Let’s build something together

"At Bank of America, we are guided by a common purpose: to deliver and connect our clients with global financial solutions. Since opening our Paris office in 1953, Bank of America has been a reliable and strong partner to our French and European clients thanks to our global reach and expertise. In 2019, we demonstrated our long-term commitment to France by setting up in Paris our sales and trading hub for the European Union, offering a full suite of products spanning fixed income and equity, as well as economic, financial research and banking services.

We are determined to continue to invest and play a very active role in the promotion of a sustainable and inclusive future. Bank of America is committed to support our communities through partnerships with local charities promoting diversity and inclusion, entrepreneurship and education. We also support arts and culture programs and institutions in France."
