Groupe BPCE and the French national olympic and sports committee signed a three-year partnership agreement. This is the first partnership of this kind entered into by Groupe BPCE in the area of sports. It gives concrete expression to Groupe BPCE's support of the Olympic movement and its values. Groupe BPCE as a whole - second banking player in France - has become the partner of the French olympic team for the Vancouver Games, and the London Games of 2012. It also supports Annecy, candidate city to host the 2018 Winter Olympics. Natixis wholeheartedly shares this approach. |
