These results represent a solid base for the kick-off of the 2021-2024 strategic plan and for the ongoing growth of Natixis' four businesses under the simplification and development project presented by Groupe BPCE in February.
I would like to pay tribute to the exceptional commitment of our teams who have remained fully mobilized throughout this unprecedented crisis to support our clients and contribute to a sustainable economic recovery.'
