Article L311-38 of the French Insurance Code

Upon decision of the College of Resolution, the bridge institution is deemed to constitute a continuation of the person subject to a resolution procedure. This institution shall continue to exercise any right previously held by this person over the property, rights or obligations transferred, without prejudice to the provisions of Article L. 311-22.

Notwithstanding any provision or stipulation to the contrary, contracts transferred to the bridge institution shall continue ipso jure without any right of termination being exercisable by reason only of such transfer or assignment.

Article L311-38

Sur décision du collège de résolution, l’établissement-relais est réputé constituer une continuation de la personne soumise à une procédure de résolution. Cet établissement continue d’exercer tout droit détenu précédemment par cette personne sur les biens, droits ou obligations transférés, sans préjudice des dispositions de l’article L. 311-22.


Nonobstant toute disposition ou stipulation contraire, les contrats transférés à l’établissement-relais se poursuivent de plein droit sans qu’aucun droit de résiliation ne puisse être exercé du seul fait de ce transfert ou de cette cession.
