The Dexia Group is in orderly resolution as a bank until 31 December 2023. In July 2023, the Group applied for the withdrawal of the banking and investment services authorisations of Dexia (formerly Dexia Crédit Local), which was approved by the European Central Bank in December 2023, with an implementation date of 1 January 2024.
Since 1 January 2024, Dexia (formerly Dexia Crédit Local) has therefore continued its orderly resolution as a non-bank.
Dexia offers great diversity and a real transversality of business lines and missions which enrich the professional experience of its members of staff.
Joining Dexia is a promise to evolve in a dynamic environment and to stimulate your career by developing new skills!
