reported a smaller-than-expected 22% slide in first-quarter net income on Friday, as profits on equity derivative sales offset more weakness at its retail bank and in fixed-income trading.
French banks including SocGen have not benefited as much from the rise in rates because of the high cost of deposits in the country. Their shares have underperformed, although analysts expect the lenders to do better when rates fall.

It cost SocGen 300 million euros in the first quarter, on top of 1.6 billion euros in 2023.
