Our markets
Different markets, one way of working
The Gulf: UAE and Qatar
What they look for
A safe, stable place to diversify capital, a European base for their business, lifestyle and heritage assets such as wine estates, and partners they can trust.
How IBC helps
Introductions made in person and in confidence, in a business culture that values relationships, with the discretion that family and principal-led businesses expect.
China
What they look for
European partners and market access, technology and know-how, and established brands in wine, agri-food and energy.
How IBC helps
Introductions to French estates, companies and institutions, with attention to the cultural and practical differences that make or break a first meeting.
Malaysia
What they look for
Long-term, discreet investments in real estate and agriculture, and partners who understand Sharia-compliant structures.
How IBC helps
Introductions to French counterparts and, through specialist advisers, structures that respect Islamic finance principles.
The Philippines
What they look for
A way for professionals, especially in real estate and services, to open a business in Europe.
How IBC helps
Guidance on the route into France and Europe, and introductions to French partners and advisers.
Serbia and Southeast Europe
What they look for
A French or European base, credible partners and routes to Western European markets. Serbia is a candidate for EU membership, which raises interest in French ties.
How IBC helps
Market-entry support and partnership introductions in both directions: companies from Serbia and Southeast Europe looking to France, and French companies looking to the Balkans.
France, looking outward
What they look for
Export markets, international capital, and a base in the UAE from which to reach the Gulf, Asia and Africa.
How IBC helps
Introductions to qualified buyers, investors and partners in the Gulf and Asia, and support to set up and invest in the UAE with our Dubai partners.
