It is all change at the top of France’s overall best-performing table, with BNP Paribas, the country’s second-largest bank by Tier 1 capital, wresting the crown from Société Générale (SocGen).
While SocGen has fallen to fourth spot in this year’s overall best-performing table, BNP Paribas has moved up three spots to first, outperforming its four largest peers in growth, profitability, asset quality, and return on risk.
