Bio

Hello,


I'm Valerie and I’m a qualified translator from English to French. I also hold a certification in financial translation.

To date, I have been translating a wide range of documents in the banking and insurance industry, including economic and market surveys, financial products, securities, regulatory documents, financial statements, management reports, sustainability reports, investment funds analysis, communication to clients, newsletters, website pages, financial systems localization etc.

 With over 20 years of experience in the finance sector as an Executive assistant to higher management (institutional investors, securities, investment banking, SME accountancy), I offer dual expertise: a deep understanding of financial terminology and concepts, combined with a strong knowledge of the corporate world from inside.

To me, finance is about strategies that drive companies, shape economies, and influence the world. 

Sustainable finance resonates strongly with me for its role in supporting environmentally and social beneficial projects, that's why I enhance my skills and knowledge in that specific field.

Like many people and businesses, I am concerned about the future of our planet, and I enjoy working on projects related to sustainability, climate change mitigation, and environmental protection.

In addition, I also translate for tourism & hospitality industries.

Do you need to communicate clearly in French with cultural sensitivity to reach your target audience, build trust and increase your impact?
