2021 was a year of change and transformation for our business as we welcomed Alexis George as our new CEO and made strong progress on separating Collimate Capital (AMP Capital’s private markets business) from AMP Limited.
2021 financial performance and capital position
In 2021, AMP delivered an improved financial performance with a 53 per cent increase in underlying net profit of $356 million. The performance was assisted by stronger earnings in AMP Bank, New Zealand Wealth Management and AMP Capital as well as strong investment income from Group Office, including the contribution from our strategic partnership with China Life Pension Company.
As we continued our transformation program in 2021, we recognised certain impairments, mainly non-cash write downs including deferred tax assets, intangibles and onerous leases, to position AMP for the future. This resulted in a reported statutory loss of $252 million, however it should not be seen as a reflection of the underlying business performance.
The board also continues to take a conservative approach to capital management to support the delivery of the demerger and AMP’s transformation and has resolved not to pay a dividend for 2021. While we understand that this is disappointing for shareholders, we believe that it is the right approach when AMP is making such significant change. We are committed to reviewing dividend payments following the completion of the demerger later this year.
Separation and demerger of Collimate Capital
Our announcement of the intention to separate and demerge Collimate Capital from AMP Limited in April 2021 followed a comprehensive review of AMP’s business portfolio. The rationale was driven by the fact that AMP is made up of two distinctly different businesses: a domestic retail wealth manager and a global private market (infrastructure and real estate) business with institutional clients. Separating the businesses will accelerate their respective growth strategies, enhance customer focus, and deliver further value to shareholders including through improvements in efficiency.
The demerger process will be conducted via a legal process known as a scheme of arrangement, which involves a number of steps, including obtaining approval from you, our shareholders, and a court. When complete, Collimate Capital will trade as a separate ASX-listed company. AMP shareholders will be sent full details of the demerger, including details regarding voting and upcoming shareholder meetings.
The Board intends to undertake a share consolidation prior to the demerger, however it won’t be put forward as an item of business at the AGM in May as previously advised. Further information on the share consolidation and process for shareholder approval will be provided in the lead up to the shareholder meetings for the proposed demerger of Collimate Capital, which we intend to hold in June.
As we’ve worked through the separation and demerger process, AMP has also received enquiries from other parties expressing interest in the Collimate Capital business. As always, AMP will consider any approaches in line with our obligation to act in the best interests of shareholders.
Strategy and portfolio simplification
In November 2021 we outlined our future strategies for AMP Limited and Collimate Capital, with a focus on simplifying both businesses and capturing emerging growth opportunities. We have strong and accomplished leadership in both businesses with Alexis in place as CEO of AMP Limited, leading a refreshed executive team, and Shawn Johnson who commenced as CEO of AMP Capital in June 2021 and will take forward the Collimate Capital business as it demerges.
Significant steps were taken to further simplify the business during 2021 including the divestment of the remaining stake in Resolution Life Australasia. While this brings to a close AMP’s long and proud involvement in life insurance in Australia, we continue to support financial advisers and customers by providing access to other life insurance products.
As announced on 28 March 2022, we completed the sale of the Global Equities and Fixed Income (GEFI) business. This sale, in addition to the completion of the Infrastructure Debt platform sale and the transfer of the Multi-Asset Group business from AMP Capital to Australian Wealth Management, were key milestones in our simplification. We are pleased to have been able to complete these transactions on time, setting up both AMP and Collimate Capital for the future.
Board changes
The AMP Board is committed to meeting the highest standards of governance and stewardship as the company works through its transformation. The board and its committees met regularly throughout 2021, and I thank all directors and the management team for their strong commitment. Moreover, the board has been actively engaged in oversight of AMP’s work to strengthen the corporate culture.
In July 2021, we welcomed Mike Hirst to the board. Mike brings extensive experience in retail banking, treasury, funds management and financial markets. Mike will stand for election to the AMP Limited Board at this year’s AGM. Andrea Slattery, who has been a non-executive Director for the past three years, and served shareholders strongly, is standing for re-election at the meeting.
As previously announced, John O’Sullivan stepped down from his position as non-executive director on the AMP Limited Board, effective from 8 April 2022. John, who has been a valuable member of the board since June 2018, stepped down to assist Cromwell Property Group with the launch of a new Australian Real Estate Investment Trust, and if the launch is successful, to become its inaugural Chairman. I would like to take this opportunity, on behalf of the board, to thank John for his commitment and invaluable contribution to AMP and wish him continued success.
Sustainability
At AMP we are committed to creating a sustainable and equitable future for our stakeholders and the community, and to openly reporting on our progress and impact.
We recognise that economic, social and environmental issues can have a material impact on business performance and society. AMP’s non-financial disclosures have evolved significantly, and our 2021 Sustainability report reflects the positive steps taken by AMP towards transparency and best practice.
In the community, we recognise and support the growing momentum for global action on climate change and supporting vulnerable communities.
In 2021, we launched our Climate Position and Action Plan which details how we manage our business and investment activities in alignment with net zero emissions by 2050. This builds on AMP’s long-standing commitment to action on climate, having been carbon neutral across our global operations since 2013.
I am also proud of the enduring support the AMP Foundation, AMP’s philanthropic arm, provides to communities across Australia. Since its inception in 1992 the AMP Foundation has contributed more than $110 million to Australian communities through direct donations, employee dollar matching, employee fundraising and volunteering, with more than $3.2 million provided in grants and donations in 2021 alone.
Looking forward
The work we undertook in 2021 has set AMP up for a strong and sustainable future. We have an exciting year ahead, with significant change and opportunities. We are committed to continuing our efforts to restore value and pride for AMP’s shareholders, clients, people and the broader community and on behalf of the board I thank you for your support.
I look forward to meeting those who are able to attend our AGM in May.

How to vote
POWER OF ATTORNEY
If the proxy form is signed under a power of attorney on behalf of a shareholder, then the attorney must make sure that either the original power of attorney or a certified copy is sent with the proxy form, unless the power of attorney has already been provided to the AMP share registry. A proxy cannot be appointed under a power of attorney or similar authority online.
CORPORATE REPRESENTATIVES
If a representative of a corporate shareholder or a corporate proxy will be attending the AGM in person, the representative will need to bring to the AGM adequate evidence of their appointment or otherwise provide such evidence to the AMP share registry before the AGM, unless this has been previously provided to the AMP share registry. If a corporate representative is attending online, the representative will need to provide adequate evidence to the AMP share registry before the AGM in order to receive registration details so they can then participate online and represent the shareholder.
An appointment of corporate representative form may be obtained from the AMP share registry or online at investorcentre.com/au (select the Printable Forms icon).
CHAIR OF THE AGM AS PROXY
AMP encourages you to consider directing your proxy how to vote by marking the appropriate box on the proxy form for each of the proposed resolutions.
If the Chair of the AGM is appointed as your proxy or becomes your proxy by default, the Chair intends to vote, all available proxies in favour of each item of business.
If you appoint the Chair of the AGM as your proxy, and you do not direct your proxy how to vote on the resolution set out in item 3 or 4 on the proxy form, then by completing and submitting the proxy form, you will be expressly authorising the Chair of the AGM to exercise your proxy even though the resolution is connected with the remuneration of a member of the KMP.
If:
– you appoint someone other than the Chair of the AGM as your proxy and direct them how to vote on the proposed resolutions, and
– your nominated proxy does not attend the AGM, or does not vote on your behalf on the proposed resolutions,
then the Chair of the AGM will become your proxy by default and will cast your votes on a poll as directed.
OTHER KMP AS PROXY
If you appoint a director (other than the Chair of the AGM) or another member of the KMP (or a Closely Related Party of a member of the KMP) as your proxy, you should direct them how to vote on the resolutions set out in items 3 and 4 by marking the appropriate boxes. If you do not do so, your proxy will not be permitted to vote on your behalf on the resolutions set out in items 3 and 4.
By order of the board.

Explanatory notes
ITEM 3 ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT
AMP’s Remuneration report (which forms part of the Directors’ report) for the year ended 31 December 2021:
-
explains the board’s policies in relation to the nature and level of remuneration paid to the members of the KMP,
-
discusses the alignment between the board’s remuneration policies, AMP’s performance and executive KMP remuneration outcomes for 2021 with specific focus on ensuring remuneration outcomes reflect the shareholder experience, and
-
outlines details of the performance conditions applicable to the incentive components of the remuneration of the CEO.
A consistent and simplified executive remuneration framework was developed during 2020 and applied from 1 January 2021. It is the board’s intention to review key aspects of executive remuneration on a regular basis to ensure the structure and methodology remain aligned with AMP’s remuneration principles while supporting the reinvigoration and growth of AMP. We will review and ensure compliance with the Financial Accountability Regime and APRA’s remuneration prudential standard (CPS 511) for implementation in 2023.
More details about our remuneration principles and outcomes for 2021 can be found in our 2021 Remuneration report, which appears on pages 42 to 68 of the AMP 2021 Annual report (available online at amp.com.au/2021annualreport ).
Additional information
During item 3, shareholders will be given an opportunity to ask questions about, and make comments on, the Remuneration report.
Shareholders will be asked to vote on a resolution to adopt the Remuneration report at the meeting. In accordance with the Corporations Act, the vote on the resolution will be advisory only and will not bind the directors or AMP. Nevertheless, the board will take the outcome of the vote into account when considering AMP’s future remuneration arrangements.
If you intend to appoint a proxy to vote on your behalf on the resolution for adoption of the Remuneration report, please read the information on page 7 under the heading ‘Chair of the AGM as proxy’ and ‘Other KMP as proxy’.
Board recommendation
Noting that each director has a personal interest in their own remuneration from AMP (as described in the 2021 Remuneration report), each director recommends that shareholders vote IN FAVOUR OF adopting the 2021 Remuneration report.
ITEM 4 APPROVAL OF THE CEO’S LONG-TERM INCENTIVE FOR 2022
Under AMP’s executive remuneration framework for 2022, the remuneration for AMP’s CEO, Alexis George, consists of:
-
fixed remuneration of $1,715,000 (Fixed Remuneration),
-
short-term incentive (STI) opportunity with an ‘at target’ amount of 100% of Fixed Remuneration and a maximum opportunity of 200% of Fixed Remuneration, and
-
long-term incentives (LTI) awarded in performance rights equivalent to 100% of Fixed Remuneration on a face value basis.
The LTI award is consistent with the award made to executive KMP during 2021. The LTI award will be offered under the AMP Equity Incentive Plan (EIP) rules and relevant offer documentation. Vesting of the CEO’s 2022 LTI award is subject to AMP achieving relative total shareholder return performance at or above the median of its peer group.
Details of the terms and conditions of the LTI award are provided below.
Why is shareholder approval being sought?
AMP will satisfy any vested performance rights with AMP shares that have been purchased on-market. This means shareholder approval for the CEO’s 2022 LTI award is not required under the ASX Listing Rules. Nevertheless, for good governance, the board has determined that it is appropriate to seek shareholder approval.
What will happen if shareholders do not approve the 2022 LTI grant?
If shareholder approval is not obtained, the board will consider alternative arrangements to appropriately remunerate and incentivise Ms George.
What is the value of the 2022 CEO LTI grant?
The board is proposing AMP grant the CEO up to 1,818,278 performance rights with a face value of $1,715,000.
11
Explanatory notes
The actual number of shares (if any) that the CEO will receive from this award cannot be determined until the end of the performance period (defined below) and the value will depend on the market share price at the end of the additional 12-month restriction period (defined below).
What are performance rights?
Each performance right will give the CEO the right to acquire one AMP share on vesting. The board retains a discretion to make a cash equivalent payment in lieu of an allocation of shares. Performance rights are granted at no cost to the CEO and there is no loan associated with the performance rights. Performance rights do not carry any dividend or voting rights.
The board has determined to use performance rights because they create share price alignment between the CEO and shareholders but do not provide the CEO with the full benefits of share ownership (such as dividend and voting rights) unless and until the performance rights vest.
Terms and Conditions associated with the 2022 LTI performance rights
| Vesting period | 1 January 2022 – 31 December 2025 |
|---|---|
| Performance period | 1 January 2022 – 31 December 2024 |
| Restriction period | 1 January 2025 – 31 December 2025 |
| Date of Grant | If approval is obtained, the 2022 LTI performance rights will be granted following the AGM as soon as practicable. |
| How many performance rights will be granted to CEO? |
The number of performance rights to be granted is calculated by dividing 100% of the CEO’s fxed remuneration as at 1 January 2022 ($1,715,000) by the face value of an AMP share rounded to the nearest whole number of performance rights. The face value of an AMP share is based on the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) of AMP shares on the ASX during the 10-day trading period prior to 1 January 2022, the start of the performance period. For this period the VWAP was $0.9432. Based on this VWAP, the maximum number of performance rights that may be allocated to the CEO is 1,818,278 performance rights. |
| Performance Condition |
AMP’s Compound Average Growth Rate (CAGR) in Total Shareholder Return (TSR) relative to a peer group of ASX 100 fnancial companies excluding A-REITs as at 1 January 2022. The performance rights will vest according to the following vesting schedule: CAGR TSR performance Proportion of LTI grant vesting |
| AMP’s TSR ranking below the 50th percentile of the peer group 0% |
|
| AMP’s TSR ranking at the 50th percentile of the peer group 50% |
|
| AMP’s TSR ranking between the 50th and 75th percentile of the peer group 50% plus 2% for each additional percentile (rounded to nearest whole percentile) |
|
| AMP’s TSR ranking is at least at the 75th percentile of the peer group 100% |
|
| Testing of the performance condition |
The performance condition will be tested following the end of the performance period. The board has discretion in relation to the appropriate calculation methodology and may adjust the comparator group to take into account events including but not limited to takeovers, mergers or demergers that might occur during the performance period. Any performance rights that do not vest following testing will immediately lapse. There is no retesting if the performance condition is not met. Shareholders will be advised of the performance outcome for the 2022 LTI award in the Annual report for the year ending 31 December 2024. |
12
Explanatory notes
| Restriction period | Any AMP shares allocated to the CEO on vesting of the performance rights will be subject to an additional |
|---|---|
| 12-month service condition following the end of the performance period (restricted shares). During this time, | |
| the CEO will not be able to trade or otherwise deal in the restricted shares but will be entitled to dividend and | |
| voting rights. | |
| Treatment of | If the CEO is terminated for cause or gives notice of resignation to AMP before the vesting date, all unvested |
| performance rights | performance rights (or restricted shares) will lapse or be forfeited, unless the board determines otherwise. |
| and restricted | In all other cases, unless the board determines otherwise: |
| shares if the CEO leaves AMP |
– a pro rata portion of the CEO’s performance rights (calculated based on the portion of the performance period that has elapsed up until the date of termination) will remain on foot to be tested in the ordinary course, and |
| – all restricted shares allocated to the CEO on vesting of the performance rights will remain on foot until the end | |
| of the 12-month restriction period. | |
| Other material | The board has broad malus and clawback powers to determine that performance rights lapse, any shares |
| terms | allocated on vesting are forfeited, or that amounts are to be repaid, in certain circumstances (for example, |
| in the case of fraud or serious misconduct, proceeds of any sale of shares or the value of dividends provided for | |
| vested shares might be repaid as a debt to AMP). | |
| The board also has discretion to vest performance rights or lift restrictions on restricted shares if there is a change | |
| of control. |
Securities previously issued under the EIP
The CEO joined AMP on 2 August 2021 and did not participate in the 2021 LTI grant. As such no performance rights have been issued to the CEO under the LTI arrangement.
However, as previously announced and outlined in the 2021 Remuneration report a total of 2,807,038 performance rights and 1,015,806 share rights were granted to the CEO under the EIP as sign-on awards in 2021. No price was payable by the CEO for those rights. At the date of this notice:
– 638,168 of the performance rights and 507,243 of the share rights vested in 2021, and
– 122,010 performance rights lapsed in 2021.
Board recommendation
In the non-executive directors’ view, it is in the best interests of shareholders to approve the 2022 LTI grant to the CEO because vesting of the performance rights will be subject to a performance hurdle which aligns the CEO’s remuneration with shareholder returns. Your directors (with the CEO and managing director Alexis George, abstaining) therefore recommend that shareholders APPROVE the 2022 LTI grant to the CEO.

How to direct your proxy to vote
Voting 100% of your holding: Direct your proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes next to each item of business. If you do not mark a box for an item, your proxy may vote as they choose (or abstain from voting) on that item (unless your proxy is prohibited by law from doing so). If you mark more than one box on an item, your vote will be invalid on that item (unless you validly vote your holding in different ways in accordance with the paragraph below).
Voting a portion of your holding: Indicate a portion of your voting rights by inserting the percentage or number of shares you wish to vote in the for, against or abstain box for each item of business. The sum of the votes specified on an item of business must not exceed your voting entitlement or 100%.
Appointing a second proxy: If you are entitled to cast two or more votes at the meeting, you may appoint up to two proxies to participate in the meeting and vote on a poll. If you appoint two proxies, each proxy may exercise half of your votes unless you specify the percentage or number of votes for each proxy. Fractions of votes will be disregarded. When appointing two proxies write both names and the percentage or number of votes for each in step 1 overleaf.
Appointing the Chair of the meeting or another member of the key management personnel (KMP) as your proxy: If you appoint the Chair of the meeting as your proxy (or the Chair becomes your
proxy by default) and you do not direct your proxy how to vote on an item of business by returning this proxy form, you will be expressly authorising the Chair of the meeting to exercise the proxy and vote as the Chair decides on that item (even though items 3 and 4 are connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of members of the KMP). Where permissible, the Chair intends to vote all available undirected proxies in favour of all items of business. If you do not want the Chair to vote, as your proxy, in accordance with these intentions, you need to direct your proxy on the relevant item by marking the appropriate box overleaf.
If you appoint a director (other than the Chair of the meeting) or another member of the KMP (or a closely related party of a member of the KMP) as your proxy, you should direct them how to vote on items 3 and 4 by marking the appropriate boxes overleaf. If you do not do so, your proxy will not be permitted to vote on your behalf on items 3 and 4. Your proxy does not need to be a shareholder of AMP Limited.
