To have an investor who can be a precursor in promising sectors of activity, new or immature, to be encouraged but which do not yet attract private investors;

Deposit and Consigment Fund (DCF) is a new type of public investor, with public-interest missions in support of public policies conducted by the State and local authorities in the field of development. It is an institutional investor and a long-term lender;
To fulfil this mission, the DCF needs more long-term resources that will enable it to become a benchmark financial support for real estate development and acquisition, infrastructure financing, as well as low-cost financing, social housing and land use planning.
As a Caisse de dépôt, we must have abundant and long-term resources to enable it to play its role as a long-term investor effectively and to support public policies effectively;
The CDC business model is based on the structure of a long liability to avoid the constraints of access to liquidity or asset volatility, which implies:
The financial model responds to the need to allocate liability resources optimally according to their maturity to uses with corresponding maturity, according to standard orthodoxy;
This optimal allocation of resources makes it possible to maximise returns;
As a development institution with a long-term financing obligation, it goes without saying that the volume of long-term resources must significantly outweigh short-term resources, and CDC has just reversed its balance sheet structure: long-term resources, which in 2012 represented only 30% of total resources, now represent 52% of the Total Balance Sheet.
Affirm our role in boosting the financial policy of the State, as an investor and long-term lender;
Strengthen the financial base;
Secure investments and strengthen customer confidence;
Position itself on sectors identified as strategic, promising and priority sectors;
Ensure financing for priority sectors, particularly social housing and SMEs;
Ensure the management of mandates entrusted by the State (infrastructure, environment, etc.);
Continuously adapt the methods of intervention and the business lines to the economic challenges.
Key figures for year 2018 of the Caisse des Dépôts are as follows:
Performance is our credo in our approach to producing the wealth that guarantees our prosperity.
CitizenshipThis leitmotiv guides our action to support public policies by ensuring respect for people, regulations and the environment
