Amundi and Victory Capital sign a definitive agreement to become strategic partners

Published 9 July, 2024

The definitive agreement with Victory Capital is in line with the Memorandum of Understanding announced on April 16, 20241:

  • Amundi US will be combined with Victory Capital;
  • Amundi will become a strategic shareholder of Victory Capital with a 26.1% economic stake in Victory Capital;
  • Both parties have entered into 15-year distribution and services agreements, which will be effective upon the closing of the transaction.


Under these distribution and services agreements, Amundi will be the distributor of Victory Capital’s US-manufactured active asset management products outside of the US. Additionally, Amundi will become the supplier of non-US manufactured products for Victory’s distribution in the US.

Corporate - Rapport Intégré - Valérie Baudson

Valérie Baudson, Chief Executive Officer of Amundi

“The transaction will allow Amundi to strengthen its presence in the US via a larger US investment and distribution platform. It will also provide Amundi’s clients worldwide with access to a broader range of high-performing US investment solutions. Thanks to this transaction, Amundi will become a strategic shareholder in a US-based asset management firm with a consistent track record of development. This is a compelling proposition for our clients and our employees.  It is also a value-creating deal for our shareholders.”

The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions2, and is expected to be completed late in the 4th quarter of 2024 or early 2025.
