Retail & E.commerce | Carrefour and Casino in LatAm: It’s a Match!

SECTOR | Retail & E.commerce | Carrefour and Casino in LatAm: It’s a Match!




Carrefour and Casino's interests can converge in Latin America. Casino’s ongoing reorganization of its Latam entities will transform GPA and Exito into two more liquid assets by end-2019. Although not confirmed by Casino, the next natural step from 2020 would be to sell both Exito (EUR3.0bn e EV), with little interest from Carrefour, and then GPA (EUR7.7bn e EV), with greater interest from Carrefour.

Since 1996, Bryan, Garnier & Co has been growing with an absolute conviction that the investment banking landscape would experience a major revolution: most of the large local generalist banking groups will disappear to the benefit of a handful of global powerhouses, and an emerging group of independent, highly specialised boutique investment banks.
