On June 15, the carve-out IPO of ALD from parent Societe Generale was successfully completed, raising $1.3bn for the bank, in what is the nation’s largest carve-out IPO in 3 years, when Coface was spun off from NATIXIS for $1.3bn in 2014. The deal is also France’s largest IPO since Amundi Group went public in November 2015.
