To our stakeholders:

I am pleased to confirm that AXA Seguros S.A. de C.V. reaffirms its support of the Ten Principles of the United Nations Global Compact in the areas of Human Rights, Labour, Environment and Anti-Corruption.

In this annual Communication on Progress, we describe our actions to continually improve the integration of the Global Compact and its principles into our business strategy, culture and daily operations. We also commit to sharing this information with our stakeholders using our primary channels of communication.

Sincerely yours,

Daniel Bandle, CEO

The AXA Group, just as AXA Mexico, is committed to respecting internationally recognized human rights principles as defined by the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the core standards of the International Labour Organization and the Guiding Principles for the implementation of the United Nations "Protect, Respect and Remedy" Framework ("Ruggie Principles"). Our policy also reflects our commitment to international general and sector-specific standards such as the UN Global Compact, the UN Principles for Responsible Investment and the UN Principles for Sustainable Insurance.

AXA's Human Rights policy is based on an assessment we used to identify the Human rights impacted by the business activities of insurance companies (i.e. insurance, investment, own operations) and to define priority areas for Human rights due diligence at AXA. The "Responsibility to respect Human rights", as laid down in the Ruggie principles, formed the basis for this assessment. It requires that business enterprises:

- Avoid causing or contributing to adverse Human rights impacts through their own activities, and address such impacts when they occur;
- Seek to prevent or mitigate adverse Human rights impacts that are directly linked to their operations, products or services by their business relationships, even if they have not contributed to those impacts.

The scope of the assessment thus included AXA's Human rights impacts in relation to its employees and insurance customers as well as Human rights impacts caused by AXA's business partners in the areas investment, insurance and procurement. Taking into account AXA's ability to influence compliance with Human rights standards, the analysis focused on business partners with whom AXA has a contractual relationships as well as investments where AXA has a significant level of control.

The basis for the identification of Human rights was the International Bill of Human rights consisting of the Universal Declaration of Human rights (UDHR); the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR); and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESR).

The list consisting of over 35 Human rights was analyzed to determine whether an insurance company could have adverse impacts on human rights or whether an insurance company would have the ability to protect or mitigate possible violations of these rights. For each Human right it was determined whether it was relevant for each of the business activities conducted by AXA. The resulting list of “relevant” Human rights was then "clustered" and used as the starting point to analyze which business activities of AXA might impact the relevant Human rights identified.

• To support LGBT inclusion at the office, the company has awareness activities for LGBT+ inclusion. The Pride flag was placed in the main building in Mexico City, Guadalajara, Chihuahua and Querétaro to create awareness and as an official statement of AXA Mexico as an ally for LGBT community.

• AXA Mexico developed an ""LGBT+ allies' guide"" in which recommendations to be an ally, to include, and to respect others, were gathered. One of the most important achievements in terms of I&D was a certification with "Norma Mexicana de Igualdad Laboral y No Discriminación", which means that AXA Mexico has achieved objectives such as non-discriminative processes within HR (recruitment, talent and development management) and a solid process for employees to speak up if they witness or suffer from discrimination, among other important topics.

• As promotion of freedom of association, social dialogue and employee representation, all employees of the company can choose whether they are represented by a labour union. The local law prohibits the intervention of the company in union matters. All the union representatives participate in company projects.

• The company has an integral whistleblowing policy, that considers the escalations of allegations to the ones accountable for them, classifies its nature, and provides possible responses for such cases. The Whistleblowing scalation process in Mexico is at a mature stage and responds to the AXA Group´s standards due to:
o Formal policy addressing according with Group Investigation Standard
o Communication to employees
o Existence of escalation channels (Ethic Committee)
o Investigation Reports for Special & Material cases
o Main roles & responsibilities in the investigation process have been defined within the 3 lines of defined and business (Compliance, HR, UNE & Internal Audit)

• The company has implemented several disabilities-awareness sessions with experts.

The science and political ambition show there is a need for strong collective action to fight climate change. Climate change is a medium to long-term risk, with a complex quantification of impacts on our activities. AXA’s strategy is not only to adapt, but also to take advantage of our expertise to provide solutions. Indeed, insurers are well equipped to contribute to the understanding of climate change through their risk management expertise, the vast number of claims data they collect, and the research they can fund to address climate-related risks. They also have a duty to disseminate knowledge about new risks. Through their underwriting decisions, they can also show the risks society is taking and foster prevention actions to mitigate them. Finally, through their significant investments, they are also well positioned to send the right signals to the investment community and to the specific companies they invest in, for example by leveraging the framework developed by the TaskForce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).

AXA’s climate strategy currently includes the following initiatives:

-Investments: investing in green assets, Impact Investing, divesting from certain carbon-intensive industries (coal and oil sands), climate-related shareholder engagement, climate risk analysis with a long-term view. This work notably explores advanced “portfolio alignment” and “cost of climate” metrics in line with the TCFD framework. This insightful “temperature” approach helps to raise awareness on the need to factor “transition” pathways into climate risk analyses.

- Insurance: underwriting restrictions on the coal and oil sands industries, “green/sustainable” products in both Property & Casualty and Life & Savings ranges, promotion of new insurance solutions designed for developing countries (typically parametric insurance). As a signatory of the UN Principles for Sustainable Insurance, AXA is committed to “work together with our clients and business partners to raise awareness of environmental, social and governance issues, manage risk and develop solutions.”, as mentioned in the Principle n°2. When relevant, AXA will discuss about Climate or ESG material issues with some of its Corporate clients, and on a more long term and systematic approach, AXA has also initiated this conversation with some of its brokers, either on a one to one format or in the context of the UN Principles for Sustainable Insurance initiatives and forums. .

- Operations: direct environmental footprint targets covering energy & carbon emissions, water and paper
.
- Thought leadership, NGO partnerships, academic research (AXA Research Fund), public / private partnerships to foster prevention. .

More recently, the Group has also decided to start addressing the interrelated issue of biodiversity loss through a comprehensive strategy that will be gradually rolled out.

• As part of AXA Group, AXA Mexico participates in the annual report of Environmental Footprint, by reporting and monitoring the energy and resource consumption of the offices and operations. Such report includes the consumption of Water, Energy, the amount of trash generated, the amount of paper used, and the mileage on flights and fleet’s operations. The company evaluates each quarter the values to verify its decrease according to the 2030 and 2050 objectives.

• The company considers Climate Change a key aspect of its sustainability strategy, by integrating the topic into investment guidelines, environmentally sustainably offers, and research policy output. AXA Mexico works on a comprehensive sustainability strategy, that involves the efforts and initiatives from teams and facilities that in 2020 implemented clean energy in 6 sites, the digitalization of processes across business lines, the strategy from Investment, and a trash challenge during Corporate Responsibility week. Additionally, the Green Champions Community continue rising awareness through activities and communication. ESG factors are actively integrated in investments policy and decisions.

One of the programs focuses on reconstruction and home insurance in Union Hidalgo to reinforce the resilience of the community in case of natural phenomena. Other of the programs provides a resilient community prototype in Escuinapa, Sinaloa. The coastal municipality is highly exposed to hydrometeorological events. Due to the climate change effects, the natural events' frequency and magnitude has increased. In consequence, the larger rainy season causes more floods and damages in the municipality. To strength the resilience of the community, the prototype includes the comprehensive housing reconstruction for vulnerable families, home and life insurance. Also, AXA Mexico provides tele-health to the beneficiaries.
