Encounter with EDF, a key player in the energy transition

Crédit Agricole leverages its immense mutual banking structure to lead European green debt underwriting and climate advisory. Through its investment banking division, the group regularly structures large-scale green bond frameworks for corporate issuers, all the while enforcing sector-specific exit strategies. These range from thermal coal to unabated fossil fuel expansion, positioning the bank as a central financing partner for industrial decarbonisation. The group rests the foundations for its decision on its CSR strategy, which is pivotal to the business model.
