Societe Generale Corporate & Investment Banking (SG CIB) reinforces its global markets offering with the opening in Paris, by end-2018, of a clearing capability for clients on listed derivatives and over-the-counter products (OTC). The bank is also further strengthening Prime Services sales teams in Continental Europe.
Since 2015 , SG CIB has a solid Prime Services offer and a well-resourced team of experts servicing Continental Europe from the Paris office. By the end of the year, this offer will include the option to clear client trades directly from the Paris platform.
Benefitting from a world-leading position in clearing, SG CIB strengthens its existing multi-entity booking model by offering this new capacity in Paris, in addition to London, New-York and Hong-Kong.
The Bank also continues to reinforce its Prime Services’ sales force in Continental Europe with recruitments of senior people in the past year.
