Career
Following his studies, Bonnafé joined the Ministry of Industry before moving into private equity and then BNP in 1993. At BNP, he formulated the bank’s double bid for Société Générale (SocGen) and Paribas in 1999, which ended with BNP winning the latter but forced to drop its offer for SocGen.
