 MESSAGES FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

A certain number of activities performed well – for example, structured fi nance and investment banking. Others, such as capital markets activities, suffered more. Nonetheless securitisation, cash management and foreign exchange continued to be satisfactory after having experienced exceptional conditions in 2009. Crédit Agricole CIB demonstrated its ability to combine competitiveness with risk control over the long term and to assume the challenge of Crédit Agricole’s ambitions in corporate and investment banking.

With its areas of recognised expertise, a base of large clients and fi nancing abilities backed by the solidity of the Group, Crédit Agricole CIB has defi ned three strategic directions for development for 2014. The development of its fi nancing and investment banking activities will be selective and will be supported by a rigorous allocation of resources within the framework of the controlled management of funds, while integrating the new regulatory constraints now imposed on banks. As a result our model will be built on local fi nancing activities with areas of expertise confi rmed on a global scale. The capital markets and investment banking activities will adopt the priorities of the fi nancing activities that 2010 is the likely end of the fi nancial crisis for Crédit Agricole CIB: depend on geography, target clients, key sectors and access to the refocusing and development plan launched in 2008 led to liquidity. the orderly and controlled withdrawal from those activities that no longer correspond to the Group’s target risk profi le.

This change in accounting option is in accordance with the ac- counting standard IAS 8, with a retrospective application. The The standards and interpretations are identical to those used main effects of this change are provided in note 1.5. and described in the Group fi nancial statements at 31 Decem- ber 2009, except for the change in option for the recognition of actuarial gains and losses on the post-employment-benefi ts of the defi ned-benefi t plans. According to IAS 19, actuarial gains and losses on defi ned-benefi t plans can be recognised: • either in profi t and loss in their entirety • or in profi t and loss for a portion determined according to the « corridor » approach • or in other comprehensive income (shareholders’ equity) in their entirety.

The application of these new provisions did not produce any material impact over the accounting period, except for the revisions of stan- dards IAS 27 and IFRS 3. The prospective application of revised IAS 27 and IFRS 3 to acquisitions effective as of 1 January 2010 has resulted in a change of accoun- ting method for the Group. The main issues are: • the initial recognition of non-controlling interests • the acquisition-related costs • certain transactions must be recognised separately from the business combination • the methods of recognising a business combination achieved in stages or partial disposals resulting in loss of control • the allocation of price adjustment clauses, when they are fi nancial instruments, in accordance with the provisions of IAS 39. During the year 2010, Crédit Agricole CIB did not carry out any signifi cant transactions that are liable to be concerned by this change of accounting method.

 NOTE 9: RECLASSIFICATIONS

Crédit Agricole CIB approach

Reclassifi cations from « fi nancial assets held for trading » were decided then carried out in accordance with the conditions set out by the amendment to IAS 39 adopted by the European Union on 15 October 2008. They were recorded in their new accounting category at their fair value on the reclassifi cation date.

Reclassifi cation done by Crédit Agricole CIB

Pursuant to the amendment to IAS 39 published and adopted by the European Union in October 2008, in 2010 Crédit Agricole CIB made reclassifi cations as allowed by the amendment to IAS 39, as it did during the previous years. Information on these reclassifi cations is pro- vided below.

 Reclassifi cations: type, reason and amount

In 2010, Crédit Agricole CIB reclassifi ed certain fi nancial assets for which its management’s intention changed from « Financial assets at fair value through profi t and loss held for trading » to the « Loans and receivables » category. It now intends to hold these fi nancial assets for the foreseeable future and not to sell them in the period. These reclassifi cations, which were made during 2010, relate to syndication transactions. For the assets reclassifi ed in 2010, the table below shows the value at the reclassifi cation date and the value at closing date. It also details the value as at 31 December 2010 for the assets that have been reclassifi ed before 2010 and that are still on the CACIB balance sheet at the end of 2010:

 STATUTORY AUDITORS’ REPORT ON THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Year ended 31 December 2010

This is a free translation into English of the Statutory Auditors’ report issued in the French language and is provided solely for the conve- nience of English speaking readers. The Statutory Auditors’ report includes information specifi cally required by French law in all audit reports, whether qualifi ed or not, and this is presented below the opinion on the consolidated fi nancial statements. This information includes an explanatory paragraph dis- cussing the auditors’ assessments of certain signifi cant accounting and auditing matters. These assessments were considered for the purpose of issuing an audit opinion on the consolidated fi nancial statements taken as a whole and not to provide separate assurance on individual account captions or on information taken outside of the consolidated fi nancial statements. This report should be read in conjunction with, and construed in accordance with French law and professional auditing standards appli- cable in France.

To the Shareholders,

In compliance with the assignment entrusted to us by your Shareholders’ Meeting, we hereby submit our report for the year ended 31 December 2010 on: • our audit of Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank’s consolidated fi nancial statements as attached to this report, • the substantiation of our opinion, • the specifi c procedures and disclosures required by law. The consolidated fi nancial statements are the responsibility of the Board of Directors. Our role is to express an opinion on these fi nancial statements based on our audit.

OPINION ON THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS We have conducted our audit in accordance with professional standards applicable in France. Those standards require that we plan and perform our audit to obtain reasonable assurance that the consolidated fi nancial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit consists of examining, on the basis of tests and other selection methods, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the conso- lidated fi nancial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and signifi cant estimates made in the prepa- ration of the fi nancial statements and evaluating their overall presentation. We believe that the evidence we have collected is relevant and suffi cient for the formation of our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated fi nancial statements give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, fi nancial position and results of the companies and entities included in the consolidated Group in accordance with the IFRS standards as adopted in the European Union. Without prejudice to the opinion expressed above, we draw your attention to the note 1.1 to the fi nancial statements, which describes the change in accounting method relating to actuarial gains and losses on the post-employment-benefi ts of the defi ned-benefi t plans as well as the new standards and interpretations applied, inter alia revised IAS 27 « Consolidated and parent-company fi nancial statements » and IFRS 3 «Business combinations ».

SUBSTANTIATION OF OUR OPINION Pursuant to the provisions of Article L.823-9 of the Code de Commerce [French Commercial Code] concerning the substantiation of our opinion, we bring to your attention the following items:

212 SHELF-REGISTRATION DOCUMENT CRÉDIT AGRICOLE CIB 2010 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 4

Accounting estimates • The Group books impairment reserves to cover credit risks which are inherent to its business activities. We have reviewed the arrange- ments put in place by management to identify and evaluate these risks and to determine the amount of impairment it considers necessary, and we have verifi ed that these accounting estimates were based on documented methods that complied with the principles described in note 1.3 to the consolidated fi nancial statements. • As stated in note 1.3 and 10.2 to the fi nancial statements, your Group uses internal models to assess the fair value of certain fi nancial instruments not listed in an active market. Our work entailed reviewing the control system applied to the models used, the underlying assumptions and the methods for taking into account the risks associated with such instruments. • As stated in note 1.3 to the fi nancial statements, your Group has made estimates in order to take into account changes in its own credit risk into the measurement of debt issues recognised at fair value through profi t and loss. We have verifi ed that the parameters used for this purpose were appropriate. • As stated in note 1.3 and 2.5 to the fi nancial statements, your Group carried out impairment tests on goodwill. We have reviewed the condition of implementation of these tests as well as the main parameters and assumptions used and we have satisfi ed ourselves that the presentation in the notes to the fi nancial statements is appropriate. • The Group has made a number of other accounting estimates as explained in note 1.3 to the consolidated fi nancial statements, notably re- garding the valuation and impairment of non-consolidated equity securities, the pension provision and future employee benefi ts, reserves for operational risks, reserves for legal risks and deferred tax assets. Our work consisted of examining the methods and assumptions used and verifying that the resulting accounting estimates are based on documented methods in accordance with the principles described in note 1.3. to the fi nancial statements.

Our assessments were made, taken as a whole, and therefore assisted us in reaching our unqualifi ed opinion as expressed in the fi rst part of this report.

SPECIFIC VERIFICATION We also carried out, in accordance with professional standards applicable in France, the specifi c verifi cation, required by law, of information relating to the Group in the management report. We are satisfi ed that the information is fairly stated and agrees with the consolidated fi nancial statements.

 NOTE 28: OPERATIONS IN NON-COOPERATIVE COUNTRIES OR TERRITORIES (Operations in non-cooperative countries or territories within the meaning of Article 238-0 A of the French General Tax Code).

Investment process Projects to carry out acquisitions and disposals by all entities directly or indirectly controlled by Crédit Agricole S.A. must meet the strategic guidelines defi ned by the Board of Directors of Crédit Agricole S.A. and applied by the Group’s general management. A Group procedural memo sets out the framework for intervention for the business lines and central functions of Crédit Agricole S.A. As such, the Group Finance Division and Strategy and Development Division are consulted to ensure that the business and fi nancial results expected from the project are met. They also determine whether the proposed transaction is a viable opportunity and whether it is consistent with the Group’s strategic guidelines. The Risk Management and Permanent Controls function and of the Compliance and Legal Affairs Departments are brought in to issue recommendations that fall within the scope of their respective responsibilities. This principle is applied across the subsidiaries, in respect of new products and new business activities, via special Committees.

Risk monitoring procedures The following entities are included in the internal control scope of the Crédit Agricole S.A. Group and, as such, are covered by the Group’s non-compliance risk prevention and control procedures (which more specifi cally include rules on prevention of money-laundering and terrorism fi nancing). These are described in the Chairman’s Report to the Board of Directors in the Crédit Agricole S.A. shelf-registration document (where applicable).

 AUDITORS’ GENERAL REPORT ON THE PARENT-COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Year ended 31 December 2010

This is a free translation into English of the Statutory Auditors’ report issued in the French language and is provided solely for the conve- nience of English speaking readers. The Statutory Auditors’ report includes information specifi cally required by French law in all audit reports, whether qualifi ed or not, and this is presented below the opinion on the consolidated fi nancial statements. This information includes an explanatory paragraph dis- cussing the auditors’ assessments of certain signifi cant accounting and auditing matters. These assessments were considered for the purpose of issuing an audit opinion on the consolidated fi nancial statements taken as a whole and not to provide separate assurance on individual account captions or on information taken outside of the consolidated fi nancial statements. This report should be read in conjunction with, and construed in accordance with French law and professional auditing standards appli- cable in France.

To the Shareholders,

In accordance with the terms of our appointment at your Annual Meeting, we hereby submit our report for the year ended 31 December 2010 on: • our audit of Crédit agricole CIB’s parent-company fi nancial statements as attached to this report, • the substantiation of our opinion, • the specifi c procedures and disclosures required by law. The parent-company fi nancial statements have been approved by the Board of Directors. Our role is to express an opinion on these fi nancial statements based on our audit.

I. OPINION ON THE PARENT-COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

We have conducted our audit in accordance with professional standards applicable in France. Those standards require that we plan and perform our audit to obtain reasonable assurance that the parent-company fi nancial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit consists of examining, on the basis of tests and other selection methods, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the parent- company fi nancial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and signifi cant estimates made in the preparation of the fi nancial statements and evaluating their overall presentation. We believe that the evidence we have collected is relevant and suffi cient for the formation of our opinion. In our opinion, the parent-company fi nancial statements give a true and fair view, according to French accounting principles, of the results of operations for the year ended 31 December 2010 and of the company’s fi nancial situation and assets at that date. Without prejudice to the opinion expressed above, we draw your attention to note 1 to the fi nancial statements, which describes the change in accounting methods and presentation relating to new texts and regulations applicable from 2010.

II. SUBSTANTIATION OF OUR OPINION

Pursuant to the provisions of Article L.823-9 of the Code de Commerce [French Commercial Code] concerning the substantiation of our opinion, we bring to your attention the following items: Accounting estimates • As indicated in note 1 to the fi nancial statements, the company books impairment reserves to cover credit risks relating which are inherent to its business activities. Given the specifi c circumstances arising from the fi nancial crisis, we have reviewed the arrangements put in place by management to identify and evaluate these risks and to determine the amount of impairment it considers necessary, and we have verifi ed that these accounting estimates were based on documented methods that complied with the principles described in note 1 to the fi nancial statements.

250 SHELF-REGISTRATION DOCUMENT CRÉDIT AGRICOLE CIB 2010 PARENT-COMPANY STATEMENTS 5

• Your company uses internal models to assess the fair value of certain fi nancial instruments not listed in an active market. Our work entailed reviewing the control system applied to the models used, the underlying assumptions and the methods for taking into account the risks associated with such instruments. • As a usual part of the process of preparing fi nancial statements, the company’s management has made a number of other accounting estimates relating in particular to the valuation of investments in participating interests and other long-term investments , the measurement of recognised pension liabilities and provisions for legal disputes. We reviewed the assumptions made and verifi ed that these accounting estimates were based on documented methods that complied with the principles described in note 1 to the fi nancial statements. Our assessments were made in the context of our audit of the parent-company fi nancial statements, taken as a whole, and therefore assisted us in reaching our unqualifi ed opinion as expressed in the fi rst part of this report.

III. SPECIFIC PROCEDURES AND DISCLOSURES

We also carried out the specifi c verifi cations required by law, in accordance with professional standards applicable in France We have non comments regarding the fair presentation and consistency with the parent company fi nancial statements of the information provided in the Board of Director’s Management Report, and in the documents addressed to the shareholders with respect to the Compa- ny’s fi nancial position and the fi nancial statements. We verifi ed the consistency of the information provided pursuant to article L. 225-102-1 of the Code de Commerce pertaining to com- pensation and benefi ts in kind paid to corporate offi cers and to commitments made to corporate offi cers, with the information contained in the accounts or with the data used to draw up these accounts and, where applicable, with the information collected by your Company from companies that control your Company or are controlled by it. On the basis of our work, we attest to the fairness and accuracy of this information.
