Georges Pauget, Chief Executive Officer of Crédit Agricole S.A., added: "Crédit Agricole S.A. has fully integrated the lessons learnt from the crisis and has adapted its business model to meet the needs of the real economy. This is not only a relevant but sound strategy for the Group. All our historic business lines are producing good results which allows us to deal with the impact of the current crisis. Retail banking, insurance, asset management and consumer finance delivered very good performances, despite the adverse economic climate. "
