As is the case every year, at its meeting of December 17, 2020, and following the report submitted by the Appointment Committee, Natixis’ Board of Directors examined each independent director’s expertise, judgment and freedom of thought and expression, specificallywith respect to the independencecriteria recommended by the Afep-Medef Code, and the criteria in the Board’s Internal Rules (see section 2.2.1.2 A of this chapter) . The Board of Directors took care to appraise whether the companies in which the independent directors hold corporate office have a significant business relationshipwith Natixis or its corporate Group.

Independent directors Therefore, one-third of the members of the Board of Directors are independent, in accordance with the Afep-Medef Code.
