Employee engagement 7.5.2 ESR Awareness 7.5.2.1 Natixis intends to mobilize its teams around major ESR issues such as the fight against climate change, the protectionof biodiversityand the development of solidarity projects. It is by mobilizing our business lines that we are also taking action to reduce our direct environmental footprint. Numerous awareness-raising actions are launched each year to provide a better understanding of the Company’s ESR strategy and encourage support for the projects. Networks of committed employees The ESR Department and its network of correspondents rely on communities of volunteer employees who wish to contribute to the managementof change in the Company and to share best practices on sustainable development issues internally. They participate in various communities created on the internal social network (and in particular the ESR yammer) to share their achievements, projects and ideas on environmental protection, cycling, zero waste, diversity and social inclusion, etc.). It should be noted that in 2021, Natixis IM developed the LEAFS network (Employee Resources Group Focus on Environment), which has around 30 membersspread across the United States, the United Kingdom and France. To support the launch of the new strategicplan, Natixis has rolled out a mandatory e-learning program on corporate environmental and social responsibility. This training is intended for all employees in France and abroad and aims to: provide informationon the impactsof humanactivity V on the ecosystem; Weeks dedicated to sustainable development For many years, Natixis has been participatingin the various flagship ESR events: European Sustainable Development Week (SEDD), European Mobility Week (SEM) and European Week for Waste Reduction (SERD). These actions are deployed in France and internationally.

Training offer Natixis offers its employees a wide range of training courses in the various areas of ESR. In March 2021, a dedicated “Sustainability Training” page was created on the internal HR training portal, which brings together the Company’s existing resources to understand the challenges of ESR and sustainable finance and master the tools in place at Natixis: face-to-face training, e-learning, videos, reports, etc. Built with the Natixis business lines and functions to guide employees who wish to learn about these topics, this page is regularly updated with new resources in this area. In addition to this training portal for all, several Natixis subsidiaries offer their employees specific training courses directly related to their profession; this is the case, for example, for OstrumAM, which, after a first wave of training in 2020 on ESG issues in the asset management profession, trained all its employees in the challenges of biodiversity for the finance and asset management.
