Meet the Founder
Balancia was founded by Arnaud Petel, a former investment banker with over a decade of experience advising Fortune 500 companies, private equity firms, and growth-stage businesses on M&A, capital strategy, and financial transformation.Before launching Balancia, Arnaud was a Director at Centerview Partners and a Vice President at BNP Paribas, where he led multi-billion-dollar transactions and advised C-level executives across industries.After creating two startups — one in SaaS and one in DTC — he saw firsthand how critical financial decisions are in the early stages of building a business. That experience inspired him to help founders and growth companies treat finance as a foundation for scale — not an afterthought.
