| BIL Unveils Independent AIF Depositary Strategy Led by Newly Appointed Industry Experts | https://www.bil.com/fr/groupe-bil/pressroom/news/Pages/bil-unveils-independent-aif-depositary-strategy-led-by-newly-appointed-industry-experts.aspx | BIL Unveils Independent AIF Depositary Strategy Led by Newly Appointed Industry Experts | | <p>Banque Internationale à Luxembourg (BIL), one of Luxembourg’s leading financial institutions, announces a strategic repositioning of its services for Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs). Following the recent separation of its former AIFM and Central Administration service activities, the Bank is reaffirming its commitment to delivering AIF Depositary and banking solutions dedicated to AIFs and their fund managers.</p>
<p>This repositioning sends a strong signal to the market: a renowned Luxembourg bank is now offering AIF Depositary services on a fully independent, non-competing basis, strengthening the ecosystem with a stable and neutral partner for alternative investment structures.</p>
<p>BIL’s repositioning centers on three core pillars:</p>
<h2>1. Independent AIF Depositary & Banking Services</h2>
<p>BIL will provide fully independent AIF Depositary services to Alternative Investment Funds, complemented by banking solutions tailored to the operational, transactional, and treasury needs of alternative structures. The Bank will also deliver independent services to AIF managers and pursue collaborations with AIFMs and asset servicers on a strictly non-competing basis, reinforcing its role as a neutral and reliable industry partner.</p>
<h2>2. Senior Industry Leadership</h2>
<p>To drive this strategic directory, BIL has appointed two senior fund-industry professionals to lead and expand its AIF Depositary offering:</p>
<ul class="list-normal">
<li>Ms <b>Florence Alexandre</b>, Head of AIF Depositary<br><img src="/PublishingImages/site-groupebil/news/FlorenceAlexandre.jpg" class="imgnewstory" style="max-width:330px;margin:20px;border-radius:20px;"></li>
<li>Mr <b>Philippe Lanciers</b>, Senior Business Development Manager, AIF Depositary<br><img src="/PublishingImages/site-groupebil/news/PhilippeLanciers.jpg" class="imgnewstory" style="max-width:330px;margin:20px;border-radius:20px;"></li>
</ul>
<p>Their extensive experience in depositary oversight, alternative assets classes, client engagement and governance frameworks, strengthens BIL’s ability to deliver best-in-class services. Together, they will guide the Bank’s next phase of growth in the alternative investment space.</p>
<h3>3. Technology & Market Engagement</h3>
<p>The repositioning is further enabled by the deployment of integrated technology solutions designed to enhance efficiency, transparency, and reporting accuracy for clients and partners. In parallel, BIL will implement a targeted engagement plan, including participation in key industry events and the roll-out of thought-leadership initiatives across the alternative investment community.</p>
<p>With its strong banking heritage, financial stability and renewed strategic clarity, BIL positions itself as a trusted, independent partner for AIFs, AIFMs, and asset servicers seeking long-term alignment, sector expertise, and non-competing collaboration.</p>
<p>The move marks a new chapter for BIL, one rooted in independence, partnership, and a reinforced commitment to Luxembourg’s alternative investment ecosystem.</p> | 04/03/2026 14:00:00 | FR | The Bank strengthens its role as a neutral partner for alternative investment structures with strategic repositioning and expanded leadership. | | |

It is a simple concept with meaningful impact: plant a tree, inspire others, and contribute to the country’s green coverage, one gesture at a time.
At the end of 2025, <b>Jeffrey Dentzer</b>, BIL’s CEO, took part in the challenge, demonstrating the Bank’s commitment to sustainability and collective responsibility. This act of leadership set the tone for what BIL stand for: taking concrete steps today to build a better tomorrow.</p>

<p>Now, as the weather turns milder and conditions once again become favourable for planting, we are excited to carry the challenge forward.</p>
<h2>Creating Space for Sustainability</h2>
<p>BIL’s nominees did not have the space to plant their trees. Rather than letting this hinder participation, the challenge was transformed into an opportunity.</p>
<p>BIL offered nominees - <b>Julie Becker</b> (CEO Luxembourg Stock Exchange), <b>Michel Knepper</b> (President Comité Olympique et Sportif Luxembourgeois) and <b>Laurent Loschetter</b> (DSL Data Service Luxembourg) - the choice to plant their trees in the park surrounding its headquarters in Hollerich, in Luxembourg , a green space that offers the right environment for long-term growth. These trees have been placed in carefully selected locations to ensure they can thrive sustainably for years to come.</p>
<p>This initiative perfectly reflects the spirit of <b>Building Tomorrow Together</b>: supporting each other, fostering community values, and creating a positive impact that extends beyond our walls.</p>
<h2>Keeping the Movement Growing</h2>
<p>With spring offering the ideal window for planting, BIL invites everyone who has been nominated and those who simply feel inspired to join in and contribute to this growing forest of goodwill.</p>

| La BIL présente l’exposition Where the Light Goes Quiet de l’artiste luxembourgeoise Monique Becker | https://www.bil.com/fr/groupe-bil/pressroom/news/Pages/bil-presente-lexposition-where-the-light-goes-quiet-de-lartiste-luxembourgeoise-monique-becker.aspx | La BIL présente l’exposition Where the Light Goes Quiet de l’artiste luxembourgeoise Monique Becker | | <h2>Une exploration du noir comme présence</h2>
<p>L’exposition rassemble un ensemble d’œuvres qui témoignent de l’évolution d’une pratique artistique façonnée par la recherche de la profondeur, de la matière et de l’émotion. Le titre, <i>Where the Light Goes Quiet</i>, reflète l’univers singulier de Monique Becker : un espace où le noir n’absorbe pas seulement la lumière, mais crée une zone de silence et d’introspection.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
Black is not absence but presence
</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Pour l’artiste, le noir n’est jamais un vide. « Black is not absence but presence », affirme-t-elle, résumant l’essence de son travail. Ses toiles, façonnées par couches successives, marient force et fragilité, suggestion et retenue. Elles invitent le spectateur à un regard attentif, à une expérience sensible qui se dévoile progressivement.</p>
<h2>Une écriture artistique personnelle</h2>
<p>Formée notamment auprès du peintre autrichien Hermann Nitsch, une rencontre majeure dans son parcours, Monique Becker a développé une gestuelle instinctive et une écriture picturale qui lui sont propres. Son travail a intégré plusieurs collections de référence, dont celles du MUDAM et du MNAHA, confirmant sa place parmi les artistes significatifs de la scène contemporaine luxembourgeoise.</p>
