BNP Paribas has been supporting tennis for over 50 years and aims to promote tennis at every level, including championing accessibility and inclusivity, as well as community programs and professional tournaments. 

BNP Paribas is a strong believer in the power of tennis and that making it accessible will inspire and bring positive change to communities. The bank’s initiatives reflect that commitment. At the 2025 tournament, the bank will activate many local programs which focus on community engagement and support causes such as youth development and education, among others:

  • Points for Change: Launched during the 2023 French Open, the “Points for Change” campaign is now a feature at all BNP Paribas-sponsored professional tournaments, including the BNP Paribas Open. As part of the program, every point scored during these tournaments are transformed into donations which benefit local groups by promoting education and inclusion through sport. 2025 marks the second year during which proceeds from the points scored at the BNP Paribas Open will be donated to the non-profit Girls on the Run Riverside Chapter, serving Riverside and San Bernadino Counties. This results in approximately 125,000 points for the entire tennis season and a point meter is available on the BNP Paribas We Are Tennis website.

  • #FAAPointsForChange: Since 2020, BNP Paribas has supported Canadian Félix Auger-Aliassime (ATP World No. 21) in his commitment to building a better future for youth in the West-African nation of Togo, where his father is from. Félix has pledged to donate $5 for each point he wins during the tournament and BNP Paribas will match with $15 per point. Since the beginning of 2025, the program has evolved into college scholarships for excellence granted to talented students from rural areas, enabling them to succeed in higher education. At the end of 2024, Félix Auger-Aliassime visited Togo to meet various stakeholders working on the project.
  • BNP Paribas Open Scholarship Program: Celebrating its 10th anniversary, BNP Paribas is once again excited to award scholarships to four deserving high school students from the local Indio High School. The recipients will be named and each awarded $20,000 college grants during a ceremony at their school on Wednesday, March 12. They will also be congratulated during an on-court presentation at the BNP Paribas Open later that evening.
  • Team BNP Paribas Young Talents, featuring Team Mac 1: Helping the next generation of top-level tennis players reach their goals and dreams, this global program provides coaching and financial support to over 160 talented young athletes around the world on the path to professional careers.

  • Ticket Donation: BNP Paribas will again allocate a significant number of BNP Paribas Open tickets to local schools and nonprofit organizations to give young groups the opportunity to experience the thrill of live, professional tennis, a first for many.

José Placido, CEO of BNP Paribas USA and CIB Americas said: “We are very happy to again be highlighting our global commitment to tennis as title sponsor of this incredible tournament and our many worthwhile community programs. A key focus at the bank is the benefits of tennis and making it more accessible to all, using it to help foster positive impact globally, including here in the Coachella Valley community. Our community actions reflect our core values and I am thrilled that we are celebrating the 10th year anniversary of our student scholarship program for local high schoolers. To our many partners and staff who help us achieve these goals while sponsoring the best of professional tennis, a special thank you. I also invite everyone to come join us and our clients in California for two weeks of exciting world-class tennis.”

Combining traditional investing techniques with AI technology, new Index provides comprehensive view of cross-asset market trends built on millions of data points

SÃO PAULO & SAN FRANCISCO & NEW YORK — BNP Paribas, Europe’s leading global bank, and QuantumStreet AI, a global leader in the field of AI-powered investment solutions, are today announcing the launch of a proprietary new BNP Paribas Cross Asset Trend and AI Index in Brazil with global plans.

The BNP Paribas Cross Asset Trend and AI Index is designed to combine traditional trend-based investing techniques with the AI-powered approach of trend-following signals powered by QuantumStreet AI, which are designed to identify cues that might otherwise be missed to allow for the targeting of optimal allocations across global asset classes. The strategy underpinning this Index captures a broad range of available information by leveraging both past data and forward-looking indicators via AI analysis. QuantumStreet AI utilizes IBM watsonx as the foundation for its generative AI platform.

By incorporating BNP Paribas’ proprietary trend analysis, leveraging its award-winning indexing capabilities and QuantumStreet AI’s renowned machine learning models for institutional investors, the index aims to provide a comprehensive view of cross-asset market trends, including equities, fixed income, and commodities and across geographies covering equities and bonds in the U.S., Europe and Japan. The BNP Paribas Cross Asset Trend and AI Index will be used to provide the basis for global structured products being made available to BNP Paribas’ clients, offering investors a unique perspective and way to access market trends and emerging opportunities.

XP, a leading, technology-driven platform and provider of financial products and services in Brazil, offers the BNP Paribas Cross Asset Trend and AI Index on its platform, providing investors with diversified financial products that are at the forefront of global innovation.

Adil El Batji, Head of Global Equities, Americas at BNP Paribas said, “BNP Paribas’ collaboration with QuantumStreet AI highlights the bank’s commitment to fostering innovation and exploring new avenues for enhancing investment strategies. This collaboration brings together the knowledge of two industry leaders to provide clients with cutting-edge quantitative investment solutions that leverage data-driven insights to optimize portfolio performance and transform the investment landscape.”

Chris Natividad and Subhra Tripathy, Principals at QuantumStreet AI added, “We are thrilled to be working with BNP Paribas on the introduction of this new Index. It is ever so important to identify and harness consistent sources of return within a systematic framework, and AI driven approaches provide a solid basis for that. We look forward to strengthening our relationship and serving the bank’s global client base.”

Raj Datta, Vice President, ISV and AI Partnerships, IBM added, “Collaborating with QuantumStreet AI enables institutions to access AI-driven investment solutions with watsonx. Such relationships are a way forward for rapid innovation and to build trusted AI.”

Victor Vallim, Head of Structured Note Distribution and Partner at XP said, “We are confident in the work we are doing with BNP Paribas and QuantumStreet AI regarding the BNP Paribas Cross Asset Trend and AI Index, which offers innovation and capability into a single product. The low volatility of the index generates optimal conditions for access through XP’s Structured Notes, which can have the potential to provide high minimum rates of return or elevated leverage over a predefined period. This characteristic creates the variety of structures that could benefit different client profiles throughout the ecosystem.”

New York, Feb 05, 2024 – BNP Paribas is pleased to share it recently renewed and increased its loans to Grameen America, further solidifying the bank’s strong commitment to promoting social and financial inclusion. BNP Paribas’s relationship with Grameen America extends beyond financial support and is driven by the Group’s intent to reinforce positive societal impact.

Grameen America was founded in 2008, in Queens, NY, and has quickly become one of the largest microfinance institutions in the United States. As a non-for-profit organization, its mission is dedicated to helping underserved entrepreneurial women build their businesses, secure financing, and provide support that may not have been accessible otherwise.

As of December 2023, Grameen America has supported over 186,000 borrowers with more than $3.8B in loan capital through 27 cities across the country. Microfinance loans to organizations such as Grameen America, not only supports the development of small economic projects but also helps to open doors to emerging entrepreneurs seeking to elevate social initiatives and economic security.

Findings from a study conducted on Grameen America by independent research firm MDRC found that the Grameen America microlending model resulted in a reduction of measures of material hardship and an increase of credit scores and business ownership. The microlending program also improved participants’ feelings of overall financial well-being.

In 2017, BNP Paribas successfully issued its first credit line to Grameen America and has since demonstrated a fruitful partnership, for example the bank provided pro-bono mentoring to Grameen America’s employees at its head offices in New York.

The recent closing of a new microfinance loan in 2023 demonstrates BNP Paribas’s continued commitment to its longstanding relationship with Grameen America and the noteworthy funding it provides to low-income entrepreneurs. To learn more about Grameen America and its meaningful work please visit: Grameen America.

BNP Paribas has been financing microfinance institutions, building meaningful connections and providing access to credit in emerging countries since 1989. Consequently, reaching 2.9 million indirect beneficiaries through 1,2 billion euro in total loans. Last May, BNP Paribas also renewed for three more years its partnership with Grameen’s Creative Lab, a separate entity from the Grameen America that promotes a concept of having a “World of Three Zeroes”: zero poverty, zero unemployment and zero net carbon emissions.
