On 20 November 2025, the Banque Extérieure d’Algérie (BEA) inaugurated its first three branches in France, located in Paris-Courcelles, Saint-Denis, and Marseille, targeting the Algerian diaspora. The branches offer tailored services for individuals and investors, supported by a multilingual team fluent in French, Arabic, English, Spanish, and Portuguese. BEA plans three additional branches in 2026 in Bordeaux, Lille, and Lyon, aiming to serve 100,000 to 120,000 clients and strengthen financial ties between Algeria and France.
