Mission

With 541 employees in France and abroad, LaFrançaise manages €50 billion in assets (as of 31 / 12 / 2022). Organized around the two pillars of "financial assets" and "real estate assets", La Française deploys a multi‑boutique model for institutional and wealth management clients in France and abroad through its offices in Paris, Frankfurt, Geneva, Hamburg, Hong Kong, London, Luxembourg, Madrid, Milan, Seoul and Singapore.

The La Française Group has a strong shareholder base as a subsidiary of the Caisse Régionale du Crédit Mutuel NordEurope (CMNE), which is now part of Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale. This merger between CMNE and CMAF will strengthen existing synergies for clients and should open up new development opportunities for La Française.
