What's staying the same?

Strategy

IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 do not change our strategy or the way we do business.

Cash generation

Our cashflows stay the same under IFRS 17. It's the timing of

profit recognition that will change.

Dividends and capital

There is no impact to

our regulatory capital position or dividend paying capacity.

Our dividend policy remains the same as set out in the Annual Report 2022.

What's changing?

Proforma and KPI changes

The way we report will look different under IFRS 17 and our KPIs will be revised to reflect IFRS 17 metrics.

Reserving approach

Our reserving approach and setting of the risk adjustment will align to IFRS 17 principles.

Introduction of

Discounting

IFRS 17 requires that insurance cashflows are on a discounted basis. We have adopted the 'bottom up' approach to discounting.

Interest rate movement will be shown in the Profit & Loss as part of our net insurance and investment result.
