Crédit Mutuel Arkéa

With you, with all our strength

Crédit Mutuel Arkéa is a cooperative banking and insurance group. It is not listed on the stock exchange. It belongs to its members, who are both shareholders and customers and who, at every level of decision-making, shape its strategy through democratic governance and according to the principle of “one person = one vote”.

Crédit Mutuel Arkéa is made up of the Crédit Mutuel de Bretagne and Crédit Mutuel du Sud-Ouest federations, together with around forty specialised subsidiaries (Fortuneo, Suravenir, Arkéa Asset Management, Arkéa Banque Entreprises et Institutionnels, etc.). Crédit Mutuel Arkéa covers every business line in banking and insurance and also holds growing positions in the markets for real-estate services and connected services (remote assistance, remote security, etc.).

Committed to maintaining its decision-making centres — its head office is in Brest — and its regional employment hubs, Crédit Mutuel Arkéa builds its growth at the heart of local communities. With a strong presence in Brittany and Nouvelle-Aquitaine and more than 400 points of sale, Crédit Mutuel Arkéa now reaches across the whole of France and serves customers throughout Europe through its online banks and financial services as well as its subsidiaries.

Innovative and bold, Crédit Mutuel Arkéa is on a path of continuous growth:

• €450 million in net income in 2025
• 5.6 million members and customers
• More than 11,500 employees
• More than 2,500 directors

As a purpose-driven company (“entreprise à mission”), Crédit Mutuel Arkéa aims to be the trusted banking partner of a world engaged in profound and rapid societal and environmental transitions. It puts its performance at the service of financing the real economy, local communities and their stakeholders, as well as the life projects of its members and customers.

As a mutual and cooperative bank, the Group wants to be part of the moments that matter across its regions and is delighted to once again be title partner of the Arkéa Ultim Challenge Brest for this second edition.

A word from Julien Carmona, Chairman of Crédit Mutuel Arkéa and Crédit Mutuel de Bretagne:

“Following the popular success of the first edition, Crédit Mutuel Arkéa is especially proud to renew its commitment as title partner of the Arkéa Ultim Challenge Brest. As a regional bank, we are deeply committed to supporting projects that create lasting value, strengthen the appeal of our regions and give local people moments of pride and shared experience. That is the whole ambition behind our involvement in this race — all the more so here, where our Group has its roots. Alongside the City of Brest, local authorities, OC Sport Pen Duick, the Ultim Class and all the partners, we are glad to contribute to an adventure that goes well beyond sport alone. The rendezvous is now set for 2028 for the skippers, the enthusiasts and all those who wish to write a new page in the history of offshore racing.”
