With BLF, it’s not only about numbers! All our staff share common moral and ethical values:
  • Integrity
  • Competences

  • Humanism
  • Engagement
Moreover, we are committed to our mission statement confirming that:
Banque Libano-Française is a Lebanese, universal, highly performing bank, renowned for its professionalism and financial strength.
We aim at being a leading player and a reference in the banking sector in Lebanon.
We are committed to constantly developing our skills to ensure expertise and quality of service, and to maintain and strengthen the trust relationship with:

  • our clients who see us as a real partner,
  • our staff to whom we offer opportunities for self-accomplishment and a promising future,
  • our shareholders who are looking for capital preservation and appreciation,
  • the Lebanese banking sector by spearheading its drive towards sustainable growth,
  • the Lebanese economy towards the prosperity of which we are strongly committed.
What we do
We have historically been a commercial bank servicing large to medium-sized companies, and throughout the years we expanded our activities to include:
  • retail banking with a full range of products and services (accounts, cards, loans, bancassurance, electronic banking…) for individuals of all ages,
  • private banking to meet the needs of wealthy individuals,
  • investment banking to provide guidance to companies regarding their capital allocation and investments,
  • correspondent banking to deal with other banks and perform transactions locally and internationally.
How we are socially responsible
Beyond banking, we believe in a responsibility toward our community and the planet. For us, success is about the people we work with and the environment we share. 
ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) isn't a trend for us, it’s how we’ve worked since day one. We aim to be a transparent and ethical partner for your generation, guided by our five founding values: Responsibility, Integrity, Skills, Humanism, and Commitment.

 

As Founding Board Members of the United Nations Global Compact Network Lebanon (GCNL), we aim to lead by example. We focus on four main areas to make a real difference:

  • Our Workplace: We believe people are what truly matter. We’re known for being an inclusive workplace where careers are built on fair and good labor practices. 
  • Our Marketplace: We take our role in the economy seriously, building ethical relationships with every client and supplier.
  • Our Community: We stay engaged and active, striving to contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to help our society grow stronger and more resilient.
  • Our Planet: We work every day to conduct our business in a way that reduces our environmental footprint and helps preserve the environment.

By doing our part, we help move business and society toward a more sustainable and responsible future.


We are effectively engaged in our community through charity and various partnerships. Here are some of the initiatives we are really proud of:
  • Sponsoring entrepreneurship. 
  • Patronizing cultural and artistic events and festivals like the Liban Jazz Festival, projects related to the safeguard of the Lebanese heritage, publication of books, museums...
  • Financing environmental and recycling initiatives such as Jouzour loubnan’s reforestation campaign...
  • Supporting projects aiming at the protection of children and teenagers' health such as the Tobacco Free Initiative in preventing tobacco consumption.
  • Helping various educational institutions by participating in job fairs, granting scholarships to students and school-related projects...
