BIL opens a private banking branch in France

Banque Internationale à Luxembourg steps up its activities in the French market by setting up a private banking branch in Paris. The local team will be working closely with the group’s centre of expertise in Luxembourg.

A few months in the making, BIL’s French branch is now fully operational. Located in Paris, the branch offers a bespoke range of services to a customer base of private clients and wealthy families, entrepreneurs and family offices domiciled in France.

Staffed by experienced private bankers, the French branch will be headed by Gabriel Bendayan. They will work closely with the BIL private banking and corporate banking teams in Luxembourg to offer financing and investment solutions, and the Bank’s top-notch expertise in wealth planning and international structuring.

Jeffrey Dentzer, CEO of Banque Internationale à Luxembourg, commented:
It is one of our strategic priorities to expand our international wealth management business. Opening our branch in Paris is an essential stage in our development in France, a key market that we know well and where we can bring considerable added value to our future clients.

Claude Eyschen, Head of Wealth Management at Banque Internationale à Luxembourg, added:

Thanks to the close collaboration with our wealth management and corporate finance experts, the French team will be able to offer our new clients our range of customised BIL services. Whether it is to manage their personal wealth or grow their business, our clients will enjoy all the benefits of BIL’s know-how.

The inauguration of the French branch is an essential piece of BIL’s 2025-2030 strategy which aims to develop its private banking business in several key European markets for which it already has extensive knowledge.

  • to step up the services it provides in its commercial banking activities, be it wealth management, corporate and institutional banking, or retail banking;
  • to enhance customer experience by improving operational efficiency, integrating cutting-edge technologies and offering a wide range of services online;
  • and to continue supporting the economic development of Luxembourg by acting as a solid bank that can be relied upon by all its clients and partners
