Appointment of Officer

 

On January 7, 2022, Apollo Global Management, Inc. (“AGM”) announced that Louis-Jacques Tanguy has been appointed as Chief Accounting Officer and Controller of AGM and as Chief Accounting Officer and Controller of Apollo Asset Management, Inc. (the “Company”), with such appointments to be effective upon the start of his employment, which is expected to commence on January 11, 2022.

 

Since 2009, Louis-Jacques Tanguy, 50, has been a Managing Director at Deutsche Bank. Most recently, he was Managing Director, Head of Group Finance Americas and Global Head of Business Finance for Origination and Advisory at Deutsche Bank, where he provided a broad range of services in London and New York related to business finance, valuation control and complex trade reviews, treasury finance, financial performance and planning, accounting and regulatory policy and disclosure. From 2006 to 2008, Mr. Tanguy was Head of Asia Pacific Product Valuation Group at Merrill Lynch Japan Securities in Tokyo. From 2002 to 2006, Mr. Tanguy was Head of Finance Product Control and Head of Risk and P&L for Fixed Income & Derivatives at Société Générale in Tokyo and Paris. He was previously an Associate Professor of Finance at the University of Aix-Marseille and Marseille Business School. Mr. Tanguy graduated from the University of Aix-Marseille with a Bachelor of Arts in Economics, a Master’s degree in Applied Finance and a Doctor of Philosophy in Business Management.

 

Mr. Tanguy has no family relationship with any member of the Board of Directors or any executive officer of the Company and is not a party to any transactions listed in Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Tanguy and any other persons pursuant to which he was appointed Chief Accounting Officer and Controller of the Company.

 

It is anticipated that Mr. Tanguy will enter into an indemnification agreement in substantially the same form as the Company enters into with its directors and executive officers. In connection with his appointments at the Company and at AGM, Mr. Tanguy will receive a one-time cash award of $560,000 and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) of Apollo Global Management, Inc. with an aggregate value of $340,000, which RSUs will vest in three equal annual installments. In addition, Mr. Tanguy will receive an award of RSUs based on the value of certain compensation he forfeited as a result of his termination of employment from Deutsche Bank (in an amount not to exceed $600,000), which RSUs will vest on or about such times as the forfeited compensation would have vested had his employment at Deutsche Bank continued. The RSUs will be granted under the Apollo Global Management, Inc. 2019 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and restated as of January 1, 2022.
