History

Briefly name

National Bank of Paris SA ( BNP ) - National Bank for Trade and Industry (BNCI) and National Discount Counter Paris (CNEP) - in 1966.

The Banque de Paris et des Pays-Bas SA ( Bank of Paris and Netherlands ), or Paribas each in Paris and Amsterdam, in 1872.

Les Pays-Bas ("The Low Countries") is French for Dutch.

In May 2000, BNP and Paribas merged to form BNP Paribas, which is a derivative of four established banking institutions.

Heritage

BNP (Banque Nationale de Paris)

On March 7, 1848, the Provisional Government of France established the Comptoir national d'escompte de Paris (CNEP) in response to the financial shocks caused by the February 1848 revolution. The upheaval destroyed the old credit system, which had struggled to provide sufficient capital to meet the demands of the railroad boom and the resulting industrial growth. CEP grew steadily in France and abroad, although in 1889 there was a crisis where it put in curators.

Separately, on April 18, 1932, the French government replaced the Banque nationale de crà ©  © dit (BNC), which failed as a result of the 1930s recession, with the new bank Banque nationale pour le commerce et l'industrie (BNCI). The former headquarters of banks and staff were used to create BNCI with a fresh capital of 100 million francs. Banks initially grew rapidly through absorbing several regional banks that got into financial trouble. After the Second World War, it continued to grow steadily. The company expanded its retail business in France and its commercial business overseas in the French colonial empire.

After the end of the Second World War, the French state decided to "put banks and credits to work for national reconstruction". Renà ©  © Pleven, then Minister of Finance, launched a massive reorganization of the banking industry. A law passed on 2 December 1945 and which came into force on 1 January 1946 nationalized four leading French retail banks: Banque nationale pour le commerce et l'industrie (BNCI), Comptoir national d'escompte de Paris (CNEP), CrÃI  © dit Lyonnais, and SociÃÆ' © tÃÆ'  © GÃÆ'  © nÃÆ'  © rale.

In 1966, the French government decided to combine the National Discount Bank of Paris with the National Bank for Trade and Industry to create a new bank called the National Bank of Paris < i> (BNP).

Bank re-privatized in 1993 under the leadership of Michel PÃÆ' Â © Bereau has a share of the government's privatization policy of this second Chirac.

Paribas (Bank of Paris and the Netherlands)

The Banque de Paris et des Pays-Bas (Paribas) was set up on January 27, 1872, through the merger of the Banque de CrÃÆ'Â © dit et de DÃÆ'Â © pÃ'té Pays-Bas, which was founded in the year 1820 by Louis-RaphaÃÆ'Â ± l Bischoffsheim in Amsterdam, and Banque de Paris , founded in 1869 by a group of Parisian bankers. He went on to develop a strong investment banking business both domestically in France and abroad.

During the period from 1872 to 1913, he was involved in raising funds for the French and other governments and large businesses through a number of bond issues. It helped the French government raise funds during the First World War and raised further capital and expanded into investment into industrial companies during the Great Depression. It was stagnant and lost assets during the Second World War.

After World War II, he yearned for the nationalization of other French banks because of his status as an investment bank and managed to take advantage of it by expanding its operations abroad. It also directs its activities towards business and participates in the development and restructuring of the French industry, including names such as Groupe Bull and Thomson-CSF.

The bank was nationalized in 1982 by the government of Pierre Mauroy under FranÃÆ'§ois Mitterrand as part of a law that nationalized five major industrial companies, thirty-nine registered banks, and two financial companies, Suez and Paribas. It was privatized back in January 1987 by the Chirac government.

In the 1990s, Paribas had an active policy to acquire and divest. This includes selling Ottoman Banks to Do? Holding, and setting up a joint venture loan company Cetelem in Germany. It sold CrÃÆ' © dit du Nord to Socià © à © tÃÆ'  © gÃÆ'  © nÃÆ'  © rale and in 1998 it merged with Compagnie Bancaire , renamed the bank with the official name of Compagnie FinanciÃÆ' ¨re de Paribas .

Establishment of BNP Paribas

In 1999, BNP and Socià © à © tà © à © gÃÆ'  © nÃÆ'  © rale fought in a complex battle in the stock market, with SosiÃÆ' © GÃÆ'  © nÃÆ'  © rale bid Paribas and BNP bid SociÃÆ' © tÃÆ'  © gÃÆ'  © nÃÆ'  © rale and counter-deals for Paribas. BNP's offer to Socià © à © TÃÆ'Ã… © GÃÆ'  © nÃÆ'  © rale failed, while his bid for Paribas successfully led to the merger of BNP and Paribas a year later on May 22, 2000.

On August 9, 2007, BNP Paribas became the first major financial group to recognize the impact of the sub-prime crisis by closing the two affected funds. Today is now generally seen as the beginning of the credit crisis and the bank's quick reaction saved him from the fate of other major European banks such as UBS.

On October 6, 2008, the BNP took over 75% of troubled bank activity Fortis in Belgium, and 66% in Luxembourg, in exchange for the Belgian government being the main shareholder of the new group. The sale of Fortis shares was suspended by court order from the Court of Appeals on Friday 12 December

On December 14, 2008, the BNP announced it could lose EUR350 million as a victim of Madoff's fraud.

In late January, the Belgian government and the BNP negotiated for a 75% partnership in Fortis Bank Belgium. Fortis Insurance Belgium will be reintegrated at Fortis Holding.

On February 11, Fortis shareholders ruled that Fortis Bank Belgium and Fortis Insurance Belgium should not belong to BNP Paribas. However, the acquisition was completed, and BNP Paribas took 75% ownership of the shares and renamed the new subsidiary BNP Paribas Fortis. After this only Fortis Insurance International is left in Fortis Holding and this is renamed to Ageas, a business that has Insurance across Europe and Asia. The remaining Fortis Bank Netherlands is in the hands of the Dutch Government which combines it with other ABN AMRO ownership already owned by the name ABN AMRO.

In May 2009, BNP Paribas became the majority shareholder (65.96%) of the BGL (formerly Fortis Bank of Luxembourg), the State of Luxembourg maintaining 34% making BNP the largest bank in the eurozone with deposits held.

On September 21st, the registered bank name was changed to BGL BNP Paribas and in February 2010, BGL BNP Paribas became the owner of 100% BNP Paribas Luxembourg. This transfer was completed on October 1, 2010 with the merger of BNP Paribas Luxembourg business in BGL BNP Paribas operational platform. In 2013, BNP Paribas was awarded the Bank of the Year by The International Financing Review ("IFR"), the leading financial industry publication of Thomson Reuters. The IFR award is a key industry benchmark and the Bank of the Year award is the highest award.

BNP Paribas reached an agreement in December 2013 to acquire BGZ Bank Rabobank unit for approximately $ 1.4 billion. In September 2014, BNP completed the purchase of Bank BGZ with a final fee stated in the media to $ 1.3 billion.

In June 2014, BNP Paribas pleaded guilty to falsifying business records and conspiracy, after violating US sanctions against Cuba, Iran and Sudan. He agreed to pay a $ 8.9 billion fine, the largest ever to breach US sanctions at the time.

    Controversy

    Allegations of antisemitic

    In 2016, BNP reached a $ 40 million settlement with a Jewish employee. Previously, the employee was made to watch a training video. The film portrays Adolf Hitler as CEO of Deutsche Bank, one of the BNP's competitors and the surrounding Nazi army as Deutsche Bank executive. The video shows Hitler shouting at the soldiers. Also, his colleagues made a number of anti-semitic comments during his time at BNP Paribas.

    Check processing

    In 2010, the French government, Autorità © de la concurrence, fined BNP and 10 other banks of EUR384 million to collude to impose unauthorized charges on check processing, including additional fees during the transition from paper check transfers to electronic transfers "Exchange of Pictures -Check". On January 19, 2011 BNP sued Russian grain trader, OOO Rosinteragroservis, and its subsidiary OAO Kubankhlebprodukt, claiming US $ 20 million in debt and fines.

    Nuclear investment

    BNP Paribas is the largest investor in the nuclear sector as a bank, according to Profundo, with more than EUR13.5 billion in nuclear investments. On October 23, 2011 Greenpeace organized a protest against BNP Paribas in 24 French cities.

    Breach of sanctions

    On May 30, 2014, The Wall Street Journal reported that the US Department of Justice was negotiating possible allegations of guilt with BNP Paribas as well as the size of the fines generated for violating US regulations and avoiding US sanctions. The Justice Department is seeking a fine of more than US $ 10 billion, which is expected to be reduced to $ 8 or $ 9 billion in negotiations. BNP Paribas is said to have laundered up to US $ 100 billion from countries affected by Sudan, Iran and Cuba sanctions.

    On July 1, 2014, BNP Paribas pleaded guilty in a New York state court to falsify business records and conspiracy in connection with the forgeries. Also expected to plead guilty in federal court for violating laws against money laundering. He agreed to pay $ 8.9 billion, the largest fine ever to breach US sanctions, and substantially more than the previous record of $ 1.9 billion. BNP Paribas is also banned for one year under the application agreement of certain transactions dominated by the US dollar. The penalties exceed the bank's annual revenues of 6.4 billion US dollars and the $ 1.1 billion previously allocated to anticipated fines.

    Failure of banks to cooperate with multi-year investigations is given as a significant factor in the size of fines. In addition, BNP Paribas continues to process transactions approved after the investigation begins. About 30 employees left the bank as a result of the investigation. According to the FBI New York Field Office and Chief Richard Weber of the Internal Revenue Service-Criminal Investigation (IRS-CI) "BNPP deliberately ignores the law and provides rogue states, and Sudan in particular, with vital access to the global financial system, without the law to protect and support terrorists and persecute their own people.The sentence today shows that financial institutions will be severely punished but precisely for violating the laws of sanctions and risking our national security interests. "

    After the fines are announced, the BNP says it will be "okay" and it has a "comprehensive plan" to avoid similar violations in the future. The company's shares, which have fallen 12% since news of the first investigation leaked, rose 4% on the announcement. To comply with the ban on transactions, BNP Paribas will use third parties to remove US transactions. Standard & amp; Poor's said it was reviewing the bank's financial status in light of fines and a penalty for a possible downgrade.

    Russian President Vladimir Putin is accused without providing supporting evidence that the US government used the case to punish France for selling the Mistral amphibious assault ship to Russia. He said large fines and imposition of sanctions on French banks were a result of US displeasure with France's decision not to stop selling. Former European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet earlier said that large fines are unfair or comparable to violations and could disrupt the global banking system.

    152 million risk management affairs

    FAZ Germany, FOCUS, Bloomberg, and French newspaper Les Echos published an article about 152 Million EUR wrong (wrong trade) in which BNP Paribas Arbitrage allegedly involved. The bank has sold securities for 326,400 EUR to Armin S. investors but the value of securities is 163 Million EUR according to the bank.

    According to the article, the error remained unconscious for several days. The BNP has even confirmed the original price. However, trade cancellations are only possible until the following day in accordance with the prevailing trade rules.

    Michael Lusk published an article about the case under the heading " Does the bank's internal control system work? "

    Armin S.'s lawyer, Mario BÃÆ'¶gelein states in an article that the bank does not recognize this error should not be protected by law.

    The Financial Times published an article in March 2018 on a case with the title "BNP Paribas failed to trade books in Germany for a week" . They cite an internal document showing why an error has not been detected: apparently, the BNP forgot to order all trade that took place in structured products in Germany from December 2, 2015 to December 9, 2015. The Financial Times estimates that 8500 trades may have affected. This is also a question if banks have hedged their positions if the trade has not been booked. Armin S. is quoted with the words "I do not think it's fair if on the one hand, BNP wants to rely on legal protection clauses but on the other hand they ignore all control duties imposed by the regulators - ECB, BaFin and AMF - as long as one full week ".
