Our Commitments: Beyond Business

Natixis CIB APAC is committed to creating sustainable value for its clients, employees and the communities in which we live and work.

Diversity & Inclusion

Natixis CIB APAC is committed to promoting the values of diversity and inclusion in the Asia Pacific region. This is a vital part of our long-term sustainability and commercial success and therefore integral to achieving our strategic objectives. We’re dedicated to fostering a culture of collaboration that supports employee growth — and are deeply committed to strong corporate governance.

Natixis APAC launched DANA - Diversity @ Natixis CIB Asia Pacific - an Employee Resource Group that promotes and fosters Diversity and Inclusion in Natixis CIB across the region, with a focus on gender, nationality and equal opportunity.

"We consciously strive to create an environment that includes a wide range of people, cultures and communities. A commitment to inclusive diversity helps us attract the best people from the broadest talent pool and fosters higher levels of employee engagement, productivity, performance and innovation. It differentiates Natixis CIB as an employer of choice.

Commercially, a diverse workforce gives us a competitive advantage, enabling us to better understand the needs of different clients and stakeholders and to drive creativity and innovation. This leads to superior client solutions that benefit from our varied experiences of markets, products, services and industries."

— Bruno Le Saint

CEO, Corporate & Investment Banking, Asia Pacific

Long-Term Partnership with PSE For a Child's Smile

Learning and development is at the heart of our core beliefs and forms the basis of our growth strategy at Natixis CIB. In Asia Pacific, we have chosen to establish a long-term partnership with PSE for a Child’s Smile in Cambodia, to support their mission to bring relief to poverty-stricken children. The educational initiatives supported by Natixis in the country aim at providing underprivileged children a chance to realize their full potential.

Natixis’ involvement with PSE For a Child Smile goes beyond financial support, fundraising activities and donations, and will make a difference by:

Refurbishing a school in Phnom Penh, with a capacity of 200 students
Sending Natixis CIB volunteers to Cambodia once a year through the duration of this long-term partnership, and other volunteering actions delivered throughout the engagement period
Tutoring students through internships offered by Natixis CIB APAC, to those enrolled in the Business School program provided by PSE For a Child’s Smile.
