Parent Banks
Newedge is a joint venture with equal ownership by Crédit Agricole CIB and Société Générale, two of the world’s largest financial groups. Together, the two banks provide Newedge with a solid equity base and lend support via the strength of their balance sheets and credit ratings. Newedge is empowered to act independently from the trading activities of its parent banks, thus minimizing potential sources of conflict of interest.
