Good results and financial strength further improved

The Crédit Agricole Group reported this morning net income Group share of 1.9 billion euros in Q2 2016. Underlying net income Group share came to 1.6 billion euros, stable compared with its second-quarter 2015 level. The Regional Banks continued to display healthy commercial momentum. Crédit Agricole S.A. reported net income Group share of 1.16 billion euros and underlying net income Group share of 818 million euros, an increase of 13%. These healthy second-quarter results reflect the commercial momentum across all the business lines, a still cautious risk profile and the strength of our business model, despite the low interest-rate environment. From a solvency perspective, the fully-loaded Basel III Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio stood at 14.2% for the Group and 11.2% for Crédit Agricole S.A. Eurêka, the project to streamline the Group’s corporate structure, has now been completed. Its financial impact will crystallise in the third quarter of 2016. The stress tests conducted by the European Banking Authority confirm that the Group is in a strong financial position.
