Building a collective dynamic

Our Executive Committee proposes and implements the Group’s strategy

The Executive Committee draws on the expertise of each of its 19 members as they collectively work to ensure the management of the Group’s activity. The Executive Committee has placed sustainable finance at the heart of its strategy and stands out for its increased demand for innovation and operational efficiency to better meet the needs and uses of its clients.

As of 19 May 2021, the Executive Committee is made up of five members from the Executive Management team and 14 members in charge of a business line or central function.

Focus on the next strategic plan

Throughout 2021, the Executive Committee was dedicated to the preparation of the 2025 strategic plan, which was revealed on 8 February 2022 during the Group’s annual results. This plan is named GTS (Growth, Technology, Sustainability) 2025. It is focused on the pursuit of profitable growth, the increased use of technology and industrialisation, and the acceleration and deployment at scale of sustainable finance throughout the Group. The Group continues to develop its leading European platforms in all its activities to better serve its customers.

More women in governing bodies

With women making up nearly one‑third of the Executive Committee in 2021, BNP Paribas has made a commitment to increase the representation of women to 40% by 2025. In addition to appointments to the Executive Committee, the G100 (the Group’s 100 top managers) is now also made up of one‑third female members. The objective to achieve gender parity among Group Talents, a programme for future management, has already been met.
