A warm welcome

to the Franco-German regional bank

We are the German-French bank, headquartered in the heart of the German-French border region, right in the centre of Saarbrücken.

Further branches in Mannheim, Strasbourg, Paris and Lyon ensure the best possible coverage of our business area. This means we are always close to our customers and their needs – “Economic foresight through human connection” has been not only our motto for many years, but also the guiding principle behind our daily interactions.

We have been in existence for more than 80 years and have always focused on the corporate client segment, property and project financing, as well as institutional clients and local authorities/the public sector.

Pôle Franco-Allemand

With the Pôle Franco-Allemand – an initiative of SaarLB – we offer a forum for cross-border investments – from France to Germany and vice versa.

The bank now does almost 50% of its new business in or with France. This success is based on cross-border knowledge of markets, business practices and legal norms, combined with bilingual expertise and the great commitment of the advisors.

This expertise of SaarLB is combined in the Pôle Franco-Allemand with that of our network partners from the fields of business, finance, law, tax and science. In addition, SaarLB’s experts from both countries are also available to provide you with advice and support, for example, in order to lead your project to success through “tailor-made” financing.

Become part of the SaarLB team

We love people who are committed to what they do and driven by the entrepreneurial spirit.

Interdisciplinary teams, partly open working areas, variable working times, mobile working and family friendliness: This promotes a flexible and agile work culture.

Facts & figures

For almost 80 years, SaarLB has demonstrated proximity, both to the region and to its customers and partners. Then as now, it has always been a question of providing impetus with foresight for the economy in the region.

Saarland is an excellent location for this: It has a cross-border structure, is characterised by structural change and a desire for innovation, and boasts renowned companies and research institutes. SaarLB is happy to support this future-oriented approach: with Franco-German expertise, close ties to small and medium-sized businesses and individually tailored offers and services for our customers. And last but not least close cooperation with both the state and the Savings Banks Finance Group, in which the bank has been rooted since its foundation.
