THE GROUP’S BUSINESSES INSURANCE IN FRANCE

Individual health 2.2.4.1 In a changing environment, Groupama has managed to maintain its number 1 position as an individual health insurer (source: L’Argus de l’Assurance – June 2018). In 2018, the Group innovated by making a remote consultation service available to its health insurance policyholders; the experiment conducted by Groupama Paris Val de Loire and Groupama d’Oc was a success. Building on this success, the Group decided to extend the remote consultationoffering to all of the Group’s healthinsurancepolicyholders. 2018 was also marked by the establishment of the ‘Relaimoi’ service. This assistance service is completely new on the market. Members can transfer their assistance relating to housekeeping, child or elder care, and remote assistance to a member of their family who needs it medically and is not necessarily a member of Groupama. Lastly, Groupama continued to assume its role as insurer for beneficiaries of supplementalhealthcareassistance.

Alongside the Group’s management company, Groupama Asset Management, Groupama Gan Vie entered into strategic partnershipsin 2018 with three Asset Managers,BlackRock,M&G, and Pictet AM, to diversify customer savings on new unit-linked products. Their products, combinedwith the expertise and quality of Groupama Asset Management’s support, will strengthen the competitiveness of Groupama Gan Vie’s life insurance and retirementoffering in the long term. In addition, Groupama Gan Vie has developed a new method of management within its life insurance policies: delegated management. At the same time, Groupama Gan Vie continued to support the Group’s distributionnetworks in the developmentand digitalisation of the sales process. For example, the sales support tool iVie has been deployed with all Asset Management Advisors of the Groupama network.

In group retirement, the Group has seen very strong acceleration of its development, particularly with a strong increase in investments in unit-linked (UL) products. A Company Retirement Savings training academy was launched to promote this business line of the future withall of theGroup’s networks. In an environment where service is proving to be highly differentiated among networks, providers, and end customers, the year was marked by the establishment of a strategy of services backed by group health and protection offerings. Remote medicine, especially to obtain a second medical opinion, is being gradually integrated into the policies in the portfolio and is systematically offered in a call for tenders on the customised scope. Many projects are underway to further improve the customer experience throughout the value chain. The work carried out in 2018 confirms a dual trajectory: digitalisation of all sales and management acts and professionalisation of customer advisory services. The quality of the Group’s support for its partners and customers has been rewarded. For the second consecutive year, the brokerage profession awarded it first place for the quality of its online business space.
