Slawomir Krupa, Chief Executive Officer of Société Générale, was elected President of the European Banking Federation on 4 February 2025, taking office on 1 March 2025.
Krupa has led Société Générale since May 2023, when he succeeded Frédéric Oudéa.
THE EUROPEAN BANKING FEDERATION'S ROLE
The European Banking Federation represents banking associations across 32 European countries, serving as the principal voice of the European banking sector in dialogue with European Union institutions, regulators and policymakers. The EBF engages with the European Commission, the European Parliament and supervisors including the European Central Bank on legislative and regulatory matters that shape the operating environment for banks across the continent.
The position of EBF President is typically held by a serving chief executive of a major European bank. Krupa, who succeeds Deutsche Bank chief executive Christian Sewing, will take up the post on 1 March 2025.
POLICY DOSSIERS
The implementation of Basel IV standards through the Capital Requirements Regulation 3, ongoing discussions around the European Deposit Insurance Scheme, the trajectory of ECB supervisory expectations and the EU's capital markets union agenda are among the significant dossiers on which the federation actively engages with policymakers.
Société Générale operates across retail banking in France, corporate and investment banking across global markets, and a range of financial services including insurance and equipment financing.
