Natixis Investment Managers and MFEX have entered exclusive negotiations for the sale of the
whole capital of Axeltis – the fund distribution platform – to MFEX. The plan is for the divestment
to be coupled with the signature of a long-term partnership with MFEX providing for the openarchitecture
distribution of funds within BPCE Group (the Caisses d’Epargne and Banques
Populaires networks), together with Natixis Wealth Management and Natixis Assurances.

In a fast-concentrating industry, the deal would consolidate MFEX’s position as an expert of international
funds distribution, by reinforcing its market share in Europe and Asia and rounding out its existing offering
with innovative and efficient solutions both for distributors and investment managers.

Underpinned by this new long-term agreement with Groupe BPCE, Axeltis is earmarked to join a
specialist distribution services group and become an important component of its international
development strategy.

With this project, Natixis Investment Managers continues to dynamically manage its business portfolio by
focusing expansion on asset management activities.

The project is subject to consultation with the personnel representative bodies of the different companies
concerned.
