About the company
Crédit Agricole is a mutual group: customers who are members own Local Banks, which own the Regional Banks, which in turn own most of the listed Crédit Agricole S.A. The group reported FY2025 revenues of €39.6 billion, of which Crédit Agricole S.A. accounted for €28.1 billion.
The lines in this diagram show mutual ownership and group membership, not reporting lines or an instruction chain. Olivier Gavalda is Chief Executive Officer of Crédit Agricole S.A. only; the Regional Banks are independent cooperative banks, and Eric Vial chairs both SAS Rue La Boétie and the Crédit Agricole S.A. Board.
How Crédit Agricole is organized
At the base are the Local Banks, owned by their mutual shareholders, who elect the directors. The Local Banks own most of the capital of the 39 Regional Banks (Caisses régionales), the cooperative banks that serve individuals, farmers, small businesses, companies and local authorities.
The Regional Banks together own 63.5% of Crédit Agricole S.A., which is listed on Euronext Paris and acts as the central body: it ensures cohesion of the network and coordinates strategy with the specialist subsidiaries. Their stake is held through SAS Rue La Boétie. The FNCA (Fédération Nationale du Crédit Agricole) is the body through which the Regional Banks discuss policy and represent themselves.
Beneath Crédit Agricole S.A. sit the business lines: LCL (retail banking in France), international retail banking (Crédit Agricole Italia, Polska, Ukraine, Egypt), large customers (Crédit Agricole CIB, CACEIS), specialised financial services, and asset gathering and insurance (Crédit Agricole Assurances, Amundi, Indosuez Wealth Management). The Regional Banks and LCL together make up retail banking in France.

How this structure supports the business
Ownership runs upward from members to the listed company while strategy and services are coordinated downward, so the tree reads differently from a conventional corporate hierarchy.
Retail banking in France is split between the mutual Regional Banks and LCL, which is a subsidiary of Crédit Agricole S.A.
