BNP Paribas was one of the first banks to start a dialogue with
India in 1860 when we began operations in Calcutta. In those days,
we were known as the Comptoir National d’Escompte de Paris
(CNEP). Today, BNP Paribas is the second oldest foreign bank on
Indian soil and is positioned amongst the leading Corporate banks
in India. We have since spread our branches to eight key metros
& mini metros and widened and enriched our product repertoire.
.
This historical association with India from her independence
to liberalization has given us at BNP Paribas an unparalleled
experience of the Indian economy as we have witnessed her grow
at close quarters.
We bring to the table this rich experience coupled with the varied
expertise that we have gained across the world. We also pride
ourselves as being a truly “bankable” bank. Our integrity
consciousness and commitment to our business in India bailed us
out of the ‘cotton crisis’ in 1865, protected us from
crashing during the depression of 1929-32 and again during the
Second World War in 1940, and finally kept us out of the infamous
scam of 1992.
Today, many of India’s top Corporates – both domestic
and multinationals bank on us to meet their specialized corporate
banking requirements. Besides, through our Private Banking offer
we have built lasting relationships with select high networth
individuals in the country.
While we are proud of our deep-rooted history in this country
and the strong relationships that we have forged through our values
we are continually changing to proactively prepare for the challenges
that lie ahead.
At BNP Paribas, we are committed to building relationships by
adding value to your banking through structured solutions to meet
your specific needs.
