About NBK France SA

NBK France SA is a wholly owned French subsidiary of National Bank of Kuwait S.A.K.P., operating as a credit institution in Paris under the supervision of the Autorité de contrôle prudentiel et de résolution and the Banque de France. The bank focuses on relationship-driven services for corporates, financial institutions, and private clients with cross-border needs between Europe and the Middle East, offering current and term deposit accounts in major currencies, SEPA and international payments, foreign exchange and money market placements, trade finance (letters of credit, collections, and guarantees), cash management, and tailored lending including working capital and real estate financing. Investment and wealth services, where provided, are delivered under applicable French and EU rules such as MiFID II. Onboarding follows standard French and EU KYC/AML frameworks, with pricing, minimum balances, and lending terms typically set case by case rather than through a public retail tariff. Delivery is centered on dedicated relationship managers and online channels for account information and payment initiation; the institution does not operate a broad retail branch network in France. Eligible deposits are covered by the French deposit guarantee scheme (Fonds de Garantie des Dépôts et de Résolution) up to EUR 100,000 per depositor per institution, with additional temporary high-balance protection in defined situations, and certain investment instruments may fall under the FGDR securities guarantee up to EUR 70,000; coverage conditions are set by law. The entity is not positioned as a day-to-day bank for the mass market in France, and product availability, currencies, and service levels can vary by client profile and jurisdiction, so prospective clients generally proceed via a formal inquiry and documentation review.
