On the 31st of December 2025, BNP Paribas asset management activities (AXA Investment Managers (AXA IM), BNP Paribas Real Estate Investment Management (BNPP REIM) and BNP Paribas Asset Management (BNPP AM)) merged their main legal entities under a unified structure owned by BNP Paribas Cardif. They now operate under a single brand name – BNP Paribas Asset Management. In 2025, as signatories of the Principles for Responsible Investment’s (PRI), the three entities reported on their activities independently.
From 2026 onwards, our contribution to the UN PRI assessment will be carried out in a consolidated manner for all asset management activities of BNP Paribas Asset Management, combining the activities of entities that historically (until 2025) published separate PRI assessments (namely BNP Paribas Asset Management, AXA Investment Managers, BNP Paribas REIM and CAPZA).
