Commitments to solidarity-related projects

7.5.2.2 Natixis is involved in many solidarity projects by supporting the mobilization of its employees, who are increasingly willing to get involved in meaningful and useful projects for society. Several schemes are offered in the Company in France and abroad, in partnership with numerous non-profit organizations (NGOs, local associations) to allow the involvement of each person according to their availability and their commitment wishes. Since 2013, Natixis has allowed its employees to take humanitarian leave (Congé Solidaire ® ) to support the non-profit association Planète Urgence. The missions concern the protection of biodiversity, socio-educational support for young people and the reinforcement of the skills of adults in various fields. As part of the health crisis, missionswere offered in France or remotely. More than 150 missions have been supported since the beginning. In addition, for the first time in 2021, Natixis supported the “Environment and Development” program implemented by Planète Urgence in Indonesia, aimed at restoring a mangroveecosystemand preserving biodiversity (with a particular focus on the Java rhinoceros). Thanks to the financing provided by Natixis, nearly 20,000 trees have been planted and local populations have been made aware of the importance of preserving the mangrove and the Java rhinoceros. Since 2019, Natixis has offered its employees in France a simple and participative generosity scheme: payroll ROUNDING. It enables them to support one of the five selected associations that receive salary donations. The monthly microdon is deducted directly from the pay slip and Natixis doubles the amount of employee donations. Two years after its launch, nearly €150,000, including the Company’s contribution, were paid to the five beneficiary associations. Other actions are regularly organized for employees such as solidarity races (e.g. Odyssea, Course du Cœur) or collection of objects on behalf of the most disadvantaged (e.g. collection of toys for the Rejoué association). Lastly, several mentoring or sponsorship schemes are offered to support the education and integrationof young people. For example, Natixis Investment Managers has a partnership with the Sport dans la Ville association, Ostrum AM with the Vox Populi association, and since 2011, Natixis has supported the associationNos Quartiers ont du Talent (NQT). Natixis Foundation In 2020, Natixis Foundation – corporate foundation was created. Its aim is to facilitate the commitment of all Natixis employees to a fair transition. Natixis Foundation will thus support projects and actions of general interest that come under both environmental protection and solidarity, with a goal of lasting impact.

In 2021 Natixis Foundation defined three priority areas of action: the professional integration of young people and education, the circular economy and biodiversity. In its first year of operation, Natixis Foundation paid particular attention to selecting and implementing regional actions or projects, in France and abroad, with the support of Natixis employees. They got involved by proposingactions as part of the foundation’s first call for employee projects, voting for projects, and co-constructing them. Natixis Foundation supports the professional integration of young people through biodiversity protection missions, in partnership with the Unis-Cité association; helping the most disadvantaged by combating food waste, in partnership with the associations Linkee and Banco Alimentare; helping people in professional reintegration through the renovation of toys, in partnership with the association Rejoué, improving the quality of biodiversity, respectively in rural and mountain areas, in partnership with the Terre de Relations Foundation and with the Mountain Wilderness France association. In line with the health challenges related to the COVID-19 crisis, two projects were selected by employees and are supported by the foundation: improving healthcare conditions in four rural African villages through equipment producing water and solar energy, in partnership with the NGO Électriciens Sans Frontières, and the construction and rehabilitation of wells in rural communities in Liberia, in partnership with the NGO Action contre la Faim. In fact, access to water improves hygiene conditions and practices (including barrier gestures) in rural communities and promotes the development of local agriculture. Lastly, two projects were selected by the employees and are supported by the foundation: the construction and rehabilitation of water wells in rural communities in Liberia in partnership with the NGO Action contre la Faim and the improvement of care conditions in four rural African villages thanks to solar energy equipment, in partnership with the NGO Électriciens Sans Frontières. Solidarity week In December 2021,the Company organized for the first time a global week dedicated to solidarity engagementwith its employees all over the world. Numerous initiatives were organized at the same time in the United States, the United Kingdom, Portugal, Italy, Hong Kong, the United Arab Emiratesand France.
