Episode 3: Getting involved through sport
For over 50 years, BNP Paribas has supported tennis, sharing its values of fair play, commitment and performance as a long-standing partner of major tournaments such as Roland-Garros in Paris or the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells. The Group has established the We Are Tennis Cup (WAT Cup), a tournament open to all employees from around the world. It is accessible regardless of their level, allowing them to play in a mixed team against colleagues of an equivalent standard and takes place on the legendary clay courts of Roland-Garros. It is the largest inhouse competition run by a company with more than 3,000 participants in 2025 and 33 countries represented.It is this passion for sport combined with a taste for discovery and sharing that first appealed to Elodie Mattio, Head of AML/KYC within Global General Partner at BNP Paribas Wealth Management Luxembourg, and Nicolas Weitkiewic, Head of Operational Transformation at BNP Paribas Cardif Brazil.
