Career

[edit]

Rodolphe Blavy started his career in banking, working first for J.P. Morgan as an M&A analyst while completing his M.B.A. and then as an associate and derivatives trader at Lehman Brothers.

Since joining the IMF in 2001, Rodolphe Blavy covered key policy issues for Low income countries (with a focus on Africa) and emerging markets (including Mexico and Venezuela), in particular related to macro-financial linkages and has been involved in the negotiation and monitoring of Fund-supported programs (Nigeria, Rwanda, Comoros, Guinea, and Gabon).[3]

In the context of the crisis, he joined the IMF Strategy Unit, a group instrumental in IMF reforms, including new lending facilities, financing, cross-country macro and financial surveillance, governance, and the reform of the International Monetary System. He was appointed to the role of Deputy Director of the IMF Offices in Europe in 2009, dealing with crisis-related and G20 issues. Rodolphe Blavy represents the IMF officially in international meetings[4][5], including at the OECD[6], G20 meetings, and other institutions in Europe[7]. He has extensively been involved as a public speaker in the policy debate, notably in Europe.[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]

He has published extensively, on topics covering financial sector issues and more generally policy issues.[16][17]

Rodolphe Blavy worked as Visiting Professor at Sciences Po Paris, teaching “Economic Policy” and at Université Paris Dauphine, teaching “International Macroeconomics”[18] and setting up a university thinktank, “Warning Signals,” focused on bringing a prospective analysis of key global macroeconomic issues.[19]

Art and Literature

[edit]

Rodolphe Blavy has shown a strong commitment to the arts. He published his first novel in 2015[20][21][22][23][24][25], Le Pardon[26] (Ed. Arléa)[27][28]– a novel narrating the confrontation of a young man with Africa[29][30][31], in a struggle to set himself free from the bounds of the past[32] [33]. In 2010, he also co-directed and choregraphed “Vous Dansez,”[34] a play presented at the Théâtre du Marais as an exploration of the challenging world of dancers, based on a text by Marie Nimier.[35]

Since 2018, Rodolphe Blavy is a member of the Acquisition Committee for Contemporary Art at the Centre Pompidou and a benefactor for the Museum. In 2019, he was a founding member of the African Committee, focused on modern and contemporary African art. Part of his collection, dedicated to his children Margaux and Raphael, has been displayed internationally in museum shows.
