In this context, Natixis has been able to support its clients in innovative and historic transactions, including the first structured product combining a social bond and a climate index and the structuring of historical social issues. In 2021, Natixis intends to consolidate its leading role in sustainable finance innovation by expanding the range of sustainable finance products and services offered to Corporate & Investment Banking clients, launchingnew investmentsolutions in its Asset Management affiliates, and developing sustainable investments and products for its insurance business.
