Caisse des Dépôts Group invests to safeguard the country's ability to respond autonomously to its changing strategic needs. It finances the economy over the long term and acts in synergy with public policy to support key sectors of the French economy.
Contributing to the sovereignty of essential infrastructure
To contribute to France's transformation and resilience, the Group has made strengthening sovereignty and economic development one of its strategic objectives.
By investing in renewable energies and low-carbon mobility, and through the companies in which it is a shareholder, the Group helps to strengthen France's energy sovereignty.
It leverages all its expertise in terms of financing, support and key services for manufacturers to accelerate the sector’s decarbonisation and strengthen our sovereignty in strategic sectors such as defence, health, food and electronics. To reduce France's dependence in strategic areas, the Group is also working to develop the digital economy and infrastructure within an autonomous framework of trust and security (cloud, data/AI, cybersecurity). It also helps to maintain the structure of European capital markets to safeguard France's financial sovereignty.
