environment

Geographical risks Risk factors

RCI Banque has operations in several countries. It is therefore faced with risks linked to activities pursued internationally. These risks include, in particular, economic and financial instability, and changes in government, social and central bank policies. RCI Banque’s future results may be negatively impacted by one of these factors. Management procedures and principles RCI Banque’s geographical locations are chosen, in the framework of its growth strategy, to support manufacturers, and take into account the risks of instability which are inherent to a global approach. The scope of the financial policy extends to all of RCI Banque’s consolidated subsidiaries, including those whose refinancing is not centralized. Subsidiaries located in a country outside the euro zone for which RCI Banque deems the currency transfer and convertibility risk to be significant (in particular Brazil and Argentina) are generally refinanced locally to limit any cross-border risk or is subject to specific insurance ( e.g. in Russia).
