The head of AXA IM’s proximity services discusses the importance of creating a digital experience during the lockdown in France. I remember a discussion I had with a senior manager at AXA Investment Managers (AXA IM) right at the beginning of what in France has been termed the “confinement” – or “lockdown” in the UK.
