Press Release<\/p>\n
Paris, 24 July 2025<\/p>\n
LCL and Cr\u00e9dit Agricole Assurances announce their entry into exclusive negotiations with AnaCap for the joint acquisition of Milleis Group<\/p>\n
LCL and Cr\u00e9dit Agricole Assurances have entered into exclusive negotiations with AnaCap, a private equity fund investing in the European mid-market segment, for the joint acquisition of Milleis Group, a long-standing independent player in private banking and wealth management in France .<\/p>\n
This joint project by LCL and Cr\u00e9dit Agricole Assurances encompasses the acquisition by LCL of the entire Milleis Group, namely Milleis Banque and its subsidiaries Milleis Vie and Cholet Dupont Oudart. This would be immediately followed by the sale of the life insurance company Milleis Vie by LCL to Cr\u00e9dit Agricole Assurances.<\/p>\n
This acquisition would enable LCL to strengthen its position in the French wealth management market and develop synergies. It would also provide Cr\u00e9dit Agricole Assurances with the opportunity to reinforce the positioning of its subsidiary Spirica in the high net worth segment and to broaden its distribution channels.<\/p>\n
The project will be subject to consultation with the employee representative bodies of the various entities involved, with a potential completion of the transaction in the first half of 2026. It would also remain subject to the usual condition precedents, including obtaining regulatory approvals.<\/p>\n
This transaction would be in line with the Group\u2019s return on investment objectives, and its impact on the CET1 ratio of Cr\u00e9dit Agricole S.A., the parent company of Cr\u00e9dit Agricole Assurances and LCL, would be limited.<\/p>\n
