Retail deposits across the group rose 11
percent to €81 billion in 2009, compared to a year before, while
customer loans grew 3 percent to €51 billion.
“After a loss of €3.3 billion in 2008, the
group demonstrates the profitability of its core businesses.
Refocused on its commercial franchises, in its historic markets,
Dexia will deploy [its strategy] in a still challenging
environment,” said Pierre Mariani, Dexia chief executive.
The bank said it would continue to focus
generating 60 percent of revenues from retail banking after a
restructuring deal agreed with the European Commission.
