Financial ratings
As the UK's largest mutual life, pensions and investments company - we can offer firm foundations of financial security. This is often a key concern when considering a company and its products.
Coronavirus and our financial position
As many businesses count the cost of the coronavirus, we want to provide some reassurance around our capital position. We’re a financially strong, stable and well-capitalised business.
£10.3bn
As shown in our 2019 end-of-year results, our business had £10.3bn of available capital.
£4.4bn
Our Solvency II capital requirement is £4.4bn.
2.3 times
We had 2.3 times the amount of available capital the regulator requires us to hold.
We remain confident in our ability to withstand the current turmoil - though we are of course monitoring the situation closely. Our CEO, Barry O’Dwyer, recorded a podcast to provide some reassurance at this time. You can share this with your employees.
