Robust capital and cashflow position
Tim Breedon, Group Chief Executive, said:
"Our sales performance has been good in a tough environment. In Q4 we have increased Risk and Savings sales compared to Q3, and attracted £5bn of gross inflows into Investment Management.
"In our Risk business we have moved our protection products further away from housing related business and delivered strong, diversified annuity sales. Our reputation, products and client service offering have continued to attract customers to our Savings and Investment Management businesses.
"Legal & General's capital and cashflow position remains robust, and our significant surplus gives confidence to our customers, underpins returns to investors, and enables us to build the business even through volatile markets.
"The challenges of recent months look set to continue in 2009 - but there will be opportunities for growth. We have the confidence to continue to grow and develop our business profitably and invest for the future."
New Business Commentary
Legal & General has three main businesses: Risk, Savings and Investment Management. Our UK Risk and Savings businesses generated combined APE new business of £1,367m, an increase of 3% on 2007. Worldwide APE new business was £1,486m, also up 3%. Our institutional investment management business added £33.1bn of gross new funds during 2008.
UK Risk business
Protection: 7% lower at £207m (FY 07: £223m)
Individual protection sales of £140m (FY 07: £160m) were 13% lower, comparing favourably to the 39% fall in mortgage approvals(3) in 2008. The proportion of products not associated with a mortgage grew, including family protection, business protection and high sum assured business, as we continued to diversify away from mortgage related sales. We also benefited through the year from new sales through our major distribution relationship with Nationwide Building Society.
Group protection sales rose 6% to £67m (FY 07: £63m) as employers continued to seek competitive and attractive benefits for their employees. Customers are shifting their emphasis to focus more on benefit design to give them and their employees greater flexibility and value for money. We continue to build on our leading product and service proposition, positioning us well in this dynamic market.
Annuities: up 37% to £281m (FY 07: £205m)
Bulk Purchase Annuity (BPA) sales increased by 73% to £194m (FY 07: £112m), reflecting a step change in demand. New business was made up of 194 separate policies with an average single premium case size of £10m, helping to further diversify our business. In Q4 we have signed only one scheme in excess of £100m single premium, reflecting our cautious approach to pricing larger schemes due to volatility in credit markets. Sales in Q4 were £31m, £6m higher than Q3 (£25m), achieved in conditions of improving interest margins.
Sales of individual annuities of £87m were 6% lower than last year (FY 07: £93m), but Q4 sales of £27m were the highest since the start of 2007. We continue to balance our appetite between bulk and individual annuity markets. In the early part of the year we reduced our activity in the individual market reflecting in part our focus on the significant opportunities in the BPA market. In Q4 we stepped up our sales initiatives as the interest margin for individual annuities improved.
UK Savings business
Unit linked bonds: 48% lower at £131m (FY 07: £251m)
The decline in sales was in line with recent trends. The major driver of this reduction remains the impact of industry volumes, which have fallen materially after changes to Capital Gains Tax announced towards the end of 2007. Some customers have also reduced their appetite for unit linked investments in a period of market volatility.
Non profit pensions: up 30% to £328m (FY 07: £253m).
We continued to refocus our non profit pension business towards more modern, flexible, transparent and less capital intensive products. This includes SIPPs, which accounted for 57% of individual non profit pensions and 15% of corporate non profit pensions. The acquisition of Suffolk Life early in 2008 further expanded our strong SIPP franchise and added to the growth we saw in our other pensions products.
With-profits savings: 16% lower at £191m (FY 07: £228m).
Investors' appetite for products with more defensive investment characteristics continues to be seen in the with-profits bond market, where we saw sales increase from £10m to £28m.
Retail investments: up 42% to £229m (FY 07: £161m)
In a challenging environment for the wider retail investment industry, our products continued to resonate with our customers, and our sales have benefited as a result. Underlying sales increased year on year, further boosted by our distribution agreement with Nationwide Building Society.
Institutional investment management business
In 2008 gross new funds under management from new and existing clients amounted to £33.1bn (FY 07: £54.4bn including one off transfers of £20.3bn from clients of Hermes). Our core product and service offering continues to appeal to customers, who appreciate our value for money investment propositions combined with low risk of performance disappointment and reputation for excellent client service. Gross sales were significantly ahead of our long-term average of £18bn per annum over the last 10 years.
International businesses
In local currency, our US business sales were 4% higher year on year at $94m (FY 07: $90m), with continued growth in high net worth term life business.
In France investment market volatility and the absence in 2008 of the fiscally-stimulated sales seen in 2007 were reflected in total sales being 21% lower at €50m (FY 07: €63m).
Sales in the Netherlands of €36m were 5% lower (FY 07: €38m) due to a 13% drop in single premium business in challenging industry conditions.
Total overseas sales on a sterling basis were 3% higher at £119m (FY 07: £116m), benefiting from the appreciation of the Euro and US dollar over the year.
Balance sheet
As at 30 September 2008 we estimated our IGD surplus position to be £2.9bn. At that point the FTSE 100 index stood at 4,902, and we indicated significant resilience to further investment market volatility, estimating that a 30% equity market reduction would reduce this to c£2bn. At 31 December 2008 the FTSE 100 index stood at 4,434, approximately 10% lower.
The final IGD position as at 31 December 2008 will be provided with our preliminary results in March. This will reflect market movements over the fourth quarter, any impact of our normal year-end reserving review and the Board's recommendation on final dividend.
Relative financial strength remains, in our view, a key strategic differentiator of Legal & General in the sector and a core part of our balance sheet management philosophy.
(1) All new business sales figures are quoted in APE terms unless otherwise stated (APE = Annual Premium Equivalent = new regular premium plus 10% of new single premium)
(2) Core retail investment sales
(3) Bank of England data for the 11 month period to the end of November 2008, compared to the same period of 2007
Supplementary reporting
For the 2008 year end we will continue to produce EEV supplementary information to cover our UK and overseas life and pensions businesses. However we do not believe it is appropriate for our managed pension fund business within LGIM to be included as part of the covered business. As a result all of our Investment Management businesses will now be reported on the IFRS basis, though some EEV information will still be made available.
