CONTINUITY AND SUSTAINABILITY OF THE SCHEME ARE GUARANTEED

Collective negotiation every 2 to 3 years to ensure financial balance “over the cycle”

– A legal obligation for a balanced budget (Labour Code Art. L 5422-12) – Definition of the mechanisms for a 2 to 3 years term, depending upon the financial situation of the unemployment insurance, the job market and unemployment figures – Adjustable variables in order to reach equilibrium:

  • Contribution rate
  • Compensation rights
  • Amount and duration of benefits

– NEW measures: The last collective negotiation of April 2017 witnessed the decision to implement new

measures for the Unemployment insurance scheme. The new set of measures are expected to generate savings projected around €900M by 2022. The new rules implementation will start in October 2017 after the necessary change in ACOSS and Pole emploi IT systems.

A scheme with a tacit guarantee from the French government

– Compulsory nature of the unemployment insurance (Labour Code Art. L 5422-13) – Ministerial approval of the insurance agreements (Labour Code Art. L 5422-21) – Unédic is substituted by the government take-over should the social partners and employers’ organisations fail and reach an agreement or obtain its governmental approval

Bonds issuance supported by an explicit State guarantee, renewed since 2011

  • Amending Finance Law of 30 December 2016 (article 36): authorisation to provide guarantee
  • Ministerial Order granting the guarantee (6 March 2017)

Investor Presentation - May 2017 9

UNÉDIC RESEARCH AND FINANCIAL FORECAST Projections updated three times a year

– Based on macro-economic fundamentals from the Consensus of Economists:

  • Forecast in change of GDP rate
  • CPI

– Monitoring of the working population, wage rate change, unemployment benefits paid, etc.

A steering tool for social partners

– Forecasts reviewed by unemployment insurance managers. – A reference for the social partners negotiating the agreements:

Unédic has an obligation to conduct a 3 year forecast and analysis of cyclical effects on its finances

– Finance Law for 2014-2019 Art. 29: “Unédic reports every year to the Parliament and the Government, before the 30 June at the latest, its three year financial forecast, detailing in particular the cyclical effects of salaried employment evolution on the financial balance of the unemployment insurance scheme”

UNÉDIC CYCLICAL AND STRUCTURAL DEBT RESEARCH

Unédic research and analysis on the cyclical and structural balance of its debt

– Unédic has to keep a balanced budget over the economic cycle – The social partners have made the choice to prioritize their mission and the social nature of unemployment insurance which is to serve a replacement revenue to eligible jobseekers and help them return to employment – 2014 Finance Law prompted Unédic to conduct further analysis on its debt and the identification

  • f its structural and cyclical components

– Unédic uses the methodology used by international organizations (IMF, OECD…) to measure the cyclical component of its year-end result based on the analysis of the “output gap” estimating the present position in the economic cycle

A “LEVERAGE EFFECT” UPON THE BALANCE OF UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE With the current parameters of unemployment insurance (contribution rate and compensation rate), the contributions of roughly 9 affiliated employees are necessary to compensate 1 jobseeker

1 employee losing his job has a compounded negative effect upon the finances of unemployment insurance:

  • 1 contributor

+ 9 contributions consumed 1 jobseeker finding a job has an enhanced positive effect upon unemployment insurance finances: + 1 contributor + 9 contributions available There usually is a delay of 6 months to a year before this levered effect can be noticed

SAVINGS GENERATED BY THE NEW 2017 RULES FOR UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE

  • The 2017 agreement should generate up to €300M each year thanks to the

0,05% additional exceptional contribution paid by employers for the next three years. Considering the same legal framework, 10% of the additionnal revenue will be redistributed to Pôle emploi.

  • Meanwhile, from 2018 to 2020, thanks to the new set of measures, Unédic

expenditures are projected to decrease by €280-400M each year.

  • Total gain for Unédic financial situation is projected to be worth €550M for

2018 and €600M for 2019.

  • From 2021, raising to 53 years old the eligibility for receiving longer

unemployment benefits will start to produce effects and further decrease Unédic expenditures. Eventually, the measure should achieve full effects by 2022 and represents savings of €900M.
