Jean-Francois Dieudonne is celebrating his sixth year in Melbourne, Australia. He enjoys very much the Australian way of life (a blend between European and American lifestyle in nicer weather conditions than London, where he was before). Professionally, Jean-Francois is still in funds management as a boutique fund manager at JCP Investment Partners (having bought back their JV partner JP Morgan Asset Management last year and is now fully owned by all employees). Personally, he is aiming to instill some French culture and language to his little girl Chloe (5). It’s a hard task but hopefully she will gain dual French-Australian culture over time. If you are visiting Melbourne, feel free to contact him!
