Caceis

What Caceis does

CACEIS is a Paris-headquartered banking group specializing in asset servicing for institutional and corporate clients, operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Crédit Agricole S.A. since July 2025. The company held €5.9 trillion in assets under custody and €3.7 trillion in assets under administration as of 31 December 2025, supported by approximately 7,000 employees across 17+ countries in Europe, North America, Latin America, and Asia. Its client base is concentrated among asset managers, insurance companies, pension funds, banks/brokers, and corporate issuers, with relationships such as CNP Assurances (since 2005), Amundi, and Lincolnshire County Council Pension Fund (a £3.5bn mandate).

The company's product surface spans the full asset servicing value chain: custody and depositary banking, fund administration (UCITS and alternatives), transfer agency, execution/clearing, securities finance, forex, middle/back office outsourcing, and issuer services. Core technology platforms include ATLAS (integrated front-to-back servicing model), NOVA (cloud-native microservices-based transfer agency platform launched May 2026), OLIS (web client portal), TEEPI (data hub and ETF servicing), and the AI Factory (AI/ML innovation program integrating Nephelai for middle-office trade processing). CACEIS has also built a digital asset capability stack: it is the first major French bank authorized under EU MiCA, holds Digital Asset Service Provider status in France, Luxembourg, and Spain, and operates fund unit tokenization infrastructure on the Ethereum public blockchain.

CACEIS earns revenue through a mix of recurring subscription-based fees (custody, fund administration, transfer agency, depositary), transaction-based fees (execution, clearing, securities finance), and managed service / professional service fees (middle office outsourcing, issuer services). Pricing is custom-negotiated per client relationship, tied to assets under custody, transaction volumes, and service scope, typically under multi-year contracts. Distribution is relationship-driven enterprise sales with dedicated regional coverage teams across Europe and North America, supplemented by event-driven lead generation (e.g., Diamond sponsor of FundForum International) and a fintech marketplace (CACEIS Connect Store) that integrates third-party solutions such as Clarity AI (ESG) and Arendt (regulatory consulting).
