History Crédit Lyonnais had been present in Egypt since the 1980s. In September 2006, the group decided to merge its local operations (under the Calyon Egypt entity) with the Egyptian American Bank. The Crédit Agricole group gradually increased its stake to reach approximately 65% in 2026.
In April 2022, the French group signed an agreement to sell its majority stake (78.7%) in Crédit du Maroc to the Moroccan group Holmarcom (owned by the Bensalah family). After withdrawing from Morocco, the group chose to strengthen its investments in Egypt.
