In June 2007, AXA Group’s Management Board decided to adopt a common European banking strategy. The deployment of this strategy led to the creation in Brussels of a European Banking Head-office: AXA Bank Europe, using the former AXA Bank Belgium’s legal structure. In 2008, AXA Life Europe Hedging Services joined AXA Bank Europe to provide financial engineering competencies to insurance companies of the Group and AXA Bank Europe. In 2009, the Hungarian Ella Bank becomes a branch of AXA Bank Europe. The same year, a branch is launched in Switzerland and one year later, in Czech Republic. In 2011, a branch is launched in Slovakia. As of January 1st, 2012, activities have ceased in Switzerland.
AXA Bank Europe’s strategic decisions are taken by its Board of Directors, headed by Jacques de Vaucleroy and managed through its Management Board, headed by Jef Van In.
