Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale launches its specialised asset management hub, Crédit Mutuel Investment Managers

The decision to combine the sales and marketing support teams within Crédit Mutuel Investment Managers reflects Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale’s overall strategy to promote the investment solutions of its management entities through a ‘multi-boutique’ model.

This structure gives investors access to a wide variety of asset classes managed by professionals who have recognised skills and expertise. Our prudent investment approach, which has proved its worth over the long term, is based on the great stability of the management teams, a focus on clients' interests, shared convictions for alternative management and the solidity of Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale.

The specialised hub is composed of the following partner entities : Crédit Mutuel Asset Management, BLI - Banque de Luxembourg Investments, CIC for structured product issues conducted by CIC Market Solutions, Cigogne Management, CIC Private Debt, and Dubly Transatlantique Gestion.

Philippe Vidal, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Crédit Mutuel Investment Managers and Deputy Chief Executive of CIC, says : “With a strong international vocation, Crédit Mutuel Investment Managers has teams in six European countries and over 30 sales staff who can offer the partner entities’ products in more than ten countries.”

Daniel Baal, Chief Executive of Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale, comments : “The creation of Crédit Mutuel Investment Managers reflects Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale's asset management ambitions, the aim being to accelerate its development both for the benefit of clients of the Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale networks and for external investors and distributors in France and abroad. Their combined expertise will enable us to fully satisfy investors' expectations.”
