Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements

 

A1 - Basis of preparation

(a) The condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months to 30 June 2012 have been prepared in accordance with the disclosure and transparency rules of the Financial Services Authority and using International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and endorsed by the European Union (EU). These include IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, which specifically addresses the contents of interim condensed financial statements. The results apply the accounting policies set out in Aviva plc's 2011 Annual Report and Accounts and these interim accounts should be read in conjunction with the financial statements therein.

In 2010, the IASB issued an amendment to IFRS 7, Financial Instruments - Disclosures, relating to the transfer of financial assets, which has been endorsed by the EU. It is applicable for the first time in the current accounting period and is reflected in the Group's financial reporting, with no material impact.

The results for the six months to 30 June 2012 are unaudited but have been reviewed by the auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. The comparative results for the six months to 30 June 2011 are also unaudited but were reviewed by the previous auditor, Ernst & Young LLP. The interim results do not constitute statutory accounts as defined in Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The results for the full year 2011 have been taken from the Group's 2011 Annual Report and Accounts and do not in themselves constitute statutory accounts. Ernst & Young LLP reported on the 2011 financial statements and their report was unqualified and did not contain a Statement under section 498 (2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006. The Group's 2011 Report and Accounts has been filed with the Registrar of Companies.

After making enquiries, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group as a whole have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the interim financial statements.

 

(b) Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured in the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates (the 'functional currency'). The consolidated financial statements are stated in sterling, which is the Company's functional and presentational currency. Unless otherwise noted, the amounts shown in the financial statements are in millions of pounds sterling (£m).

 

(c) The long-term nature of much of the Group's operations means that, for management's decision-making and internal performance management, short-term realised and unrealised investment gains and losses are treated as non-operating items. The Group focuses instead on an operating profit measure (also referred to as adjusted operating profit) that incorporates an expected return on investments supporting its long-term and non-long-term businesses. Operating profit for long-term business is based on expected investment returns on financial investments backing shareholder and policyholder funds over the reporting period, with allowance for the corresponding expected movements in liabilities. Variances between actual and expected investment returns, and the impact of changes in economic assumptions on liabilities, are disclosed separately outside operating profit. For non-long-term business, the total investment income, including realised and unrealised gains, is analysed between that calculated using a longer-term return and short-term fluctuations from that level. Operating profit also excludes amortisation and impairment of goodwill and intangibles; the profit or loss on disposal of subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates; integration and restructuring costs; and exceptional items.

 

(d) On 19 April 2012, the Company announced a restructuring of the organisation into two distinct areas - Developed Markets and Higher Growth Markets. As a result, the operating segments in our reported results were reviewed to ensure that they remained consistent with the new organisational reporting structure. This has resulted in changes to the operating segments as described in note A4.

 

A2 - Exchange rates

The Group's principal overseas operations during the period were located within the Eurozone and the United States. The results and cash flows of these operations have been translated into sterling at the average rates for the period and the assets and liabilities have been translated at the period end rates as follows:

 

6 months 2012

6 months2011

Full year 2011

- Average rate (€1 equals)

£0.82

- Average rate ($US1 equals)

£0.63

£0.62

£0.63

- Period end rate ($US1 equals)

£0.64

£0.62

£0.65

Total foreign currency movements during the period relating to the translation by businesses of transactions not denominated in their local reporting currency resulted in a gain recognised in the income statement of £50 million (HY11: £61 million gain; FY11: £35 million loss).

A3 - Subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates

This note provides details of the acquisitions and disposals of subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates that the Group has made during the period, together with details of businesses held for sale at the period end.

(a) Acquisitions

Pelayo Vida

On 17 January 2012, the Group acquired 50% of Pelayo Mondiale Vida de Seguros y Reaseguros SA ("PMV"), which writes long-term insurance business in Spain, for £7 million. The Group also entered into an exclusive distribution agreement with Grupo Pelayo to expand its national life and pensions distribution capability through Pelayo's network of branches and agents. PMV was subsequently renamed Pelayo Vida de Seguros y Reaseguros SA ("PV"). As the Group has management control of PV, this company has been treated as a subsidiary since acquisition.

The estimated book and fair values of PV's assets and liabilities at the acquisition date are shown below. The acquisition has given rise to goodwill of £1 million, calculated as follows:

(i) Irish long-term business

Our Irish long-term business is carried out through a subsidiary, Aviva Life Holdings Ireland Limited ("ALHI"), which is 75% owned by Aviva and 25% owned by Allied Irish Bank ("AIB"). ALHI holds four subsidiaries, one of which is Ark Life Assurance Company Limited ("Ark Life") which carries out bancassurance business via a distribution agreement with AIB. The original distribution agreement was renewable in 2011 but, on 15 December 2011, AIB notified us that they did not wish to renew it and the existing shareholders' agreement governing ALHI was terminated. The termination of this agreement triggered the ability for both parties to exercise put and call options that will result in the unwind of the original structure such that the Ark Life business returns 100% to AIB and the Group will purchase the 25% minority stake in ALHI. The formal exercise of these options was approved on 17 January 2012 and, as a result, the Ark Life business became held for sale on that date. Any change in that company's ownership is subject to regulatory approval in Ireland, and completion is not expected until later in 2012.

The shareholders' agreement with AIB specifies that calculation of the Ark Life exit value should be based on the embedded value of the business at 31 December 2011. This is estimated as £262 million, which is lower than its carrying value following impairments charged in 2011. As a result, a further charge to profit of £91 million has been recognised in the six months ended 30 June 2012, after exchange movements on the opening balance of £7 million.

The exercise of the put options in January 2012 over AIB's minority share in ALHI led to our reclassifying £205 million from non-controlling interests within equity to financial liabilities as at 31 December 2011. Our current estimate of the liability as at 30 June 2012 is £110 million, resulting in a credit to the income statement of £89 million after exchange movements on the opening balance of £6 million.

The net impact of these two movements is a charge to profit of £2 million, before exchange movements. Finalisation of the exit value for Ark Life and the purchase value for the minority share in ALHI is subject to the conclusion of discussions with AIB.

(ii) Czech Republic, Hungary and Romania

During 2011, the Group decided to sell, and was actively marketing, its operations in the Czech Republic, Hungary and Romania.On 30 January 2012, we announced the sale of these businesses to MetLife, Inc. The sale of our businesses in the Czech Republicand Hungary, and of our Romania life operation, completed on 31 July 2012. The sale of our Romania pensions business is still subject to regulatory approval and is expected to complete later in 2012. The assets and liabilities of all these businesses have therefore been classified as held for sale at their expected disposal proceeds in the consolidated statement of financial position at 30 June 2012.

(iii) Revised strategic plan

On 5 July 2012, we announced a revised strategic plan which included a review of all the Group's businesses into those that are performing, improving or non-core. Although the review may lead to future disposals of some of the non-core businesses, no firm decisions have been made in this respect and the criteria required by IFRS 5, Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, to classify any such businesses as held for sale as at 30 June 2012, apart from those in the table above, had not been met.

(d) Subsequent event - Delta Lloyd

On 5 July 2012, the Group sold 37.2 million shares in Delta Lloyd N.V. ("Delta Lloyd") (the Group's Dutch long-term insurance, general insurance and fund management associate) for £313 million (net of costs), reducing our holding to 19.8% of Delta Lloyd's ordinary share capital, representing 18.6% of shareholder voting rights. As the Group no longer has significant influence over Delta Lloyd, we have ceased to account for that company as an associate from 5 July 2012. From that date, our holding is now classified as a financial investment, held at fair value through profit and loss.

The recoverable amount of Delta Lloyd at 30 June 2012 has been determined on the basis of fair value less costs to sell. The fair value at that date has been calculated based on the price achieved in the transaction described above for the shares sold on 5 July and, for the continuing shareholding, on the market price of Delta Lloyd's ordinary shares quoted on NYSE Euronext Amsterdam as at 30 June 2012.

No impairment has been recognised because the carrying value of the associate is less than its recoverable amount. During the period, the Group's share of Delta Lloyd's net asset value declined to a value below its quoted market value and therefore the impairment recognised in 2011 to reduce the carrying value of the associate to the quoted market value was redundant and no longer required. The amount previously recognised as an impairment of £205 million has therefore been reversed during the current period, after exchange movements on the opening balance of £12 million.

(e) Impairment of goodwill and other intangibles - United States

Following the business review, the Directors have concluded that the goodwill and other intangible assets associated with the US long-term cash generating unit and associated investment management business are no longer recoverable. As a result, impairments of £787 million in relation to goodwill and £89 million in relation to other intangibles have been recognised during the period, reducing the carrying value of goodwill and other intangibles to £nil.

A4 - Segmental information

The Group's results can be segmented, either by activity or by geography. Our primary reporting format is on market reporting lines, with supplementary information being given by business activity. This note provides segmental information on the condensed consolidated income statement and condensed consolidated statement of financial position.

(a) Operating segments

Following the announcement in Q2 2012 relating to the restructuring of the Group, the Group's operating segments were changedto align them with the new organisational reporting structure. The new segments are set out below. Results for prior periods have been restated to facilitate comparison with this new structure. The Group has determined its operating segments along market reporting lines. These reflect the management structure whereby a member of the Executive Management team is accountable to the Group Executive Chairman for the operating segment for which they are responsible.The activities of each operating segment are described below:

United Kingdom and Ireland

The United Kingdom and Ireland comprises two operating segments - Life and General Insurance. In October 2011 it was announced that management control of the Irish life and general insurance businesses was being transferred from Aviva Europe to the UK, with the UK Life and General Insurance businesses taking control of the respective components.

The principal activities of our UK and Ireland Life operations are life insurance, long-term health and accident insurance, savings, pensions and annuity business, whilst UK and Ireland General Insurance provides insurance cover to individuals and businesses, for risks associated mainly with motor vehicles, property and liability (such as employers' liability and professional indemnity liability) and medical expenses. For the period to its disposal on 30 September 2011, UK and Ireland General Insurance also includes the RAC motor recovery business.

France

The principal activities of our French operations are long-term business and general insurance. The long-term business offers a range of long-term insurance and savings products, primarily for individuals, with a focus on the unit-linked market. The general insurance business predominantly sells personal and small commercial lines insurance products through agents and a direct insurer.

United States

The principal activity of the United States operations is long-term business, providing fixed life insurance and fixed annuities with a focus on index products, through more than 50 key distribution partners.

Canada

The principal activity of the Canadian operation is general insurance. In particular it provides personal and commercial lines insurance products through a range of distribution partners.

Italy, Spain and Other

These countries are not individually significant at a group level, so have been aggregated into a single reporting segment in line with IFRS8. This segment includes our operations in other developed markets including Italy and Spain. It also includes our Czech, Hungarian and Romanian businesses which are held for sale as well as our Reinsurance and Run Off businesses. The principal activities of our Italian operations are long-term business and general insurance. The life business offers a range of long-term insurance and savings products. The general insurance business provides motor and home insurance products to individuals, as well as small commercial risk insurance to businesses. The principal activity of the Spanish operation is the sale of long-term business, accident and health insurance and a selection of savings products.

Higher Growth markets

Activities reported in the higher growth markets operating segment include our businesses in Asia, Poland, Turkey and Russia. Our activities in Asia principally comprise our long-term business operations in China, India, Singapore, Hong Kong, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Malaysia, South Korea, Vietnam and Indonesia, as well as our General Insurance operations in Singapore and Indonesia. Our activities in Poland and Turkey comprise both long-term business and General Insurance operations, while in Russia they comprise long-term business operations.

Aviva Investors

Aviva Investors operates in most of the markets in which the Group operates, in particular the UK, France, the US and Canada and other international businesses, managing policyholders' and shareholders' invested funds, providing investment management services for institutional pension fund mandates and managing a range of retail investment products, including investment funds, unit trusts, OEICs and ISAs.

Other Group activities

Investment return on centrally held assets and head office expenses, such as Group treasury and finance functions, together with certain taxes and financing costs arising on central borrowings are included in 'Other Group activities'. Similarly, central core structural borrowings and certain tax balances are included in 'Other Group activities' in the segmental statement of financial position. Also included here are consolidation and elimination adjustments and the Group's continuing interest in Delta Lloyd as an associate.

Discontinued operations

On 6 May 2011 the Group ceased to hold a majority of the shareholder voting rights in Delta Lloyd and therefore the results of Delta Lloyd up to 6 May 2011 are presented as discontinued operations for the comparative periods. After this date, the Group ceased to consolidate Delta Lloyd.

Measurement basis

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those for the Group as a whole. Any transactions between the business segments are on normal commercial terms and market conditions. The Group evaluates performance of operating segments on the basis of:

(i) profit or loss from operations before tax attributable to shareholders

(ii) profit or loss from operations before tax attributable to shareholders, adjusted for non-operating items outside the segment management's control, including investment market performance and fiscal policy changes.

(b) Further analysis by products and services

The Group's results can be further analysed by products and services which comprise long-term business, general insurance and health, fund management and other activities.

Long-term business

Our long-term business comprises life insurance, long-term health and accident insurance, savings, pensions and annuity business written by our life insurance subsidiaries, including managed pension fund business and our share of the other life and related business written in our associates and joint ventures, as well as lifetime mortgage business written in the UK.

General insurance and health

Our general insurance and health business provides insurance cover to individuals and to small and medium sized businesses, for risks associated mainly with motor vehicles, property and liability, such as employers' liability and professional indemnity liability, and medical expenses.

Fund management

Our fund management business invests policyholders' and shareholders' funds, provides investment management services for institutional pension fund mandates and manages a range of retail investment products, including investment funds, unit trusts, OEICs and ISAs. Clients include Aviva Group businesses and third-party financial institutions, pension funds, public sector organisations, investment professionals and private investors.

Other

Other includes the RAC non-insurance operations (up to the disposal date of 30 September 2011), service companies, head office expenses, such as Group treasury and finance functions, and certain financing costs and taxes not allocated to business segments.

Delta Lloyd

In the products and services analysis, the results of Delta Lloyd up to 6 May 2011 are presented as discontinued operations. After this date, the Group's share of the results of its retained interest in Delta Lloyd as an associate are shown only within other activities within continuing operations.

A5 - Tax continued

The tax charge/(credit) attributable to policyholders' returns is removed from the Group's total (loss)/profit before tax in arriving at the Group's (losses)/profits before tax attributable to shareholders' profits. As the net of tax profits attributable to with-profit and unit-linked policyholders is zero, the Group's pre-tax profit/(loss) attributable to policyholders is an amount equal and opposite to the tax charge/(credit) attributable to policyholders included in the total tax charge/(credit). The difference between the policyholder tax charge/(credit) and the impact of this item in the tax reconciliation can be explained as follows:

The UK corporation tax rate reduced to 24% from 1 April 2012. This rate, as substantively enacted by 30 June 2012, has been used in the calculation of the UK's deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period. A subsequent reduction in the UK corporation tax rate to 23% was substantively enacted in July 2012 and will apply from 1 April 2013. As announced in the 2012 Budget, the rate is expected to reduce further to 22% from 1 April 2014. The aggregate impact of the reductions in rate from 24% to 22% would reduce the deferred tax assets and liabilities and increase IFRS net assets by approximately £65 million and will be recognised when the legislation is substantively enacted.

Finance Act 2012 included initial legislation introducing considerable changes to the regime for taxing UK life insurance companies applicable from 1 January 2013. The impact of this legislation will be included in the results of the Group for the year ending 31 December 2012. It is not expected that these changes will have a material detrimental impact on the Group's deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Subsequent to 30 June 2012, the directors proposed an interim dividend for 2012 of 10 pence per ordinary share (HY11: 10 pence), amounting to £292 million (HY11: £287 million) in total. The dividend will be paid on 16 November and will be accounted for as an appropriation of retained earnings in the year ending 31 December 2012.

Interest on the direct capital instruments issued in November 2004 and the fixed rate notes issued in May 2012 is treated as an appropriation of retained profits and, accordingly, is accounted for when paid. Tax relief is obtained at a rate of 24.5% (2011: 26.5%).

A11 - Effect of changes in assumptions and estimates during the period continued

The impact of interest rates for long-term business relates primarily to the UK, driven by an increase in the valuation interest rates for annuity business. This had the effect of reducing liabilities and hence a positive impact on profit. In the prior period a reduction in valuation interest rates had the reverse effect. The mortality for annuity contracts impact in the current period relates to the release of a longevity transaction provision in the UK. The overall impact on profit also depends on movements in the value of assets backing the liabilities, which is not included in this disclosure.

A12 - Unallocated divisible surplus

An unallocated divisible surplus (UDS) is established where the nature of policy benefits is such that the division between shareholder reserves and policyholder liabilities is uncertain. This note shows the movements in this surplus during the period.

In Italy, the UDS balance was £834 million negative at 30 June 2012 (FY11: £1,449 million negative, HY11: £283 million negative). In Spain, certain participating funds had negative UDS balances at 30 June 2012, although in aggregate the UDS balance was £12 million positive (FY11: £13 million positive, HY11: £20 million negative).

Negative UDS balances result from an accounting mismatch between participating assets carried at market value and participating liabilities measured using local practice. The negative balances were tested for recoverability using embedded value methodology and in line with local accounting practice. The negative balances are considered to be recoverable from margins in the existing participating business liabilities.

In Italy, there was a reversal of £31 million of previous losses for negative UDS considered irrecoverable (FY11: £17 million loss), and in Spain a further loss of £35 million was incurred (FY11: £49 million loss).

In Italy the method for estimation of the recoverable negative UDS balance uses a real-world embedded value method, with a risk-discount rate of 7.10% (FY11: 7.05%). The risk-discount rate includes implicit allowance for the time value of options and guarantees. If the risk-discount rate were increased by 1% is it estimated that the recoverable negative UDS balance would reduce by £30 million.

A13 - Borrowings

On 19 June 2012, Aviva plc called floating rate subordinated debt of US$300 million maturing on 19 June 2017.

Of the total cash and cash equivalents shown above, £409 million has been classified as held for sale (HY11: £40 million;FY11: £26 million).

Operating cashflows in the Group cash flow statement reflect the movement in both policyholder and shareholder controlledcash and cash equivalent balances. Around two thirds of the Group's balances relate to unit-linked or participating policyholder funds. As such, the asset mix and the level of cash held by these funds are determined from a policyholder perspective and can move significantly from one period to another. Shareholder cash has increased to £8.9 billion (FY11: £8.6 billion, HY11: £8.6 billion).

Purchases and sales of operating assets including financial investments are included within operating cash flows as the purchases are funded from cash flows associated with the origination of insurance and investment contracts, net of payments of related benefits and claims.

Transactions with joint ventures in the UK relate to the property management undertakings. At 30 June 2012, our interest in these joint ventures comprises a mix of equity and loans, together with the provision of administration services and financial management to many of them. Our UK life insurance companies earn interest on loans advanced to these entities. Our fund management companies also charge fees to these joint ventures for administration services and for arranging external finance.

Our UK fund management companies manage most of the assets held by the Group's main UK staff pension scheme, for which they charge fees based on the level of funds under management. The main UK scheme holds investments in Group-managed funds and insurance policies with other Group companies.

The related parties' receivables are not secured and no guarantees were received in respect thereof. The receivables will be settled in accordance with normal credit terms.

Transactions with joint ventures in Asia relate to life businesses in India, Malaysia, Korea, Taiwan, China and Vietnam.

A17 - Risk management

Risk profile

In accordance with the requirements of the FSA Handbook (DTR 4.2.7) we provide an update here on the material risks and uncertainties facing the Group for the next six months. The types of risk to which the Group is exposed have not changed significantly over the half-year to 30 June 2012 or as a result of the recent revision to the strategic plan, and remain credit (including sovereign debt), market, life insurance, general insurance, liquidity, operational and reputational risks.

(a) Credit risk

Aviva has a strong record of managing credit risk and we see credit as an area where we can make a good return for the benefit of both our policyholders and shareholders. We have broad ranging investment restrictions in place on sovereign and corporate debt exposure to Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain and have actively reduced our exposure to the most vulnerable countries. We have in place a comprehensive group-wide reporting system that consolidates credit exposures across geographies, business lines and exposure types. We have a robust framework of limits and controls to diversify the portfolio and the early identification of potential issues.

During the first half of 2012 the credit rating profile of our debt securities portfolio has remained strong, although the average rating has fallen slightly in line with the general market's rating agency downgrades. The proportion of our shareholder debt securities that are investment grade have increased slightly to 87.7% (FY11: 86.9%).

(b) Market risk

We continue to limit our direct equity exposure. As discussed in note 25, a rolling central equity hedging strategy remains in placeto help control the Group's overall direct and indirect exposure to equities.

We have a limited appetite for interest rate risk as we do not believe it is adequately rewarded. Our conservative and disciplined approach to asset and liability management and pricing limit our exposure to interest rate and guarantee risk. Asset and liability durations across the Group are generally well matched and actions have been taken to manage guarantee risk in the current low interest rate environment. Interest rate hedges are used widely to manage asymmetric interest rate exposures across our life insurance businesses as well as an efficient way to manage cash flow and duration matching. These hedges are used to protect against interest rate falls and are sufficient in scale to materially reduce the Group's interest rate exposure.

At a Group level we actively seek to manage currency risk primarily by matching assets and liabilities in functional currencies at the business unit level. Foreign currency dividends from subsidiaries are hedged using foreign exchange forwards to provide certainty regarding the sterling value to be received by the Group. As described in note 25, hedges have also been used to protect the Group's capital against a significant depreciation in local currency versus sterling.

(c) Liquidity risk

The way we run our business is aimed at ensuring we have a strong liquidity position. We have in place a comprehensive monitoring and reporting process covering extreme scenarios along with appropriate contingency plans. At a Group level we maintain a prudent level of liquidity by holding a buffer of liquid assets to cover unforeseen circumstances. In addition, the Group has maintained£2.1 billion of un-drawn committed borrowing facilities from a range of leading international banks.

A17 - Risk management continued

(d) Life insurance risk

The profile of our life insurance risks, primarily persistency, mortality and expense risk have remained stable in the first half of 2012. Our economic exposure to longevity risk has increased as interest rates have fallen reducing the discount rate used for future liabilities. Persistency risk remains significant and continues to have a volatile outlook, with underlying performance linked to economic conditions. However, businesses across the Group continue to make progress with a range of customer retention activities. The Group continues to write strong volumes of individual annuity new business in the UK adding to an already significant in force portfolio. The Group has continued to write substantial volumes of life protection business, and to utilise reinsurance to reduce exposure to potential losses. All life insurance risks benefit from a significant diversification against other risks in the portfolio, limiting the impact on the Group's aggregate risk profile.

(e) General insurance risk

The Group writes a balanced portfolio of general insurance risk: personal motor, household, commercial motor, property and liability, across a geographically diversified spread of markets: UK, Ireland, Canada, France, Italy, Turkey and Poland.

General insurance risk is managed primarily at individual market level. Each market develops mechanisms to identify, quantify and manage the accumulated exposures in order to contain them within the risk appetite set. All general insurance markets undertake a quarterly review of their insurance risks. This review includes an assessment of changes in the general insurance risk profile of business written; the impact of the underwriting cycle on premium rating strength and adequacy; customer, competitor and distributor behaviour; exposure to natural catastrophe events and the impact of broader economic conditions on overall performance.

Aviva has not suffered any material catastrophe losses during the first half of 2012 and successfully completed the renewal of its group-wide catastrophe protection on 1 April 2012. Processes are in place to manage catastrophe risk in individual business units and at a group level. The group cedes much of its worldwide catastrophe risk to third-party reinsurers but retains a pooled element for its own account gaining diversification benefit.

(f) Operational risk

The group continues to operate, validate and enhance its key operational controls to minimise losses arising from inadequate or failed internal processes, from people and systems or from external events. The group maintains constructive relationships with its regulators around the world and developments in relation to key regulatory changes such as Solvency II are monitored closely. We continue to work with regulatory bodies to help deliver an appropriate outcome from an insurance industry perspective and prepare for the necessary business changes.

(g) Brand and reputation risk

Our success and results are, to a certain extent, dependent on the strength of our brands, the brands of our partners and our reputation with customers, agents, regulators, rating agencies, investors and analysts. While we are well recognised, we are vulnerable to adverse market and customer perception. Any of our brands or our reputation could also be affected if products or services recommended by us or any of our intermediaries do not perform as expected whether or not the expectations are founded, or the customer's expectations for the product have changed. We monitor this risk and have controls in place to limit our exposure.

A18 - Subsequent events

Sale of shares in Delta Lloyd

On 5 July 2012, the Group sold 37.2 million shares in Delta Lloyd N.V. ("Delta Lloyd") (the Group's Dutch long-term insurance, general insurance and fund management associate) for £313 million (net of costs), reducing our holding to 19.8% of Delta Lloyd's ordinary share capital, representing 18.6% of shareholder voting rights. For more information refer to note A3.

Announcement of revised strategic plan

On 5 July 2012, we announced a revised strategic plan which included a review of all the Group's businesses. Although the review may lead to future disposals of some of the non-core businesses, at the date of this report no firm decisions have been made in this respect and the criteria required by IFRS 5, Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, to classify the affected businesses as held for sale as at 30 June 2012 apart from those identified in note A3 have not been met.

 

Completion of sale of smaller European life businesses

On 31 July 2012, the Group completed the sale of its life businesses in the Czech Republic, Hungary and Romania to MetLife Inc. As described in note A3, the assets and liabilities of these businesses were held for sale in the condensed consolidated statement of financial position on 30 June 2012.

A19 - Fixed rate tier 1 notes

On 3 May 2012 Aviva plc issued US$650 million of fixed rate tier 1 notes bearing interest at 8.25% per annum. The Notes are perpetual but the Company may, at its sole option, redeem all (but not part) of the Notes at their principal amounts on 3 November 2017 and on each interest payment date thereafter. The Notes qualify as Innovative tier 1 capital under current regulatory rules. The issuance has been accounted for as equity in accordance with IAS 32 'Financial instruments: Presentation'.

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO AVIVA plc

Introduction

We have been engaged by the company to review the Condensed consolidated set of financial statements in the half year report for the six months ended 30 June 2012, which comprises the Condensed consolidated income statement, the Condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the Condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity, the Condensed consolidated statement of financial position, the Condensed consolidated statement of cash flow, and related notes A1 to A19 on pages 43 to 74. Our review did not extend to the information disclosed in notes A20 to A22 on pages 75 to 76. We have read the other information contained in the half year report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the Condensed consolidated set of financial statements.

Directors' responsibilities

The half year report is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors. The directors are responsible for preparing the half year report in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Services Authority.

As disclosed in note A1, the annual financial statements of the group are prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union. The Condensed consolidated set of financial statements included in this half year report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting", as adopted by the European Union.

Our responsibility

Our responsibility is to express to the company a conclusion on the Condensed consolidated set of financial statements in the half year report based on our review. This report, including the conclusion, has been prepared for and only for the company for the purpose of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial Services Authority and for no other purpose. We do not, in producing this report, accept or assume responsibility for any other purpose or to any other person to whom this report is shown or into whose hands it may come save where expressly agreed by our prior consent in writing.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410, 'Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity' issued by the Auditing Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Condensed consolidated set of financial statements inthe half year report for the six months ended 30 June 2012 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 as adopted by the European Union and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Services Authority.

2) Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
