Chart/image description: Bar chart showing the compensation structure comparison. The y-axis represents values from 0 to 20,000. The bars are stacked into three components: Annual Fixed Salary (bottom, light grey), Annual Target Short Term Incentive (middle, medium grey/purple), and Long-Term Incentive (top, blue/dark grey). The data points shown on the bars are:

  • AXA (since 2022): 25% Annual Fixed Salary, 27% Annual Target Short Term Incentive, 48% Long-Term Incentive.
  • AXA (from 2026): 25% Annual Fixed Salary, 26% Annual Target Short Term Incentive, 49% Long-Term Incentive.
  • 3 main European Insurers (Average): 27% Annual Fixed Salary, 26% Annual Target Short Term Incentive, 47% Long-Term Incentive.
  • 3 main European Insurers (Median): 29% Annual Fixed Salary, 30% Annual Target Short Term Incentive, 41% Long-Term Incentive.
  • European Financial Services (3rd quartile): 28% Annual Fixed Salary, 21% Annual Target Short Term Incentive, 51% Long-Term Incentive.
  • CAC 12 Companies (Median): 25% Annual Fixed Salary, 32% Annual Target Short Term Incentive, 43% Long-Term Incentive.
  • CAC 12 Companies (3rd quartile): 20% Annual Fixed Salary, 26% Annual Target Short Term Incentive, 54% Long-Term Incentive.
  • International Insurers (US and Asia) (1st quartile): 8% Annual Fixed Salary, 17% Annual Target Short Term Incentive, 75% Long-Term Incentive.
  • International Insurers (US and Asia) (Median): 7% Annual Fixed Salary, 23% Annual Target Short Term Incentive, 70% Long-Term Incentive.

All amounts in Euro thousands


For consistency, the Chief Executive Officer's Total Target Compensation will remain within the third quartile of the CAC12 panel and below the first quartile of the International Insurance Companies panel.
In determining the total target compensation level, the Compensation, Governance & Sustainability Committee took into account:
  • The weighting of the annual variable and long-term share-based compensation as well as the rigor of the applicable performance conditions, as evidenced by historical achievement rates. Between 2022 and 2025, the average payout rate for annual variable compensation was 113% (i.e. 87% of the maximum opportunity), and the average global performance rate for performance shares was 94% (i.e. 72% of the maximum opportunity).
  • The results of its benchmarking analysis, which highlighted that the Company's compensation structure offers lower upside potential than that of the three main European insurers (Allianz, Generali and Zurich Insurance). By maintaining stringent performance conditions and a 130% payout cap on both target variable compensation and long-term compensation delivered in AXA shares, the Compensation, Governance & Sustainability Committee aimed to avoid a disproportionate increase in total compensation in the event of outperformance.
Chart/image description: Scatter plot comparing compensation levels.

The y-axis represents values from 5,000 to 15,000. The x-axis shows different companies/panels:

  • AXA (since 2022)
  • AXA (from 2026)
  • Generali, Allianz, Zurich (represented by logos under 2025)

Data points:

  • AXA (since 2022): Total Target Compensation (light blue dot) at ~6,500; Maximum Opportunity (dark blue dot) at ~8,200.
  • AXA (from 2026): Total Target Compensation (light blue dot) at ~7,500; Maximum Opportunity (dark blue dot) at ~9,400.
  • Generali (2025): Total Target Compensation (light pink dot) at ~7,000; Maximum Opportunity (dark pink dot) at ~10,000.
  • Allianz (2025): Total Target Compensation (light pink dot) at ~7,000; Maximum Opportunity (dark pink dot) at ~13,000.
  • Zurich (2025): Total Target Compensation (light pink dot) at ~8,000; Maximum Opportunity (dark pink dot) at ~14,000.

Legend:

  • Total Target Compensation (in Euro thousands) (represented by light blue and light pink dots)
  • Maximum Opportunity (in Euro thousands) (represented by dark blue and dark pink dots)


Finally, the Compensation, Governance & Sustainability Committee recommended that, in accordance with the Company's past practice, this new compensation package will remain unchanged for the duration of the Chief Executive Officer's next mandate (i.e. until April 2030). The Board and the Compensation, Governance & Sustainability Committee therefore took particular care to design a new compensation package that is well balanced, aligned with shareholders' interests, and expected to remain sufficiently competitive over this period.

4.1.4 Assessing the impact of AXA's strategy

### AXA for Progress Index: Strategic Key Performance Indicators
Since 2021, AXA has used the "AXA for Progress Index" as a set of key performance indicators to measure the impact and track progress of AXA's role in society. This tool is designed to: (i) integrate sustainability into the Group's activities as an investor, insurer and company; and (ii) monitor AXA's sustainability strategy at the Group level. During its 2024 Annual Shareholders' Meeting, AXA presented the second edition of the "AXA for Progress Index", highlighting (i) a new set of strategic targets aligned with the 2024-2026 Group strategic plan "Unlock the Future", (ii) its commitment to meeting its 2030 decarbonization targets which are set in line with industry standards (footnote: Refer to Sections 4.2.1.3 "Addressing climate change as an investor", 4.2.1.4 "Addressing climate change as an insurer" and 4.2.1.5 "Addressing climate change as a company".); and (iii) AXA's extra-financial performance leveraging S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (footnote: S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment evaluates each year over 7,500 companies using criteria that are both industry-specific and financially material. AXA is included in indices that use CSA data, including the Dow Jones Sustainability Indices. For more information, refer to https://www.spglobal.com/sustainable1/en/csa.), an internationally recognized methodology.

4.3.1.1 AXA's approach to its own workforce

Impacts, risks and opportunities related to AXA's own workforce
AXA's Impacts, risks and opportunities As a company ESRS Topic (Yes/No)(footnote: IROs flagged as "Yes" refer to sustainability topics identified in the ESRS and addressed by disclosure requirements set by the regulation. IROs flagged as "No" are disclosure made by AXA in relation with sustainability topics not listed directly by the ESRS and addressed by minimum disclosure requirements.)
SOCIAL
Working conditions AXA employees may face working conditions that are not satisfactory, such as unfair treatment, unequal opportunities, harassment, or the non-respect of other rights. I- Yes
Inclusion and diversity AXA contributes to the health, well-being and development of its employees. I+ Yes


I- Negative impacts I+ Positive impacts O Opportunities R Risks


The material negative impact identified by AXA relates to sporadic incidents. The material positive impact results from the activities of the Group as the decision to go beyond the minimum legal requirements with respect to the social benefits of AXA's employees is under the responsibility of the management.

Currently, AXA's impacts on its workforce do not result in any material risks for its business strategy or model. However, understanding employee's needs helps AXA adapt its actions and policies both locally and globally, involving human resources and diversity teams. More work is needed to fully understand the current and future effects of these impacts and to better integrate them into AXA's overall strategy.
The workforce that could be materially impacted by AXA, through its own operations or through its value chain, products and services are:
  • AXA's employees who are physically working on-site or remotely across any of AXA's entities, including those on long and short-term contracts, as well as full-time and part-time employees. Processes related to the understanding of the specificities of its employees are disclosed in the Section "4.3.1.5 - Supporting social dialogue and engaging with employees"; and
  • non-salaried workforce corresponds to the staff physically working on-site or remotely across any of AXA's entities, but who are not AXA's employees: logistics (e.g. receptionists, security guards, canteen staff, cleaning staff, and maintenance staff), IT consultants, temporary workers, student trainees/interns/apprentices (without labor contract), outsourcing agreements, third-party suppliers or strategic consultants.
AXA has not identified any business partnerships at significant risk of incidents of forced labor, compulsory labor or child labor due to its own operations. AXA has not conducted a resilience analysis of its strategy and business model regarding its capacity to address own workforce impacts.
With respect to any material impact arising from AXA's Climate Transition Plan (CTP) on its own workforce, please see Section 4.2.1.4 - Addressing climate change as an insurer on upskilling AXA's employees to climate adaptation.

Consolidated financial statements

6.6 Notes to the Consolidated Financial statements
### 1.14.3.2 Estimates of future cash flows
The FCF notably include all the probability-weighted estimates of future cash flows within the boundary of each contract already recognized. Cash flows are within the boundary of an insurance contract if they arise from substantive rights and obligations that exist during the reporting period in which AXA can compel the policyholder to pay the premiums or in which the entity has a substantive obligation to provide the policyholder with services. A substantive obligation to provide services ends notably when AXA has the practical ability to reassess the insurance risks and, as a result, can set a price or level of benefits that fully reflects those risks.
The unbiased estimate of the expected future cash flows within the boundary of insurance contracts, including the cost of options and guarantees, are based on a probability-weighted mean of the full range of possible outcomes to factor the uncertainty about the timing and amounts of the cash flows, determined from the perspective of the Group, provided that the estimates are consistent with observable market prices for market variables reflecting conditions existing at the measurement date.
The cash flows attributable to the group of insurance contracts include premiums from the policyholders, claims' payments (including reported, incurred and all the future claims for which AXA has a substantive obligation net of recoveries from claims), profit sharing to policyholders, as well as payments arising from the policyholders exercising options, expenses and commissions, costs related to investment activities performed for the benefit of policyholders (i.e. including investment-return services and investment-related services).
The following cash flows are not included in the contracts boundary: Investment returns as they are recognized, measured and presented separately under other applicable IFRSs, costs of investment activities performed for the benefit of shareholders, payments or receipts that arise under reinsurance contracts held (as they are accounted for separately), those that may arise from future insurance contracts, overheads that do not provide any economic benefits to fulfilling insurance contracts, income tax payments and receipts AXA does not pay or receive in a fiduciary capacity, flows arising from components separated from the insurance contracts and accounted for using other applicable IFRSs.
If insurance premiums are first collected by an intermediary and then transferred to AXA at a later date, the premium receivables from the intermediary are accounted for as future cash flows within the boundary of insurance contracts included in the measurement of the corresponding group of insurance contracts applying IFRS 17.
### 1.14.3.3 Discount rate
AXA has defined a Group methodology for the calibration and the generation of 'IFRS 17 yield curves' used to discount the estimate of future cash flows within the boundary of contracts, consistent with the IFRS 17 requirements and applied homogeneously across all AXA entities.
If the standard does not impose a particular estimation technique to determine the yield curves, AXA has chosen to adopt a bottom-up approach as it has been widely used for many years in the European embedded value (EEV) and Solvency II frameworks.
This approach consists in using a basic Risk-Free Rate (RFR), based on swap rates for most currencies and government bond rates for others, adjusted by adding on a Liquidity Premium (LP) allowance to reflect the remuneration of illiquidity observed on traded assets until the Last Liquid Point (LLP), meaning the longest maturity for which there are enough traded bonds. An Ultimate Forward Rate (UFR) macro-economically defined as the sum of the average of past real interest rates and central bank's target inflation is also considered. Discount rates between the LLP and the UFR maturities are obtained by extrapolation.
The yield curves used by AXA for main currencies are summarized in Note 12.1.6.
The Group has chosen to apply the 'OCI option' (refer to paragraph 1.21.2) to all portfolio of insurance contracts, allowing to recognize the impact of changes in discount rates through Other Comprehensive Income (OCI).
### 1.14.3.4 Risk adjustment for non-financial risk (RA)
The measurement of the RA reflects the compensation required by AXA for bearing the uncertainty around the amount and timing of the future cash flows that arises from non-financial risk as AXA fulfils insurance contracts. In this respect, the Group considers the 62.5th-67.5th percentile range as the adequate level of prudence on underlying insurance liabilities.
The determination of the risk adjustment follows a value-at-risk type approach, reflecting a retained confidence level with reference to the risk drivers of insurance liabilities. The value-at-risk is the maximum loss within a certain confidence level. The implementation is slightly different between Life & Health and Property & Casualty businesses. For Life & Health, the groups of contracts are first shocked, risk factor by risk factor, up to the retained confidence level to assess the change in the present value of future cash flows. Then, diversification benefits between risks implicit to the entity's portfolio are considered by applying correlation factors between risks. For Property & Casualty liabilities for incurred claims, a direct value-at-risk calculation, reflecting the retained confidence level, is applied to the full probability distribution of the related liabilities. Finally, a diversification effect between AXA entities is considered to reflect the fact that the same risk is unlikely to impact all the Group's entities at the same time.

— PDF page 445 —

[Chart/image description:] Two-column introductory text explaining components not included in the claims development table.

  • "Estimate of gross liabilities not developed" corresponding to the estimate of gross liabilities of incurred claims prior to 2016 and of claims incurred before the acquisition date of acquired entities (e.g. AXA XL claims incurred before 2018) as well as gross liabilities not developed, notably annuities and construction (€29,192 million);
  • "Effect of discounting" being the discounting impact (€-17,587 million);
  • "RA" being the risk adjustment for non-financial risk (€1,573 million).
As a consequence, the claims development that can be deducted from the 10 years claims development table below does not correspond to the prior year development shown in the Profit or Loss.
