(Boursier.com) — Crédit Mutuel Arkéa announces the launch of a new generation savings solution, offered to customers of Crédit Mutuel de Bretagne, Crédit Mutuel du Sud-Ouest and Fortuneo sensitive to the environmental impact of their investments.
Autofocus Transition Climat October 2022 is the first formula fund to obtain, in the French banking landscape, a label which attests to its responsible commitment.

This fund is open to subscription in life insurance, securities account and PEA.
As part of its Transitions 2024 strategic plan, Crédit Mutuel Arkéa has set itself the objective of increasing its range of responsible products and services. The need to act to respond to environmental and societal challenges is indeed a conviction that the group shares with many of its customers and members, wishing, for example, to give meaning to their savings, beyond seeking financial performance.
An innovative and committed savings solution
Autofocus Transition Climat October 2022 is the first French structured fund to obtain a label, the “Towards Sustainability” label, which attests to the responsible commitment of the fund and the seriousness of its approach. Investing in this fund makes it possible to contribute to a transition towards a low-carbon economy, by investing directly in companies aligned with the requirements of the Paris Agreement for the climate, and strongly contributing to the development of the French economy. The fund’s benchmark index (S&P France 40 Paris-Aligned Transition ESG 5% Decrement Index) is thus made up of the 40 major French companies that are the most virtuous in terms of decarbonization.
Frédéric Laurent, Deputy Managing Director of Crédit Mutuel Arkéa, in charge of the Retail Customer Division comments: “Crédit Mutuel Arkéa is proud to offer this new offer to its customers, within its Crédit Mutuel de Bretagne and Sud-Ouest networks and of its Fortuneo online bank, which, beyond returns, gives meaning to their savings and contributes to tackling climate challenges.This innovation shows how important it is for the Crédit Mutuel Arkéa group to offer committed in line with its Purpose.”
