How much of a wholesale bank’s prominence — a bank providing commercial, corporate, and/or investment banking services — can be traced to the tangible numbers of the balance sheet, the income statement, and stock performance? A lot … but far from all.

Natixis — The Winning Banking Formula presents a fact-based analysis of Natixis’ wholesale banking performance, based on insights from a large group (4,039) of Fortune Global 500 and Forbes Global 2000 executives and senior managers. It examines the bank’s performance across six key success factors: client-centricity, external engagement, competitiveness, leadership and employee quality, innovativeness, and business model efficiency and effectiveness (e.g., Natixis’ reliability as a business partner, its agility, client responsiveness, and resilience).

Natixis’ reputation acts like a powerful business glue — not to mention the status that comes with it.

This research report presents the ‘Data Only Edition’ for Natixis — Natixis’ research results. For those seeking an even deeper understanding of the drivers behind excellence in wholesale banking, seen through the lens of clients, I strongly recommend reviewing the ‘Extended Edition’ or ‘Extended + Edition’ of the Goldman Sachs report, Goldman Sachs — The Blueprint for Leadership.

Ranked first in this extensive, multi-year study, Goldman Sachs received the most nominations, offering valuable insights for every leading bank — financial behemoth or boutique bank. While each bank faces unique challenges, the in-depth analysis of Goldman Sachs’ performance provides invaluable lessons applicable across the industry.
