Groupe BPCE, a major player in the successful IPO of FDJ

Natixis, together with the Banque Populaire banks and Caisses d’Epargne, led the operation in its capacity as global coordinator, playing a specific role in the retail segment.

This operation, worth nearly €1.7 billion, is the largest initial public offering organized this decade in France and the first privatization in nearly 15 years. It has attracted very strong demand from institutional investors and marks a return of interest in popular shareholding with the participation of more than 500,000 individual investors for whom nearly 40% of the transaction has been reserved.
