefore documented only through the profile, not a public code surface.
