 If you disagree with or do not get a response from your advisor, you can send your claim to the direction  of Societe Generale Private Banking France by email to the following address: FR-SGPB-Relations-Clients@socgen.com or by mail to: 

Société Générale Private Banking France

Societe Generale Private Banking France undertakes to acknowledge receipt of your claim within 10 (ten) working days from the date it is sent and to provide you with a response within 2 (two) months from the same date. If we are unable to meet this 2 (two) month deadline, you will be informed by letter.

In the event of disagreement with the bank  or of a lack of response from us within 2 (two) months of sending your first written claim, or within 15 (fifteen) working days for a claim about a payment service, you may refer the matter free of charge, depending on the nature of your claim, to:  

 

The Consumer Ombudsman at the FBF

The Consumer Ombudsman at the Fédération Bancaire Française (FBF – French Banking Federation) is competent for disputes relating to services provided and contracts concluded in the field of banking operations (e.g. management of deposit accounts, credit operations, payment services etc.), investment services, financial instruments and savings products, as well as the marketing of insurance contracts.

The FBF Ombudsman will reply directly to you within 90 (ninety) days from the date on which she/he receives all the documents on which the request is based. In the event of a complex dispute, this period may be extended. The FBF Ombudsman will formulate a reasoned position and submit it to both parties for approval.

The FBF Ombudsman can be contacted on the following website: www.lemediateur.fbf.fr or by mail at:

Le Médiateur de la Fédération Bancaire Française
CS 151
75422 Paris CEDEX 09

 

The Ombudsman of the AMF

The Ombudsman of the Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF - French Financial Markets Authority) is also competent for disputes relating to investment services, financial instruments and financial savings products.

For this type of dispute, as a consumer customer, you have therefore a choice between the FBF Ombudsman and the AMF Ombudsman. Once you have chosen one of these two ombudsmen, you can no longer refer the same dispute to the other ombudsman.

The AMF Ombudsman can be contacted on the AMF website: www.amf-france.org/fr/le-mediateur or by mail at:

What is digital art?

Five Body Problems 2, Lost And Found in The Wash by Dev Harlan, 2022. Two-minute digital short film using photogrammetry and 3D animation.
It is one of the thirty or so works broadcast each year in the Paris offices of Societe Generale Private Banking.

Is digital art an invention of the 21th century?

Contrary to what one might think, digital art did not begin in the 21st century. Artists have always appropriated the tools of their time to push back the limits of creation. The first digital works were born around the same time as the first computers, at the beginning of the 1950s! The transition from the industrial era to the digital era marked the beginning of a profound paradigm shift for artistic creation. One of the pioneers of the genre is the American artist and engineer Ben Laposky, who in 1953 photographed sine waves produced by an oscilloscope combined with various electrical circuits. He helped pave the way for many innovations that have marked the history of digital art.

NFTs have fostered the emergence of new collectors.

What are the main categories of digital art?

A work is digital when it integrates a digital tool into its creative process. There are therefore as many categories as there are technologies. From virtual reality to augmented reality, from Net Art to robotics, from mapping to performance, digital art covers many forms. However, we can consider three main categories: immersive art which immerses the viewer in an image and which fills the space, interactive art which reacts to its environment, and finally generative art whose creations are algorithmic and self-generating.

How to acquire and exhibit digital art?

Digital works can be exhibited in the private or public spheres, on a Smart-TV or any other dedicated medium, and in living spaces that help reveal the full spectrum of artistic feeling. The exhibition of digital art in the real world makes it possible to support artists, democratize access to art and bring extra soul to spaces frequented on a daily basis: this is our mission at Artpoint! NFTs have revolutionized the world of digital art and allow the purchase of unique and authenticated digital works of art on the blockchain, thus helping promote the emergence of a new generation of artists and collectors.
