  • Improving financial and human resources performance

Employee savings plans help companies to optimise their payroll costs and boost their image as employers. These plans represent a benefit that both motivates employees and encourages loyalty to the company.

Natixis Interépargne supports organisations of all sizes, from major multinationals to small and mid-sized companies. Its objective is to meet each company’s expectations in terms of supplementary remuneration in the interest of adding lasting value to its human resources strategy.

In this context, Natixis Interépargne actively participates in lobbying activities on supplementary income issues and plays a major role in innovation.

Natixis Interépargne is also a forerunner in providing services for both employees and businesses. Corporate comparison tools use data provided by the Club de l’Épargne Salariale (an association of employee savings banking institutions) and include a barometer to measure employer matching contributions. 

  • Highly competitive savings support services

Employee savings plans offer their beneficiaries unequalled financial and tax benefits. Once employees are vested, they have access to a tax-deductible savings account they can use however they wish (excluding fees owed for capital gains). Due to its attractive tax advantages and potential employer matching contributions, the returns on employee savings plans are usually greater than for other savings accounts.

  • Unused vacation days account

For companies operating in France, unused vacation day accounts are a valuable resourcing tool. Depending on the plan’s provisions, an unused vacation day account can also enable employees to:

  • conserve days off or the monetary equivalent for use at a later date when they are not working,
  • receive employer contributions,
  • make additional contributions to an employee savings account (Company Savings Plan, PEI or PERCO).
