“In 2022, in a particularly turbulent environment, IPS demonstrated its agility and resilience. Our course for 2025 remains unchanged: enrich our offer thanks to technology and systematise the integration of the sustainable dimension, to better meet the needs of our customers.”
Strategy for 2025
With the launch of the GTS 2025 strategic plan, IPS aims to become a leading European player in sustainable savings, investments and protection. To this end, the division is expanding its service offering and strengthening its distribution networks.
Three strategic priorities have been defined:
- accelerate financial savings development;
- capture growth in private assets;
- strengthen leadership in responsible investments.
Progress in 2022
In a context of market turbulence and a new interest rate paradigm, IPS has been able to effectively adapt its offer to accompany its customers.
At the same time, the division made a good start to its strategic plan in its various dimensions:
- strengthening of the product offer: creation of a Private Assets group, development of international protection, targeted acquisitions in asset management;
- consolidating distribution: renewal of key partnerships, signing of new agreements;
- enhancing our CSR approach: publication of net-zero trajectories as an investor (Net-Zero Asset Owner Alliance) and as an asset manager (Net Zero Asset Managers Initiative);
- improving the operational efficiency of platforms and accelerating digitalisation.
