II. Multi-Year Digital Accessibility Plan<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Accessibility Policy<\/h5>\n

In accordance with Article 47 of French Law No. 2005-102 of 11 February 2005 on equal rights and opportunities, participation and citizenship for persons with disabilities, online public communication services must be accessible to all.<\/p>\n

The Groupe Banque Richelieu is committed to a continuous improvement approach to the digital accessibility of its online services.<\/p>\n

This approach is structured through the present multi-year digital accessibility plan, supplemented by annual action plans, aimed at supporting progressive compliance with the General Accessibility Improvement Framework (RGAA) and enhancing the usability of the digital services provided.<\/p>\n

In this context, the Group has launched a strategic initiative to transform its digital ecosystem, with the objective of consolidating its existing websites into a unified Group platform.<\/p>\n

1.1 Commitment of Groupe Banque Richelieu<\/h5>\n

Digital accessibility is a core pillar of Groupe Banque Richelieu\u2019s digital strategy.<\/p>\n

It is integrated into the design, redevelopment, and maintenance of digital services, with the objective of achieving a progressive and sustainable improvement in the accessibility of interfaces and content.<\/p>\n

Within the ongoing redesign programme aimed at implementing a single multi-entity Group website, Groupe Banque Richelieu aims to achieve the highest possible level of compliance with the RGAA from the design phase of the new platform onwards.<\/p>\n

Digital accessibility refers to making online public communication services usable by persons with disabilities by ensuring content is:<\/p>\n

\u2022 perceivable, particularly through text alternatives and adapted multimedia content;
\u2022 operable, including keyboard navigation and non-restrictive interfaces;
\u2022 understandable, through clear, consistent, and predictable content;
\u2022 robust, compatible with current and future assistive technologies.<\/p>\n

Disability is understood as any limitation of activity or restriction of participation in society resulting from a long-term or permanent impairment of physical, sensory, mental, cognitive, or psychological functions.<\/p>\n

1.4 Scope of Services Covered<\/h5>\n

The scope of Groupe Banque Richelieu currently includes several websites and digital services:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Banque Richelieu GCC (sister company)
\u2022 Banque Richelieu Switzerland
\u2022 Richelieu Invest
\u2022 Richelieu Corporate Finance<\/p>\n

Within the ongoing digital transformation programme, these websites are intended to be progressively consolidated into a single unified multi-entity Group digital platform.<\/p>\n

The services concerned include websites, intranets, extranets, and associated web or mobile applications.<\/p>\n

Certain content may fall outside the scope of accessibility obligations, including third-party content not under control, archived content, or content subject to duly justified technical constraints.<\/p>\n

2. Human and Financial Resources<\/h5>\n

\u2022 inclusive design principles;
\u2022 RGAA standards;
\u2022 enhanced user journey requirements.<\/p>\n

3.4 User Testing<\/h5>\n

User testing may be conducted, particularly within the redesign programme, including where possible users with disabilities in order to assess the real accessibility of interfaces.<\/p>\n

3.5 Procurement and Tendering<\/h5>\n

Digital accessibility requirements are progressively integrated into Groupe Banque Richelieu\u2019s procurement processes and tendering procedures.<\/p>\n

They may constitute an evaluation criterion for service providers, particularly regarding their ability to comply with RGAA requirements.<\/p>\n

3.6 Recruitment<\/h5>\n

Group Banque Richelieu ensures that digital accessibility skills are considered in profiles involved in digital projects.<\/p>\n

3.8 Monitoring Process<\/h5>\n

Each digital service is subject to a progressive assessment of its accessibility level.<\/p>\n

Within the digital transformation programme, an RGAA accessibility audit is planned for 2027 in order to assess the compliance of existing services and the new Group platform.<\/p>\n
