What you can expect from us in concrete terms:

Sharing of value added

Our managers have built our funds’ performance by paying close attention to the “value of things” for more than 30 years. This is how they create the value that we share year after year.

Sharing of interests

The alignment of interests between clients and fund managers is at the heart of La Financière de l'Echiquier's concerns and is guaranteed in particular by the indexation of fund managers' remuneration to the performance of the funds and that of LFDE.

Sharing of know-how

Information is regularly provided in a transparent manner. More than 80 annual events provide further opportunities to share in-depth expertise with our clients and partners.

The Groupe LBP AM Foundation

Created nearly 20 years ago to structure LFDE’s philanthropic approach by redistributing part of the management fees of certain funds, the Foundation, which became the LBP AM Group Foundation in 2024, continues its activities in the fields of education, social inclusion and mental health.
