Territories

A civic commitment at the heart of territories 

Our historical affiliation with La Banque Postale gives us a natural sensitivity and anchorage with the territories. Our investment convictions related to this theme are in line with the identity of our group. We strive to support and highlight the actors at the heart of local dynamics.

France: An Investment Theme at the Core of Our Convictions

France remains a reference for globally recognized expertise in many sectors, including the French art of living, luxury, tourism and hospitality, design, aeronautics, and much more.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and intermediate-sized enterprises (ETIs) play a crucial role in this dynamic. Present in all territories, they contribute to economic vitality and innovation, thus strengthening France's position on the international stage.

Contributing to the Financing of French Companies  

Convinced of the strength and competitiveness of French SMEs and ETIs, we seek to support their development, whether they are listed or unlisted, champions in their sector or emerging. LBP AM deploys several investment strategies to contribute to this

  Focus on two funds invested in listed French companies:

  Focus on LBP AM European Private Markets:

  • The corporate private debt division of LBP AM supports SMEs and ETIs across France in their financing needs, investments, external growth, etc. More than 120 companies and 160 transactions have been supported, for over 2 billion euros through 8 funds*.
  • The infrastructure debt and real estate debt divisions of LBP AM also play a key role in supporting French companies by financing essential projects for the energy transition and territorial development.

«Meeting Our Territorial Talents»


Highlighting our territorial champions is the vocation of an annual event we have organized since 2023. After the success of the first edition held in Lyon, two other stages were organized in 2024, in Nantes and Lille, by LBP AM with the support of La Poste and La Banque Postale. These events, which brought together several hundred advisors and clients, testify to the vitality of French entrepreneurship at the heart of the territories.

Organized as round tables and enriching feedback sessions, this initiative aims to promote local entrepreneurship as well as the journey of listed champions.

"We have many champions enjoying international influence. They benefit from the rise of the middle classes in emerging countries, whose consumption needs are immense and increasingly sophisticated."
Pierre Schang, manager at La Financière de l’Échiquier.
