The Group’s performance in 2007 illustrates the robustness of our business model based on a careful balance between retail banking, which accounts for 50% of our earnings, and asset management and corporate and investment banking, which represent one-sixth and one-third respectively. The Group has been rated AA+ by Standard & Poor’s, and this fi nancial strength, coupled with our stringent risk policy, has gone a long way to helping us weather the storm. BNP Paribas’ overall performance is also enhanced by the high standards we have set ourselves in terms of corporate and social responsibility. BNP Paribas Group was ranked no. 1 among Top Renewable Financial Advisers in 2007, maintaining its position as one of the world leaders in renewable energy fi nancing. An agreement on microcredit with the French Development Agency has led to some 420,000 borrowers (78% women), or a total of two million people including family mem- bers, receiving microloans as a result of facilities that we have granted to micro-fi nance institutions. Growing recognition for our corporate and social responsibility policy means that the BNP Paribas share is now among the most popular in European SRI funds(1). Our Group also received a corporate social and environmental responsibility award in the United States in recognition of our employees’ commitment to reconstruction pro- jects in New Orleans. It is with great pleasure, therefore, that we present this Sustainable Development (1) Vigeo - Avanzi SRI Research Report, which puts forward our corporate social responsibility policy and achievements survey, October 2007 / Capital for 2007.

Clients – corporates, fi nancial institutions and investors – are at the heart of BNP Paribas CIB’s organisation. Coverage executives are focused on delivering the best mix of services in support of their clients’ strategies, calling on specialists in derivatives, capital markets and specialised fi nance around the globe to deliver world class bespoke and innovative solutions. In 2007, BNP Paribas CIB delivered exceptional results and was successful in weathering the credit liquidity squeeze of the second half of the year through a diversified and client-centric business model which showed resilience and sustainability compared to most of its competitors. Through constant innovation and the drive, commitment and excellence of its teams, BNP Paribas CIB gained increasing industry recognition in 2007 with a fl urry of awards for its capital markets and fi nancing businesses, as well as for its Corporate Finance Division in France and in Asia.
