Non-operating profit items

A4 - Life Business: Investment return variances and economic assumption changes

(a) Definitions

Operating profit for life business is based on expected investment returns on financial investments backing shareholder and policyholder funds over the period, with consistent allowance for the corresponding expected movements in liabilities. Operating profit includes the effect of variance in experience for non-economic items, such as mortality, persistency and expenses, and the effect of changes in non-economic assumptions, where not treated as exceptional. Changes due to economic items, such as market value movement and interest rate changes, which give rise to variances between actual and expected investment returns, and the impact of changes in economic assumptions on liabilities, are disclosed separately outside operating profit.

(b) Economic volatility

The investment variances and economic assumption changes excluded from the life operating profit are as follows:

Life business 6 months 2013 £m Life business 6 months 2012 £m Life business Full Year 2012 £m
Investment variances and economic assumptions - continuing operations (2) (305) (620)
Investment variances and economic assumptions - discontinued operations 279 93 342
Investment variances and economic assumptions 277 (212) (278)

For continuing operations, investment variances and economic assumption changes were £2 million negative (HY12: £305 million negative). There were positive investment variances in Spain, Italy and France, driven by narrower credit spreads on government and corporate bonds. This was offset by a negative variance in the UK, mainly due to increasing the allowance for credit risk defaults on UK commercial mortgages by £300 million together with some adverse current year experience on this portfolio. In the prior year, the negative variance mainly related to the UK. The positive variance of £279 million for discontinued operations (HY12: £93 million positive) relates to the US, driven by the impact of favourable equity market performance on embedded derivatives.

(c) Assumptions

The expected rate of investment return is determined using consistent assumptions between operations, having regard to local economic and market forecasts of investment return and asset classification under IFRS. The principal assumptions underlying the calculation of the expected investment return for equities and properties are:

Equities 6 months 2013 % Equities 6 months 2012 % Equities Full year 2012 % Properties 6 months 2013 % Properties 6 months 2012 % Properties Full year 2012 %
United Kingdom 5.4% 5.8% 5.8% 3.9% 4.3% 4.3%
Eurozone 5.1% 5.9% 5.9% 3.6% 4.4% 4.4%

The expected return on equities and properties has been calculated by reference to the 10 year swap rate in the relevant currency plus an appropriate risk margin. These are the same assumptions as are used under MCEV principles to calculate the longer-term investment return for the Group's life business. For fixed interest securities classified as fair value through profit or loss, the expected investment returns are based on average prospective yields for the actual assets held less an adjustment for credit risk. Where such securities are classified as available for sale, the expected investment return comprises the expected interest or dividend payments and amortisation of the premium or discount at purchase.# Page 31

B1 - Basis of preparation

(a) The condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months to 30 June 2013 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and endorsed by the European Union (EU), and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority. The accounting policies applied in the condensed consolidated financial statements are the same as those applied in Aviva plc's 2012 Annual Report and Accounts, except for the adoption of new standards, interpretations and amendments to existing standards as detailed in Note B2. The results for the six months to 30 June 2013 are unaudited but have been reviewed by the auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers 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 2012 have been taken from the Group's 2012 Annual Report and Accounts and have been restated for the adoption of accounting policies noted in Note B2. Therefore, these interim accounts should be read in conjunction with the 2012 Annual Reports and Accounts that have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and endorsed by the European Union. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP reported on the 2012 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 2012 Annual 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 pounds 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. As a result, the Group focuses on an operating profit measure 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 impairment of goodwill, associates and joint ventures; amortisation and impairment of intangibles; the profit or loss on disposal and remeasurement of subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates; integration and restructuring costs; and exceptional items.

(d) Presentation changes
(i) Discontinued operations
As described in note B4, the Group's US life and annuity business and associated investment management operations (together 'US Life'), have been classified as held for sale. Consistent with the presentation in the Group's 2012 Report and Accounts, the results of US Life for the period, as well as those for preceding periods, have been classified as discontinued operations.

(ii) Change to operating segments

In the first quarter of 2013, the Group announced modifications to its management structure. As a result, the Group's operating segments were reviewed to align them with the revised organisational reporting structure. This has resulted in changes to the reportable operating segments as described in note B5.

(iii) Restatement of prior period

Consistent with the presentation in the 2012 Report and Accounts, certain portfolios of the Group's Italian long-term business have been reclassified from participating insurance contracts to participating investment contracts. There has been a reallocation from gross insurance liabilities at 30 June 2012 to gross liabilities for investment contracts of £2,515 million. The change in insurance liabilities net of reinsurance recognised in the income statement for the 6 months to 30 June 2012 has decreased by £124 million, and the change in investment contract provisions has increased by an equal amount. There is no impact on profit for the period or equity reported for the period ended 30 June 2012.

B2 - New standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards that have been adopted by the Group

The Group has adopted the following new or revised standards that became effective as of 1 January 2013. There is no impact on the Group's equity as at 31 December 2012 or at 30 June 2012.

(a) IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements - sets out the requirements for the preparation and presentation of consolidated financial statements, requiring entities to consolidate entities it controls. The standard changes the definition of control such that an investor has control over an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to influence those returns through power over the investee. An investor is considered to have control if all three of the following are met: (1) it has power over an investee; (2) it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and (3) it has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect its own returns. In line with the transitional provisions the requirements have been retrospectively applied at the beginning of the immediate preceding period. The application of IFRS 10 has resulted in the consolidation of investment vehicles that were not previously consolidated, and deconsolidation of investment vehicles that were previously consolidated. There is no impact on the profit for six months ended 30 June 2012 or year ended 31 December 2012 or equity reported. There is no material impact on the total assets or liabilities in either of the comparative periods. The effect on amounts previously reported at 30 June 2012 and 31 December 2012 is set out in the tables below.

(b) IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements - defines and establishes accounting principles for joint arrangements. The standard distinguishes between two types of joint arrangements - joint ventures and joint operations - based on how rights and obligations are shared by parties to the arrangements. The adoption of IFRS 11 has no impact on the interim consolidated financial statements.

(c) IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement - establishes a single standard for all fair value measurements. The standard does not change the scope of fair value measurement, but provides further guidance on how fair value should be determined. The changes have no significant impact on the Group's application of fair value measurements. IFRS 13 also requires specific disclosures on fair values, some of which replace existing disclosure requirements in other standards, including IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. Some of these disclosures are specifically required to be disclosed in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements by IAS 34 (amended) and are provided in Note B17.

(d) IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements (amended) - requires the grouping of items presented in other comprehensive income according to whether they will subsequently be reclassified to income statement. The criteria when items are required to be reclassified from other comprehensive income to income statement are set out in "Accounting policies" in the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Group's 2012 Report and Accounts. The adoption of the amendments to IAS 1 results in a revised presentation of the statement of comprehensive income in these interim financial statements.

(e) IAS 19 Employee Benefits (revised) - amends the accounting for employee benefits. The revised standard has been applied retrospectively in accordance with the transitional provision of the standard. The key impact of the revised standard on the Group's condensed consolidated financial statements is the replacement of the interest cost on the defined benefit obligation and the expected return on plan assets with a net interest cost based on the net defined benefit asset or liability and the discount rate at the beginning of the year. There is no change in the method to determine the discount rate.# B2 - New standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards that have been adopted by the Group continued

This has resulted in an increase in profit before tax of £150 million for the year ended 31 December 2012 and £74 million for the 6 months ended 30 June 2012 with a corresponding decrease in other comprehensive income as the discount rate applied to assets is higher than the previously applied expected return on assets. The revised standard has introduced a new term "remeasurements" comprised of actuarial gains and losses and the difference between actual investment returns less investment expenses and the return implied by the net interest cost. The effect on amounts previously reported is set out in the tables below.

There is no impact from the adoption of these standards on the statement of changes in equity reported at 30 June 2012 or at 31 December 2012. The impact on the statement of cash flows is a £1,227 million decrease in net cash from operating activities for the six months ended 30 June 2012 (31 December 2012: increase of £205 million). Previously reported cash flows from financing and investing activities were unaffected.

(i) Irish long-term business
On 17 January 2012 the Group's Irish long-term subsidiary Ark Life Assurance Company Limited (Ark Life) was classified as held for sale as a result of Allied Irish Bank ("AIB") exercising an option to purchase this entity. In addition AIB exercised its option to put its non-controlling interest in Aviva Life Holdings Ireland Limited (ALHI), another Irish Group subsidiary, to the Group. As a result this non-controlling interest was reclassified from equity to liabilities. At 31 December 2012 the net assets of Ark Life and the liability to purchase the ALHI non-controlling interest were recorded in the Group financial statements at management's best estimates of settlement value. On 8 March 2013 the disposal of Ark Life and the acquisition of the non-controlling interest in ALHI were completed, for cash consideration of £117 million, consistent with the estimated expected net settlement reflected at 31 December 2012, together with settlement of the non controlling interest purchase liability of £166 million. This transaction resulted in a profit on disposal of £88 million, calculated as follows:

(i) US long-term business
On 8 November 2012 the Group confirmed it was in discussions with external parties with respect to its US life operations, consisting of Aviva Life and Annuity Company and the associated internal asset management operations of Aviva Investors North America, Inc ("US Life") and these have been classified as held for sale. On 21 December 2012 the Group announced that it had agreed to sell US Life to Athene Holding Ltd for consideration of £1.0 billion including the shareholder loan (£1.1 billion including repayment of an external loan). Following classification as held for sale, US Life was re-measured to fair value less costs to sell. The results of US life continue to be presented in the Group financial statements, classified as discontinued operations in the income statement. The transaction is expected to complete in 2013. As noted in the 2012 report and accounts, there is uncertainty in the ultimate consideration which depends primarily on the development of the statutory surplus between the announcement of sale and ultimate completion date. At the end of the period, the fair value less costs to sell was assessed considering movements in the statutory surplus and other items and increased by £129 million, with an additional £27 million of foreign exchange movements, to £523 million (31 December 2012: £367 million) reflecting management's revised best estimate of the expected proceeds. During the period the underlying net assets of US Life increased slightly resulting in a further impairment of £38 million being recorded in the income statement so that the impaired carrying value continues to equal the fair value less costs to sell. The charge was more than offset by the £129 million increase in expected fair value less costs to sell, resulting in a net £91 million profit on remeasurement in the income statement. Movements in exchange rates resulted in foreign exchange losses of £(164) million being recognised in other comprehensive income due primarily to the retranslation of the underlying net assets from the opening to closing rate. Other comprehensive income, net of tax from discontinued operations of £(206) million includes £303 million fair value losses on available for sale financial investments, £65 million fair value gains on available for sale financial investments transferred to the income statement on disposal, offset by £29 million foreign exchange gains, £7 million of gains from the transfer of previously recognised impairment losses to the income statement and £126 million aggregate shareholder tax effect. On completion of the disposal the currency translation reserves and investment valuation reserves relating to the US Life operations, currently recognised within equity, will be recycled to the income statement.

(ii) Other
During the period the Italian long-term business Eurovita Assicurazioni S.p.A ("Eurovita") was classified as held for sale, as a result of management determining that the value of this business will principally be recovered through sale. Following classification as held for sale, Eurovita has been re-measured to fair value less costs to sell. A loss on remeasurement of £151 million has been recognised within "Profit on the disposal and re-measurement of subsidiaries and associates" in the income statement. Aviva's share of this loss is £66 million. After remeasurement the carrying value of this business is equal to its fair value less costs to sell of £48 million. Net of non-controlling interests, Aviva's share of these net assets is £18 million. Eurovita's results continue to be consolidated. On completion of the disposal the currency translation reserves relating to Eurovita, currently recognised within equity, will be recycled to the income statement. Other businesses classified as held for sale at 30 June 2013 with net assets of £21 million, comprise a joint venture in Taiwan and other small operations.

B5 - 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. 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 CEO for the operating segment for which they are responsible. Following announcements in Q1 2013 relating to modifications to its management structure, the Group's operating segments were changed to align them with the revised organisational reporting structure. The new segments are set out below. Results for prior periods have been restated to facilitate comparison.

United Kingdom & Ireland

The United Kingdom and Ireland comprises two operating segments - Life and General Insurance. The principal activities of our UK and Ireland Life operations are life insurance, long-term health (in the UK) 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. UK & Ireland General Insurance includes the results of our Ireland Health 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.

Poland

Activities in Poland comprise long-term business and general insurance operations.# B5 - Segmental information continued

B6 - Tax

This note analyses the tax charge for the period and explains the factors that affect it.

(a) Tax charged/(credited) to the income statement

(i) The total tax charge comprises:

6 months 2013 £m Restated 6 months 2012 £m Restated Full year 2012 £m
Current tax

Total tax charged to income statement from discontinued operations 117 36 152
Total tax charged to income statement 316 242 634

(ii) The Group, as a proxy for policyholders in the UK, Ireland and Singapore, is required to record taxes on investment income and gains each year. Accordingly, the tax benefit or expense attributable to UK, Ireland and Singapore insurance policyholder returns is included in the tax charge. The tax credit attributable to policyholders' returns included in the charge above is £18 million (HY12: £21 million charge; FY12: £221 million charge).

(iii) The tax charge/(credit) can be analysed as follows:

6 months 2013 £m Restated 6 months 2012 £m Restated Full year 2012 £m
UK tax (57) 26 (1)
Overseas tax 373 216 635

B6 - Tax continued

(c) Tax credited to equity

Tax credited directly to equity in the period amounted to £4 million (HY12: £nil; FY12: £18 million) and is wholly in respect of coupon payments on direct capital instruments and fixed rate tier 1 notes.

(d) Tax reconciliation

The tax on the Group's profit/(loss) before tax differs from the theoretical amount that would arise using the tax rate of the home country of the Company as follows:

6 months 2013 Restated 6 months 2012 Restated Full year 2012
Shareholder £m Policyholder £m Total £m
Total profit/(loss) before tax 1,110 (18) 1,092
Tax calculated at standard UK corporation tax rate of 23.25% (2012: 24.5%) 258 (4) 254
Reconciling items
Different basis of tax - policyholders - (14) (14)
Adjustment to tax charge in respect of prior periods 1 - 1
Non-assessable income and items not taxed at the full statutory rate (38) - (38)
Non-taxable( profit)/loss on sale of subsidiaries and associates (64) - (64)
Disallowable expenses 55 - 55
Different local basis of tax on overseas profits 110 - 110
Change in future local statutory tax rates - - -
Movement in deferred tax not recognised 21 - 21
Tax effect of (profit)/loss from associates and joint ventures (9) - (9)
Other - - -
Total tax charged/(credited) to income statement 334 (18) 316

The tax (credit)/charge attributable to policyholders' returns is removed from the Group's total profit/(loss) before tax in arriving at the Group's profits/(losses) 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 (loss)/profit attributable to policyholders is an amount equal and opposite to the tax (credit)/charge attributable to policyholders included in the total tax charge.

The difference between the policyholder tax (credit)/charge and the impact of this item in the tax reconciliation can be explained as follows:

6 months 2013 £m 6 months 2012 £m Full year 2012 £m
Tax attributable to policyholder returns (18) 21 221
UK corporation tax at a rate of 23.25% (2012: 24.5%) in respect of the policyholder tax deduction 4 (5) (54)
Different local basis of tax of overseas profits - 1 3
Different basis of tax - policyholders per tax reconciliation (14) 17 170

The UK corporation tax rate reduced to 23% from 1 April 2013. This rate has been used in the calculation of the UK's deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period. Legislation has been substantively enacted in July 2013 to reduce the main rate of UK corporation tax to 21% from 1 April 2014, with a further reduction to 20% from 1 April 2015. The aggregate impact of the reduction in rate from 23% to 20% would reduce the deferred tax assets and liabilities and increase IFRS net assets by approximately £17 million and will be recognised in the second half of the year.

B12 - Effect of changes in assumptions and estimates during the period

This disclosure only allows for the impact on liabilities and related assets, such as unallocated divisible surplus, reinsurance, deferred acquisition costs and AVIF, and does not allow for offsetting movements in the value of backing financial assets.

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. The overall impact on profit also depends on movements in the value of assets backing the liabilities, which is not included in this disclosure. The impact of tax and other assumptions includes £0.3 billion relating to strengthening of credit default assumptions for commercial mortgages backing UK annuity business.

B13 - 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 at the reporting date. This note shows the movements in the UDS during the period.

In Italy, the balance was £46 million negative at 30 June 2013 (FY12: £2 million negative, HY12: £834 million negative). In Spain, certain participating funds had negative UDS balances at 30 June 2013, although in aggregate the UDS balance was £62 million positive (FY12: £95 million positive, HY12: £12 million positive). 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. Testing is conducted at a participating fund-level within each life entity. The negative balances are considered to be recoverable from margins in the existing participating business liabilities. In Italy, there was a reversal of £33 million of previous losses for negative UDS considered irrecoverable (FY12: £9 million loss, HY12: £31 million profit), and in Spain a reversal of £52 million of previous losses (FY12: £33 million profit, HY12: £35 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 6.65% (FY12: 6.25%, HY12: 7.10%). The embedded value method includes implicit allowance for the time value of options and guarantees. If the risk-discount rate were increased by 1% it is estimated that the recoverable negative UDS balance would reduce by £10 million (FY12: unchanged, HY12 £30 million reduction). In Spain, the estimation of the recoverable negative UDS balance uses a market-consistent embedded value method.

B14 - Borrowings

On 21 January 2013, Aviva Group Holdings Limited borrowed £200 million as a short term external borrowing which will be repaid from disposal proceeds. On 5 July 2013 Aviva plc issued €650 million of subordinated debt bearing interest at 6.125% per annum. The subordinated debt matures on 5 July 2043 but the Company may, at its sole option, redeem all (but not part) of the debt on 5 July 2023 and on each interest payment date thereafter. The subordinated debt qualifies as tier 2 capital under current regulatory rules.

B15 - Pension obligations and other provisions

¹ Following the adoption of revised IAS19 "Employee benefits", the Group has retrospectively applied the changes to the comparative periods. This has led to an increase in profit before tax of £150 million for FY12 and £74 million for HY12 shown above within net interest, with a corresponding decrease in other comprehensive income, recorded within remeasurements above. The decrease in the net defined benefit asset is primarily due to a significant increase in the inflation assumption in the UK schemes, which was partly offset by an increase in long term AA corporate bond yields across all schemes.# B16 - Related party transactions

During the period, there have been no changes in the nature of the related party transactions from those described in the Group's annual report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2012. There were no transactions with related parties that had a material effect on the result for the period ended 30 June 2013, 30 June 2012 or 31 December 2012.

B17 - Fair value

Fair value methodology

This note explains the methodology for valuing our assets and liabilities measured at fair value and provides an analysis of these according to a 'fair value hierarchy', determined by the market observability of valuation inputs.

Basis for determining fair value hierarchy

For assets and liabilities measured at fair value, we have categorised the measurement basis into a 'fair value hierarchy' as follows:

Level 1

Inputs to Level 1 fair values are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.

Level 2

Inputs to Level 2 fair values are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the instrument. Level 2 inputs include the following:
* Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets.
* Quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, the prices are not current, or price quotations vary substantially either over time or among market makers, or in which little information is released publicly.
* Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, implied volatilities, and credit spreads).
* Market-corroborated inputs.

Where we use broker quotes and no information as to the observability of inputs is provided by the broker, the investments are classified as follows:
* Where the broker price is validated by using internal models with market observable inputs and the values are similar, we classify the investment as Level 2.
* In circumstances where internal models are not used to validate broker prices, or the observability of inputs used by brokers is unavailable, the investment is classified as Level 3.

Level 3

Inputs to Level 3 fair values are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs may have been used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. However, the fair value measurement objective remains the same, i.e. an exit price at the measurement date from the perspective of a market participant that holds the asset or owes the liability. Therefore, unobservable inputs reflect the assumptions the business unit considers that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Examples are certain private equity investments and private placements.

The majority of the Group's assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on quoted market information or observable market data. 5.0% of assets and 1.0% of liabilities measured at fair value are based on estimates and recorded as Level 3. Where estimates are used, these are based on a combination of independent third-party evidence and internally developed models, calibrated to market observable data where possible. Third-party valuations using significant unobservable inputs validated against Level 2 internally modelled valuations are classified as Level 3, where there is a significant difference between the third-party price and the internally modelled value. Where the difference is insignificant, the instrument would be classified as Level 2.

Changes to valuation technique

There were no changes in the valuation techniques during the period compared to those described in the 2012 annual consolidated financial statements.

Comparison of the carrying amounts and fair values of financial instruments as at 30 June 2013:

Fair value £m Carrying amount £m Financial Assets

Fair value of the following assets and liabilities approximate to their carrying amounts:
* Receivables
* Cash and cash equivalents
* Payables and other financial liabilities
* The equivalent assets to those above, which are classified as held for sale

² Financial assets and liabilities of operations classified as held for sale relate to those measured at fair value. An analysis of total assets and liabilities of operations classified as held for sale is provided in note B4(c).

Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy

For recurring fair value measurements, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between the levels of the fair value hierarchy be re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of the reporting period. During the six month period ended 30 June 2013, there were no transfers of assets or liabilities from Fair Value hierarchy Level 1 to Level 2 or from Level 2 to Level 1. Transfers out of Level 3 (shown below) relate to improvements in the market liquidity of certain debt securities held by our business in France, which were transferred to Level 1, as quoted market prices became available from an active market.

Further information on Level 3 assets and liabilities:

The table below shows movement in the level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value:

Total net losses recognised in the income statement in the six month period ended 30 June 2013 in respect of Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value amounted to £99 million. Included in this balance are £52 million of net losses attributable to those assets and liabilities still held at the end of the period.

The principal investments classified as Level 3, and the valuation techniques applied to them, are:
* Structured bond-type products held by our business in France amounting to £7.7 billion, for which there is no active market. These bonds are valued either using third-party counterparty or broker quotes. These bonds are validated against internal or third-party models. These bonds have been classified as Level 3 because either (i) the third-party models included a significant unobservable liquidity adjustment or (ii) differences between the valuation provided by the counterparty and broker quotes and the validation model were sufficiently significant to result in a Level 3 classification. At 30 June 2013, the values reported in respect of these products were the lower of counterparty and broker quotes and modelled valuations.
* Notes issued by loan partnerships held by our UK Life business amounting to £0.7 billion, for which there is no active market. These are valued using counterparty quotes, corroborated against the prices of selected similar securities. In the first six-month period ended 30 June 2013, there were insufficient market observable transactions in the selected securities to provide a reliable proxy price to corroborate the counterparty price.
* Private equity investment funds amounting to £1.2 billion, of which £1.1 billion is held by our UK business.# Risk management

In valuing our interest in these funds, we rely on investment valuation reports received from the fund manager, making adjustments for items such as subsequent draw-downs and distributions between the date of the report and the balance sheet date and the fund manager's carried interest.
* External hedge funds held principally by businesses in the UK, France, and the US (which is classified as held for sale) amounting to £1.3 billion. Valuations received from fund managers are based on net asset values. However, insufficient information is provided on the underlying fund assets to support a classification other than Level 3.
* Certain strategic interests in banking partners held by our Italian business amounting to £0.3 billion. Valuations are based on third-party independent appraisals, or where internally modelled, transactions in similar entities, discounted cash flow techniques and valuation multiples, using public and internal management information.
* Financial assets of operations classified as held for sale represent investments held by our business in the US in external hedge funds amounting to £0.4 billion (as mentioned and included above) and debt securities amounting to £0.3 billion. The debt securities are valued based on a consensus view of the prices being held by banks, trading desks and market makers but do not necessarily represent executable quotes or observable price.
* Other Level 3 investments amount to £1.4 billion and relate to a diverse range of different types of securities held by a number of businesses throughout the Group.

Where possible, the Group tests the sensitivity of the fair values of Level 3 investments to changes in unobservable inputs to reasonable alternatives. 99% of valuations for Level 3 investments are sourced from independent third parties and, where appropriate, validated against internally-modelled valuations, third-party models or broker quotes. Where third-party pricing sources are unwilling to provide a sensitivity analysis for their valuations, the Group undertakes, where feasible, sensitivity analysis on the following basis:
* For third-party valuations validated against internally-modelled valuations using significant unobservable inputs, the sensitivity of the internally modelled valuation to changes in unobservable inputs to a reasonable alternative is determined.
* For third-party valuations either not validated or validated against a third-party model or broker quote, the third-party valuation in its entirety is considered an unobservable input. Sensitivities are determined by flexing inputs of internal models to a reasonable alternative, including the yield, NAV multiple, IRR or other suitable valuation multiples of the financial instrument implied by the third-party valuation. For example, for a fixed income security the implied yield would be the rate of return which discounts the security's contractual cash flows to equal the third-party valuation.

On the basis of the methodology outlined above, the Group is able to perform sensitivity analysis for £12.6 billion of the Group's Level 3 investments. For these Level 3 investments, changing unobservable valuation inputs to a reasonable alternative would result in a change in fair value by ± £0.5 billion. Of the £0.3 billion Level 3 investments for which sensitivity analysis is not provided, investments are held predominantly to back non-linked shareholder business and it is estimated that a 10% change in valuation of these investments would reduce shareholder profit before tax by £30 million.

Non-participating investment contract liabilities carried within our UK life business amounting to £0.2 billion relate to non-unit reserves. These are valued based on unobservable inputs, such as future lapses and expense experience, and therefore, have a Level 3 classification. Financial liabilities of operations classified as held for sale amounting to £0.3 billion represent the non-participating investment contracts in our US business which are valued using valuation techniques with unobservable inputs.

B18 - Risk management

As a global insurance group, risk management is at the heart of what we do and is the source of value creation as well as a vital form of control. It is an integral part of managing and maintaining financial strength and stability for our customers, shareholders and other stakeholders. Our sustainability and financial strength are underpinned by an effective risk management process which helps us identify major risks to which we may be exposed, establish appropriate controls and take mitigating actions for the benefit of our customers and investors.

The Group's risk strategy is to invest its available capital to optimise the balance between return and risk while maintaining an appropriate level of economic (i.e. risk-based) capital and regulatory capital. Consequently, our risk management goals are to:
* Embed rigorous risk management throughout the business, based on setting clear risk appetites and staying within these;
* Allocate capital where it will make the highest returns on a risk-adjusted basis; and
* Meet the expectations of our customers, investors and regulators that we will maintain sufficient capital surpluses to meet our liabilities even if a number of extreme risks materialise.

Aviva's risk management framework has been designed and implemented to support these objectives. The key elements of our risk management framework comprise our risk appetite; risk governance, including risk policies and business standards, risk oversight committees and roles & responsibilities; and the processes we use to identify, measure, manage, monitor and report (IMMMR) risks, including the use of our risk models and stress and scenario testing.

Risk environment

The first six months of 2013 have seen an overall strengthening of the financial markets with monetary policies in the US, Europe and Japan helping to bolster this position. Global equities have rallied at the fastest rate seen in a number of years and corporate credit spreads have fallen to levels not seen since before the 2008 financial crisis. Sovereign bonds have also benefited from increased liquidity in the system, principally Europe and Japan, with yields registering the lowest historical rates seen to date. Currencies remain volatile as investors are quick to respond to political and monetary updates.

As discussions on the Omnibus II Directive (the amendments to the Solvency II Directive) and technical standards continue, there is still significant uncertainty over the detailed requirements of the new European prudential regime. Aviva continues to actively participate in the development of Solvency II through key European industry working groups.

On 18 July 2013 Aviva plc was identified by the Financial Stability Board as being a Global Systemically Important Insurer ("G-SII"). In common with other G-SIIs and Global Systemically Important Financial Institutions, this designation implies an enhanced level of group supervision and the requirement for Aviva to develop a Systemic Risk Mitigation Plan and Recovery and Resolution Plans.

Risk profile

We continue to manage our risk profile to reflect Aviva's objective of maintaining financial strength and reducing capital volatility. We disposed of the remainder of our holding in Delta Lloyd in January 2013 and our exposure to Italian government bonds continues to be reduced, reflected in the sell down of approximately £1 billion (gross of NCI, redemptions, and purchases) during the first half of 2013. As described below, a number of foreign exchange rate, credit and equity hedges are in place and restrictions on non-domestic investment in sovereign and corporate debt from Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain remain in place.

Going forward, the Group's focus will continue to be on building the balance sheet and cash-flow position, and decreasing the balance sheet volatility and required economic capital. Our risk management processes enable us to monitor all our capital measures and to identify and manage mismatches between our assets and liabilities. These processes include the use of derivative hedges which are described in more detail below.

Material risks and uncertainties

In accordance with the requirements of the FCA Handbook (DTR 4.2.7) we provide an update here on the material risks and uncertainties facing the Group. The types of risks to which the Group is exposed have not changed significantly over the half-year to 30 June 2013 and remain credit, market, life insurance, general insurance, liquidity, asset management, operational and reputational risks. These risks are described below. Further detail on these risks is given within note 56 of the Aviva plc annual report and accounts 2012.

(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 enable the early identification of potential issues. Refer to section D3.3.5 of this report for details of our exposures to Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Spain and Italy.

During the first half of 2013 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. At 30 June 2013, the proportion of our shareholder debt securities that are investment grade has remained stable at 88.6% (31 December 2012: 88.1%).# B18 - Risk management continued

(b) Market risk

We continue to limit our direct equity exposure. As discussed earlier, a rolling central equity hedging strategy remains in place to 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. In particular, a key objective is to match the duration of our annuity liabilities with assets of the same duration. These assets include corporate bonds, residential mortgages and commercial mortgages. Should they default before maturity, it is assumed that the Group can reinvest in assets of a similar risk and return profile, which is subject to market conditions. Interest rate hedges are used to manage asymmetric interest rate exposures in some of our life insurance businesses as well as an efficient way to manage cash flow and duration matching (the most material examples relate to guaranteed annuity exposures in both UK and Ireland). 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 earlier, hedges have also been used to protect the Group's capital against a significant depreciation in local currency versus sterling. At 30 June 2013 the Group had in place Euro and Canadian Dollar hedges with notional values of £1.1 billion and £0.15 billion respectively. These hedges are used to protect the Group's capital against a significant depreciation in the local currency versus sterling.

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk of not being able to make payments as they become due because there are insufficient assets in cash form or that can easily be turned into cash. The relatively illiquid nature of insurance liabilities is a potential source of additional investment return by allowing us to invest in higher yielding, but less liquid assets such as commercial mortgages. The Group seeks to ensure that it maintains sufficient liquid financial resources to meet its obligations as they fall due through the application of a Group liquidity risk policy and business standard. At Group and business unit level, there is a liquidity risk appetite which requires that sufficient liquid resources be maintained to cover net outflows in a stress scenario. The Company's main sources of liquidity are liquid assets held within the Company and Aviva Group Holdings Limited (AGH), and dividends received from the Group's insurance and asset management businesses. Sources of liquidity in normal markets also includes a variety of short and long-term instruments including commercial papers and medium and long-term debt. In addition to the existing liquid resources and expected inflows, the Group and Company maintain significant undrawn committed borrowing facilities (£1.5 billion) from a range of leading international banks to further mitigate this risk.

(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 2013. Our economic exposure to longevity risk has increased as the Group continues to write significant volumes of individual annuity new business in the UK adding to an already significant in force portfolio. Persistency risk remains significant and continues to have a volatile outlook, with underlying performance linked to economic conditions. Businesses across the Group mitigate this risk through a range of customer retention activities. The Group has continued to write substantial volumes of life protection business, and to utilise reinsurance to reduce exposure to potential mortality losses. All life insurance risks benefit from significant diversification against other risks in the portfolio, limiting the impact on the Group's aggregate risk profile. Provisions made for insurance liabilities are inherently uncertain. Due to this uncertainty, life insurance reserves are regularly reviewed by qualified and experienced actuaries at the business unit and Group level in accordance with the Group's reserving framework. This and other risks are subject to an overarching risk management framework and various mechanisms to govern and control our risks and exposures.

(e) General insurance risk

The Group writes a balanced portfolio of general insurance risk (including personal motor; household; commercial motor; property and liability) across a geographically diversified spread of markets including UK; Ireland; Canada; France; Italy; Turkey and Poland. This risk is assumed in line with our underwriting and pricing expertise, to provide an appropriate level of returns for an acceptable level of risk. Underwriting discipline and a robust governance process is at the core of the Group's underwriting strategy. Provisions made for insurance liabilities are inherently uncertain. Due to this uncertainty, general insurance reserves are regularly reviewed by qualified and experienced actuaries at the business unit and Group level in accordance with the Group's reserving framework. These and other key risks, including the occurrence of unexpected claims from a single source or cause and inadequate reinsurance protection/risk transfer, are subject to an overarching risk management framework and various mechanisms to govern and control our risks and exposures.

During the first half of 2013, Aviva's general insurance risk profile has remained stable. As with life insurance risks, general insurance risks also benefit from the significant diversification that arises from being part of a large and diverse portfolio, limiting the impact on the Group's aggregate risk profile. Losses from the Alberta flooding event in Canada are within the Group's risk appetite and will therefore be largely retained within the Group. On July 7, 2013, Toronto experienced a severe storm causing flooding. As a result our general insurance operations are expected to record a loss from this event, which will be recorded in the third quarter results. 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. Aviva successfully completed the renewal of its group-wide catastrophe reinsurance protection on 1 April 2013.

(f) Asset management risk

Asset management risk arises through exposure to negative investment performance, fund liquidity, and factors that influence franchise value such as product development appropriateness and capability, and client retention. Aviva is directly exposed to the risks associated with operating an asset management business through its ownership of Aviva Investors. The underlying risk profile of our asset management risk is derived from investment performance, specialist investment professionals and leadership, product development capabilities, fund liquidity, margin, client retention, regulatory developments, fiduciary and contractual responsibilities. These key risks are monitored on an on-going basis with issues escalated to the appropriate governance committee.

(g) Operational risk

All of our businesses are subject to operational risks, including the risk of direct or indirect loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal or external processes, systems and human error or misconduct or from external events. Our systems and processes on which we are dependent to serve our customers are designed to appropriately identify and address the operational risks associated with our activities. However, they may nonetheless fail due to IT malfunctions, human error, intentional disruption or hacking of IT systems, business interruptions, non-performance by third parties or other external events. This could disrupt business operations resulting in material reputational damage and the loss of customers, and have a consequent material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Although we have taken steps to manage these operational risks, we cannot anticipate the details or timing of all possible operational and systems failures which may adversely impact our business.

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 to Solvency II and prepare for the necessary business changes. Similarly, we are monitoring the development of IFRS 4 Phase 2 and will prepare for the necessary business changes. Execution risk is inherent in the completion of all strategic transactions including the pending disposal of the Company's US business. Such risks include uncertainty in relation to obtaining the required regulatory approvals on satisfactory terms for the change of control envisaged by such transactions.# (h) 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.

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 2013, 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 flows and related notes. 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 Conduct Authority. As disclosed in note B1, the annual financial statements of the group are prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union and as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. 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 and as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

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 Conduct 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 in the half year report for the six months ended 30 June 2013 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 as adopted by the European Union and as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.
