Domestic Markets then included the French retail banking, Banca Nazionale del Lavoro in Italy, BNP Paribas Fortis in Belgium and BGL BNP Paribas in Luxembourg as well as three specialised business lines (Arval, BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions and BNP Paribas Personal Investors). International Financial Services (IFS) included BNP Paribas Personal Finance, International Retail Banking, BNP Paribas Cardif, BNP Paribas Wealth Management, BNP Paribas Investment Partners and BNP Paribas Real Estate. BNP Paribas was named World’s Best Bank, Best Bank in France, Best Bank in Luxembourg, Best Bank in Western Europe and Best Bank for Wealth Management in Western Europe in Euromoney Awards for Excellence 2016.

BNP Paribas USA

The company first opened its doors in the United States in the late 1800s. Following the sale of its United States retail banking subsidiaries, its business there is centred on corporate and institutional clients and covers securities services, treasury and advisory solutions, asset management, wealth management and real estate services. Bank of the West and First Hawaiian Bank (oldest bank in Hawaii), which together served approximately 3.5 million customers through over 650 branches in 20 Western and Midwestern states and Guam and Saipan, have both been divested. BancWest Corporation, a BNP Paribas subsidiary, sold its remaining 24,859,750 shares in First Hawaiian, Inc. on February 1, 2019, after which BNP Paribas held no stake in the company, and BMO Financial Group completed its acquisition of Bank of the West, which had nearly 1.8 million customers and more than 500 branches and offices, on February 1, 2023.
