Don't bother with a brokerage account. Follow Accor's own instructions on "How to Be a Shareholder" http://www.accorhotels-group.com/en/...areholder.html

Contact SOCIETE GENERALE directly (number listed in the Accor link), I used Skype, talked to the operator who emailed the forms (filled within 5 minutes) and faxed it (weird how they only accept fax) back to Societe Generale in France. I suggest buying at least 20 shares to make the international transaction fees worth it.

Just a heads up, I posted the same question here about a year back. Beware of touts who offer to do it for "cheap" ... I had FT members asking USD100 as "agent" fees !!
