BNP Paribas launched a platform facilitating access to goods for its most vulnerable customers, including access to MOBILIZE offers, and notably the offer of Lease with Option to Purchase a new car. The initiative is based on an economic model which makes leasing a new vehicle less expensive than buying a very old used vehicle. The latter is often the only affordable option for those on low incomes, but ends up being more expensive in the long term due to higher maintenance costs. In addition to its positive economic impact, the program also has other measurable targets including reducing unemployment, reducing stress and insecurity and decreasing CO 2 emissions. With this facilitation of access to goods, Groupe Renault in France is targeting 10,000 Mobilize LOAs (Leases with Option to Purchase) per year from 2023. A pilot in shared mobility scheme in Africa For the past two years, the CSR and Innovation departments have been working on a pilot scheme to be launched in 2021, that will allow us to test the relevance of an electric and shared mobility offer based on mini solar plants in African villages.

Renault Corporate Foundation 2.4.6 Launched in 2001, the Renault Foundation initially focused on supporting associations and academic programs of excellence directly linked to inclusion and sustainable mobility.

The projects it supports are designed to restore equal opportunities in terms of professional integration, to create bridges between the educational and In addition to supporting these associations, the Renault Foundation aims to engage employees on a unifying theme, thereby meeting the need for a sense of purpose that is increasingly prevalent in their expectations. That is why, during the COVID-19 health crisis, the Foundation set up a platform to help employees get in touch with associations looking for volunteers or seeking financial donations. In December 2020, the Renault Foundation reiterated this initiative by organizing a Christmas fundraising drive to support the Restos du Coeur. Finally, with the end of its support for academic programs in September 2020, the Foundation is supporting its last students (72 people) until they obtain their diplomas so that they can begin their professional lives.
