My commitment finds its meaning in the ECE's ability to make social dialogue an essential lever. It is thanks to the coordination and solidarity of our great team, rich in its diversity beyond nationalities, professions and entities, that we keep people at the heart of the Group's decisions. This collective dynamic is more than a real driving force... it is invaluable to me.

Philippe Moine
A trade union leader at CACIB, I believe in constructive social dialogue. I had the opportunity to join the restricted European Committee where I found a competent team dedicated to serving the interests of Group colleagues.
Having a nuanced European perspective on the Group's different entities is a major asset for a good understanding of events, especially when working at CACIB, which is already heavily geared towards international business.

As a member of the European Economic Community (EEC), I wish to contribute within the CA group to shaping the future of workers' rights on a European scale. It is an honour for me to represent the businesses of my country on this subject and to bring my more than thirty years of experience to the EEC's restricted committee. It is essential to negotiate on an equal footing and always to prioritise mutual respect.

Professionally and union-wise involved within the Caisse régionale Alpes Provence, I am very sensitive to the place of people in service of the collective within a powerful group in Europe and globally. In a rapidly changing banking landscape, our duty is to support our company in its major transformation projects, while ensuring respect for individuals. I am convinced that our body is essential for our company, as it is made up of different nationalities and different professions that make up the richness and strength of our group.
