Three operating divisions
serving our clients

BNP Paribas is organised around three operating divisions: Corporate & Institutional Banking (CIB), Commercial, Personal Banking & Services (CPBS) and Investment & Protection Services (IPS). Focused on our clients’ needs, they represent the three pillars of our diversified and integrated business model. Designed to foster collaboration between all our business lines and to meet the expectations of our stakeholders, these divisions implement a comprehensive, shared approach in order to enhance each other’s expertise and provide our clients with bespoke, long-term support for all their projects.

Corporate & Institutional Banking

Corporate & Institutional Banking (CIB) acts as a bridge between two types of clients: corporate clients and institutional clients - banks, insurance companies and asset managers. CIB teams connect the financing needs of the former with the investment opportunities sought by the latter, by offering them tailor-made solutions in the areas of capital markets, securities services, financing, risk management, cash management and financial advice.

As part of our strategic plan, CIB is implementing its goal of becoming the leading European player among the major global corporate and institutional banks, as well as the preferred partner of its clients in their transition to sustainable development. Operating in three major regions - Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA); Americas; Asia-Pacific (APAC) - its teams work to meet client expectations as fully as possible through three dedicated business lines.
