In 1886 Societe Generale already opened a branch in Frankfurt - as one of the oldest foreign banks in the Main metropolis. At the Frankfurt site, Societe Generale is represented by its Global Banking & Investor Solutions (GBIS) division, one of the three pillars of the Group's diversified banking model, which combines the following business lines: Global Markets, Global Banking and Advisory, Global Transaction & Payment Services, Securities Services, Asset Management and Private Banking and the Global Business Service Unit. Société Générale Corporate & Investment Banking is a subdivision of GBIS and combines market activities, financing and advisory expertise.

Experienced, reliable market makers like Societe Generale are crucial for the successful growth of the ETF industry and all-day trading in ETFs. As a market maker, Societe Generale has two important roles in the ETF market: in the primary market, Societe Generale acts as an "Authorized Participant". On the secondary market, Societe Generale ensures the liquidity of ETF shares so that investors can buy or sell their chosen ETF at any time during the trading day - both on-exchange and off-exchange. The bank acts as Market Maker and Authorized Participant for 25 of the most established and respected ETF providers in Europe and Asia.

Societe Generale has been listed on all major securities exchanges in Europe since March 2012 and in Hong Kong since autumn 2012.
