12.2.1 Short-term employee benefits This item includes wages and salaries paid within twelve months of the end of the reporting period in which the related services were rendered, employee incentives and profit-sharing, meeting the definition of short-term benefits under IAS 19R “Employee Benefits”. In accordance with this standard, short-term benefits are expensed in the period in which the employees render the services giving rise to such benefits. Deferred compensation 12.2.2 Share-based employee retention and performance recognition plans Every year since 2010, Natixis has granted share-based payment plans to certain categories of staff. The accounting treatment of these plans is described in Note 6.17. Regarding the plan approved by the Board of Directors on February 13, 2018, as these allocations had not yet formally been carried out at the reporting date, these expenses have been estimated using best available estimates of inputs at the reporting date. Coface has had share-based compensation plans in place since 2014. As the impact of these plans is not material for Natixis at the consolidated level, the characteristics of these plans are not outlined in the paragraphs that follow.
