Article L1523-1 of the French General Code of Local Authorities

Local semi-public companies may intervene on behalf of persons who do not participate in their capital.

For operations other than the provision of services, this intervention is subject to the condition that these persons first provide all the necessary financing, in the case of private persons, or guarantee all the necessary financing, in the case of public persons ; failing this, these interventions are subject to the prior agreement of the Board of Directors or the Supervisory Board, taken by a two-thirds majority including at least half of the representatives of the local authorities or their groupings, which are shareholders, as well as, if applicable, the agreement of the local authority in whose territory the property investment is planned.
