Credit Agricole (Suisse) SA was founded on March 19, 2005 as a result of the merger of Credit Lyonnais (Suisse) SA and Credit Agricole Indosuez (Suisse) SA. The history of the bank in Switzerland goes back more than 130 years since Credit Lyonnais started its operations in Geneva. However, in general, Credit Agricole (Suisse) SA has been present on the Russian market for more than 15 years. At that time being a branch of the Canadian Bank CIBC, it provided services to customers from Eastern Europe. Subsequently this department was purchased by Credit Lyonnais Bank
