  • Permanent Information on Executive Officers’ Compensation
    February 26, 2021 PERMANENT INFORMATION ON EXECUTIVE OFFICERS’ COMPENSATION In accordance with the Afep-Medef Corporate governance code, AXA hereby discloses decisions made by its Board of Directors on February 24, 2021 with respect to the compensation of AXA’s executive officers. Variable compensation of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) for 2020 The variable compensation of Mr. Buberl (CEO) is based on two components: The Group performance and his individual performance, which are assessed separately. The determination of the CEO’s variable compensation is based on the following formula: Variable compensation due = Target variable compensation * (70% Group Performance + 30% Individual Performance). Group Performance component In determining the Group performance component of Mr. Buberl’s variable compensation, the Compensation & Governance Committee and the Board of Directors considered the results of the calculation defined at the beginning of the year applicable to all senior executives and based on the following indicators: (i) underlying earnings per share; (ii) adjusted Return on Equity (RoE); (iii) gross revenues, both in Commercial Property & Casualty and in Protection and Health; (iv) Net Promoter Score (customer recommendation index) and (v) non-commission expenses which respectively weigh 55%, 15%, 10%, 10% and 10%. The results of the calculation were significantly impacted by the Covid-19 crisis. Given the demanding nature of the objectives, the strict application of the formula determined by the Board of Directors at the beginning of 2020 to assess the Group performance sets the global achievement rate of these objectives at 35%. A complete neutralization of the impact of the sanitary crisis (1.5 billion euros on the 2020 underlining earnings) would set the global achievement rate of the Group performance at 68%.

It must also evidence appropriate process. There is a very fine distinction between the approval of processes and their definition. Only exceptionally would the Board intervene to initiate or define. The Board sets the tone for the Company.

The Board has ultimate responsibility for ensuring an appropriate culture in the Company to act as a backdrop to the way in which the Creating long-term sustainability Company behaves towards all stakeholders. Good corporate governance is not about adhering to codes Dear shareholder of practice (although adherence may constitute a part of the evidence of good governance) but rather about the exercise of It is important that we all remember the Board is not a a mindset to do what is right.

  • AXA Demonstrated Its Resilience in the Challenging Context of the Covid-19 Pandemic
    Paris, August 6, 2020 (7:00am CET) Half Year 2020 Earnings • Total revenues1 down 2% to Euro 52.4 billion • Underlying earnings2 down 48% to Euro 1.9 billion, or up 1% excl. Covid-19 claims3 and EQH4 • Covid-19 claims3 estimated 2020 UE2 impact confirmed at Euro 1.5 billion and booked in 1H20 • Solvency II ratio5 at 180%, debt gearing2 down to 27.6%, and cash remittance of Euro 4.9 billion • No exceptional distribution of reserves in 4Q20 following ACPR’s July 28 communication “In the first half of 2020, AXA demonstrated its resilience in the challenging context of the Covid-19 pandemic. Revenues were down 2%, to Euro 52 billion, reflecting strong growth in the first quarter offset by lower business activity in the second quarter”, said Thomas Buberl, Chief Executive Officer of AXA. “Growth in Health remained strong throughout the first six months of the year, at +9%, and price increases in P&C Commercial lines continued to accelerate.” “The Group’s underlying earnings were Euro 1.9 billion, down 48%, and were up 1% excluding Covid-19 claims3 and the disposal of Equitable Holdings. The impact of Covid-19 on AXA’s earnings was in line with our previously published guidance. Commercial lines were the most impacted, notably at AXA XL. The rest of the Group was resilient, with the impacts from Covid-19 claims largely offset by lower frequency in Motor and growth in Health and Asset Management.” “AXA’s Solvency II ratio was resilient at 180%, its debt gearing was reduced by 1.2 points to 27.6%, and cash remittance amounted to Euro 4.9 billion, confirming the strength of the Group’s balance sheet in volatile market conditions.
