Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank (Crédit Agricole CIB, formerly Calyon) is Crédit Agricole's corporate and investment banking entity. With a staff of 9500 employees[1] in 32 countries,[2] Crédit Agricole CIB is active in a broad range of capital markets, investment banking and financing activities. Clients are primarily corporates, governments, and banks, with a small footprint in the investor segment.

History

Calyon was created in May 2004 by the transfer of assets from Crédit Lyonnais' Corporate and Investment Banking division to Crédit Agricole Indosuez (CAI), which had been created in 1996 with the purchase of Banque Indosuez by Crédit Agricole.

The division was rebranded Credit Agricole Corporate & Investment Bank (CACIB) in Feb 2010.

The bank's commitments

CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility)

Crédit Agricole CIB is committed as far as Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is concerned. One example is FReD,[3] a Crédit Agricole S.A program to enhance CSR: action plans cover environmental aspects (recycling, biodiversity…), employee-related projects (background and gender equality, handicap) and customer-related issues (fight against fraud, protection of personal data …). These plans are monitored by progress indicators.

Patronage

Since 2009 Crédit Agricole CIB has been a patron of the musée du quai Branly[4] and since 2010 of the Théâtre du Châtelet. For several years, Crédit Agricole CIB has participated in the Financial Community Telethon,[5] an event which takes place in December as part of the National Telethon.

Business Lines

Its activities are arranged into six major divisions: Client Coverage & International Network, Debt Optimization & Distribution, Global Investment Bank, Global Markets Division, Structured Finance and International Trade & Transaction Banking.

Client Coverage & International Network

It is also in charge of underwriting and of primary and secondary distribution of syndicated loans to banks and non-bank institutional investors.[citation needed]

Global Investment Bank

In France and throughout the world, Global Investment Banking helps the Bank's clients by advising them on issues related to "top-half of the balance sheet" (i.e. equity) transactions and structuring and executing specialised financing (Telecom Finance and Structured Financial Solutions).

Global Markets Division

Global Markets handles all sales and trading activities on the primary and secondary markets (rates, credit, foreign exchange, fixed-income, securitisation and treasury) for products designed for corporates, financial institutions and large issuers. These trading and sales entities are supported by research departments.

Structured Finance

The Structured Finance business consists in originating, structuring, and financing operations involving large-scale investments in France and abroad, often backed by collateral security (e.g. aircraft, ships, corporate real estate, or commodities), as well as complex and structured loans.

International Trade & Transaction Banking
