This information is based on the activities of the parent company Peugeot S.A., its subsidiaries within the meaning of Article L. 233-1 of the French Commercial Code and the companies that it controls, within the meaning of Article L. 233-3 of the French Commercial Code, and is presented in a detailed Annual Report (CSR Report) relating to the Automotive Division. The reporting scope and the cross-reference tables with the “Grenelle 2” Law and the DPEF (see Section 2.7) detail the main risks and challenges identified by Groupe PSA based on a macroscopic risk analysis (see methodology presented in Section 2.1.1), covering the 43 categories included in Article R. 225-105 of the French Commercial Code. However, as an exception to the above: Quantitative information on Banque PSA Finance (BPF) and Faurecia is published separately in this section and accompanied by specific explanations, if necessary. For further information, especially about CSR initiatives implemented by these two companies over the period, please refer to ESG reports from PSA Banque France (formerly SOFIB – the joint venture between Banque PSA Finance and Santander Consumer Finance in France) and Faurecia: website, Registration Document, etc. This document does not include the ESG information specific to the Opel and Vauxhall companies since their acquisition by Groupe PSA on 1 August 2017 meant that the exhaustive collection and consolidation of this information in a uniform manner could not be guaranteed. However, since 1 August 2017, Groupe PSA has implemented an action plan including a detailed roadmap, designed to include the Opel and Vauxhall subsidiaries within the ESG reporting scope for the 2018 financial year. For the most important CSR information, i.e. the six issues that have been qualified as strategic in the materiality matrix (see § 2.1.3) aim at least to present information in a uniform and consolidated manner. The implementation and deployment of this action plan has been recognised by the independent third-party body GRANT THORNTON.
