26 Years in Risk Leadership. Here's Why I Founded Aevitium
I am Julien Haye [FRM, MBA, ASCI, Cert CRP, CPAY], a former Chief Risk Officer, board member, and long-time advocate for reshaping how organisations think about risk. After nearly three decades in global financial services, I created Aevitium to bring practical, people-focused solutions to governance, compliance, and operational resilience. At Aevitium, we see risk not just as a function, but as a tool for performance, trust, and long-term value.

The Story Behind Aevitium
Julien Haye founded Aevitium LTD to help organisations address complex risk and compliance challenges with practical insight and strategic depth. The decision was rooted in a long family history of entrepreneurship and a professional journey shaped by thoughtful, deliberate choices.
Motivated by a strong desire to contribute meaningfully, Julien planned his move into consulting with care. He built a trusted collaborative network, anticipated a period of limited revenue, and put in place safeguards to manage financial and operational risks. These were the same disciplined principles he had applied throughout his career.
Six months into Aevitium’s journey, Julien reflects with appreciation for the support he has received and a sense of purpose for what lies ahead. Aevitium is not simply a business venture. It is a continuation of more than two decades of experience spanning front-office trading, risk transformation, and executive leadership.
The focus is clear: support leaders in navigating uncertainty, shaping more resilient organisations, and unlocking the value of risk. Aevitium exists to offer calm, informed guidance where complexity and pressure converge.
