Arthur Fery's stunning run to the Wimbledon quarter-finals has brought his father Loic Fery into the limelight. Loic Fery, a prominent French businessman and sports executive, has amassed a substantial fortune — with an estimated net worth of over €320 million (around £275 million) — primarily through his remarkably successful career in global finance.
Education and Early Career
Loic graduated from HEC Paris, one of Europe's most prestigious business schools, which opened the door to his rise through the ranks of international banking. Between 1997 and 2007, he worked as a financial trader across major economic hubs, including Hong Kong and London, handling credit derivatives and structured credit for banking heavyweights Société Générale and Crédit Agricole.
Founding a Major Hedge Fund
In late 2007, he launched Chenavari Investment Managers, a London-based hedge fund specialising in alternative credit and fixed income. The firm grew into a resounding success, expanding to oversee more than $5 billion in assets.
Football Club Ownership
Leveraging his wealth, he moved into the sports industry in 2009 by taking ownership and the presidency of French football club FC Lorient. During his tenure, the club competed across 14 seasons in Ligue 1 before he relinquished his ownership stake in early 2026 (while remaining in his role as president).
Marriage and Family
Loic married Olivia in 2001 but the couple divorced in 2022. They have three children together — two boys and a girl — with Arthur being the eldest.
Tennis Background
Arthur's tennis career was seemingly shaped by his mother, who was a professional player on the WTA Tour in the early 1990s. Most notably, she featured in the main draw of the women's doubles at the 1991 French Open. Although French by nationality, she later relocated to Hong Kong, established residency there, and went on to represent the Hong Kong Fed Cup team throughout her playing career.
Sports Administration
Following her move to the UK with her family when Arthur was still an infant, she remained closely involved in the sport, taking up a role as business development manager for the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) — the governing body of tennis in Great Britain.
According to reports, Arthur Fery's family background has played a significant role in his tennis development, with his father's financial success enabling access to top-tier training and facilities.
