Legislation on inactive bank accounts and consequences on your assets held in account Law no. 2014-617 of 13 June 2014, known as “Xxxxxx Law”, strengthens the legal supervision of inactive bank accounts. This new legislation establishes a definition of inactive accounts and makes the financial institutions responsible for a certain number of obligations that have consequences on your assets. At the end of a period of inactivity lasting 10 years (3 years for deceased holders). The law stipulates that an inactive account must be transferred to the Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations. Definition of an inactive account A bank account is considered to be inactive when the two following conditions are met at the end of a period of 12 months:  The account has not been the subject of any transaction, aside from entry of interest and debit by the institution holding the account for fees and commissions of all kinds or payment of revenues or redemption of capital or debt securities.  The account holder, their legal representative or the person authorised by them has not been seen in any form whatsoever by the institution for said account or for another account opened in their name. The time frame is raised to 5 years for securities accounts, passbook savings accounts, term accounts and accounts opened in the context of savings products. When amounts deposited on these types of account are unavailable during a certain period of time by virtue of legal or contractual provisions (company savings plan and term accounts for example), the 5-year period starts to run at the end of the period of unavailability. In the event of the holder’s death, inactivity is ascertained when, at the end of a period of 12 months after the death, no heir or beneficiary has made themselves known to the institution. The financial institution must inform the account holder (or their beneficiaries in the event of a deceased holder) if the inactivity of an account is ascertained at the end of the period, so as to enable them to reactivate it. This information takes place for the first time when the inactivity is ascertained. It is then renewed annually.

The Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations keeps these assets for 20 years (27 years for deceased holders). Beyond this deadline, if they are not reclaimed, they become definitively acquired by the State.
