Ardian strengthens its Supervisory Committee

Ardian, a global private investment firm, announces the appointment of two new members to its Supervisory Committee. These appointments are made as part of the representation of Hermès and Wafra, two of the Group’s reference institutional shareholders.

Chaired by Patrick Thomas, the Supervisory Committee welcomes Mr. Eric du Halgouët, representing Hermès, a long-standing shareholder of Ardian since 2013, as well as Mr. Adel Alderbas, representing Wafra, which joined Ardian’s shareholding at the end of 2025.

Ardian’s Supervisory Committee is now composed of five members representing the reference shareholders (Patrick Thomas, Jean-Michel Verhaegen, François Morrisson, Eric du Halgouët and Adel Alderbas), two independent members (Sabine Chalmers and Rawdha Al Rumaithi), and three representatives of employee shareholders (Jennifer Ferrand, Hassina Harkati and Daryl Li). This composition is fully consistent with Ardian’s governance framework, the diversity of its shareholder base, and supports a vision firmly focused on the long term and the creation of sustainable value.

“The Supervisory Committee is delighted to welcome two new representatives. The arrival of Hermès and Wafra, through the breadth of their experience, strengthens the diversity of perspectives and the quality of strategic dialogue, in support of Ardian’s strategy.” Patrick Thomas, Chairman of the Supervisory Committee, Ardian

“I welcome these appointments, which further strengthen Ardian’s governance and prepare us for future challenges and growth, while remaining true to our entrepreneurial culture. They illustrate our ability to bring together long-term partners who share our vision and commitment.” Dominique Senequier, CEO and Founder, Ardian
