Agreements for the disposals of Societe Generale Equipment Finance[4], Société Générale Marocaine de Banques and La Marocaine Vie[5]

Streamlining project of the French head office to simplify its operations and structurally improve its operating efficiency

Launch of Bernstein, a new leader in research and cash equities, allowing the Group to offer its clients a wide range of international services on the whole equity value chain

Slawomir Krupa, the Group’s Chief Executive Officer, commented: 
“We are progressing in the execution of our strategic plan. Our operating performance improved thanks to a strong contribution from Global Banking and Investor Solutions and solid revenues from International Retail Banking. The rebound of retail banking in France is underway with an increase in the net interest income compared to last quarter, despite an increase in deposit beta in the French market. Similarly, the stabilisation of Ayvens’s margins has already begun, in a context of normalisation of used car sales prices. Costs are under control, in line with the trajectory presented at our Capital Markets Day. Our capital position is stronger. In terms of strategic initiatives, we launched the Bernstein joint venture, creating a new leader in research and cash equity and we announced the planned disposals of Societe Generale Equipment Finance and subsidiaries in Morocco. These first positive results demonstrate the mobilisation of all the teams to shape a more synergetic and efficient model, a source of sustainable profitability.”
