1Q 2012 Activity Indicators
- Total revenues up 1% to Euro 28 billion
- Life & Savings APE up 2% driven by Protection & Health
- Property & Casualty revenues up 3% driven by underwriting discipline
- Asset Management net outflows reduced to Euro -5 billion
"In the first quarter of 2012, we continued to focus on the delivery of our Ambition AXA initiatives. Thanks to the quality and diversification of our distribution network, we notably increased our top line in Protection & Health and Property & Casualty, those businesses which are less sensitive to financial markets", commented Denis Duverne, Deputy CEO of AXA.
"In Life & Savings, our ongoing efforts to improve new business mix continued to bear fruit, with Protection & Health now representing nearly a half of new business volumes. This resulted in a further increase in new business margin to 25% in a lower interest rates environment."
"In Property & Casualty, we increased revenues, benefiting from the growth of our portfolio, sustained pricing and underwriting discipline. High growth markets delivered strong top line performance."
"We also reduced the net outflows of Asset Management business while exiting from some unprofitable contracts."

Revenues
- Total Revenues were up 1% to Euro 28,056 million.
- Life & Savings revenues were stable at Euro 15,956 million.
New Business Volume (APE1) was up 2% to Euro 1,670 million mainly driven by growth in General Account ("G/A") Protection & Health business up 6%, partly offset by a 2% decrease in Unit-Linked APE and by a 1% decrease in G/A Savings business. Mutual funds & Other APE was up 4%.
New Business Value (NBV2) was up 4% to Euro 419 million, mainly driven by an improved business mix towards G/A Protection & Health and lower unit-costs, partly offset by the impact of lower interest rates vs. 1Q11.
As a result, new business margin was up 0.5 pt to 25.1%, with high margin levels in both G/A Protection & Health business at 45% and Unit-Linked business at 21%.
Net inflows amounted to Euro +2.2 billion vs. Euro +3.5 billion in 1Q11. By business, we experienced strong net inflows in G/A Protection & Health (Euro +2.8 billion) and continued positive net inflows in Unit-Linked (Euro +0.7 billion), partly offset by net outflows in G/A Savings (Euro -1.4 billion) mainly at AXA MPS in Italy, and in France.
• Property & Casualty revenues were up 3% to Euro 9,973 million. Personal lines revenues grew 3% largely driven by 3.5% average price increase. Commercial lines revenues grew 4% mainly driven by 2.5% average price increase and higher sum insured.
On average, prices increased by 3.0% overall.
• Asset Management revenues were down 10% to Euro 771 million, mainly impacted by lower management fees and lower research fees at AllianceBernstein as well as lower real estate transaction fees at AXA IM. Assets under management increased by Euro 18 billion over the period. Net outflows stood at Euro -5 billion.
Solvency update (03/31/2012)
- Regulatory solvency I ratio was estimated at ca. 200%.

- G/A Protection & Health new business APE (44% of total) was up 6% to Euro 734 million, mainly driven by Germany (where Health sales were supported by brokers' anticipation of a change in regulation capping their commissions starting from April), Hong Kong (mainly due to a marketing campaign in the bancassurance network) and by Japan (mainly driven by strong sales of redesigned medical products), partly offset by lower Group Life sales in Switzerland after exceptionally strong sales in 1Q11.
- Unit-Linked new business APE (29% of total) was down 2% to Euro 483 million, with:
- (i) Continental Europe3 down 18%, impacted by Germany (down 37%) mainly as a result of lower sales of annuity products as well as the curtailment of "Twinstar" Variable Annuity product, and France down 10% driven by individual savings affected by the negative performance of the French individual Unit-Linked savings market (down 31%). Yet French Unit-Linked share in Savings premiums was 27% in 1Q12 (above market average of 13%);
- (ii) CEE down 32% mainly driven by Poland, as a result of the reallocation to the State of the majority of Pension Funds new business following a new regulation;
- (iii) the US up 20% driven by the increase of non GMxB Variable Annuity products with both the continued success of the "Structured Capital Strategies" product now distributed through wholesale channels and the new "Retirement Gateway" product, along with increased sales of GMxB Variable Annuity products, notably driven by the refreshed "Accumulator";
- (iv) South-East Asia, India & China up 19%, mainly reflecting strong sales through Bank Mandiri in Indonesia.
- G/A Savings new business APE (17% of total) was down 1% to Euro 292 million, driven by France down 15% mainly due to individual savings affected by continued selective sales in a context of lower interest rates as well as by the negative performance of the French traditional savings market, and by Italy down 47% mainly impacted by AXA MPS given more selective sales with a stronger focus on Unit-Linked (+8%) and increased competition from banking products, partly offset by Belgium up 87% as a result of a two-month sales campaign in a context of higher Belgian sovereign interest rates.
- Mutual funds & Other new business APE (10% of total) was up 4% to Euro 161 million as strong performance in the UK through the wrap platform Elevate and in Hong Kong were partly offset by lower sales in the US.
As a result, new business value (NBV2) was up 4% to Euro 419 million thanks to a continued improvement in business mix towards G/A Protection & Health, and increased volumes, partly offset by the impact of lower interest rates on the profitability of GMxB Variable Annuity products.
In mature markets, NBV was up 3% to Euro 313 million. In high growth markets, NBV was up 6% to Euro 106 million (25% of total NBV) mainly in South-East Asia, India & China (up 31%), as a result of strong growth in volumes of highly profitable products, partly offset by CEE (down 20%) as a result of the reallocation to the State of the majority of Pension Funds new business in Poland following a new regulation.
NBV margin was up 0.5 point to 25%, comprised of 22% NBV margin in mature markets and 42% NBV margin in high growth markets.
New Business margin improvement driven by business mix

• New Business Volume (APE1) was up 2% to Euro 1,670 million, as strong sales in Belgium (+68%), Germany (+15%), the US (+8%), South-East Asia, India & China (+18%) and Japan (+12%) were partly offset by decreases in France (-7%), CEE (-30%), Switzerland (-8%) and Italy (-21%).

The United States
New business APE increased by 8% to Euro 277 million, primarily driven by strong increase in non GMxB Variable Annuity products with both the continued success of the "Structured Capital Strategies" product now distributed through wholesale channels and the new "Retirement Gateway" product, along with increased sales of GMxB Variable Annuity products, notably driven by the refreshed "Accumulator", while G/A Protection & Health business continued to increase.
NBV margin was down 4 points to 8%, mainly reflecting the impact of lower interest rates on the profitability of GMxB Variable Annuity products, partly compensated by both lower unit costs reflecting higher volumes.
France
New business APE was down 7% to Euro 318 million, mostly impacted by:
(i) G/A Savings sales down 15% mainly in individual savings, affected by continued selective sales in a context of lower interest rates as well as by the negative performance of the French traditional savings market (down 11%), and by
(ii) Unit-Linked sales down 10% driven by individual savings affected by the negative performance of the French Individual Unit-Linked savings market (down 31%). Unit-Linked share in Savings premiums increased by 1 point to 27% in 1Q12 (above market average of 13%) partly offset by
(iii) G/A Protection & Health sales up 2%, mainly driven by an increased new business in individual Health as well as the continued good traction of the "Family Protection" product.
NBV margin was stable at 14%, as the improvement in business mix (higher proportion of G/A Protection & Health products and higher share of Unit-Linked products within Savings sales) was offset by higher unit costs reflecting lower volumes.
The United Kingdom
New business APE was up 8% to Euro 152 million, mainly due to strong Mutual Funds sales through the Elevate wrap platform and to Unit-Linked products notably Corporate pension through AXA Wealth, partly offset by lower volumes in offshore bond business.
NBV margin was down 4 points to 2% following a deterioration of business mix as market uncertainties triggered a decrease in higher margin offshore bond Unit-Linked products while lower margin Corporate pension products sales increased.
Northern, Central & Eastern Europe
• Germany new business APE was up 15% to Euro 186 million, mainly driven by strong Health sales supported by brokers' anticipation of a change in regulation capping their commissions starting from April, as well as higher sales in G/A Savings Group pension business. This was partly offset by lower sales of Unit-Linked annuity products in an uncertain market, and the curtailment of "Twinstar" Variable Annuity product.
NBV margin was down 2 points to 24%, mainly due to a slightly less favorable business mix.
• Switzerland new business APE was down 8% to Euro 201 million, mostly driven by Group Life after exceptionally strong sales in 1Q11.
NBV margin was up 6 points to 46% due to an improvement in business mix.
• Belgium new business APE was up 68% to Euro 81 million, mostly due to strong increase in G/A Savings sales as a result of a two-month sales campaign in a context of higher Belgian sovereign interest rates.
NBV margin was up 7 points to 6%, driven by an improved product mix as well as lower unit costs reflecting higher sales.
• Central & Eastern Europe new business APE was down 30% to Euro 45 million mainly driven by Poland, with the reallocation to the State of the majority of Pension Funds new business following a new regulation.
NBV margin was up 3 points to 23%, mainly due to an improved business mix.
Asia Pacific
• Japan new business APE was up 12% to Euro 130 million, mainly driven by strong sales in Protection arising from the dynamism of redesigned medical products, as well as an increase in Unit-Linked mainly driven by GMxB Variable Annuity products, reflecting a higher number of bank distributors.
NBV margin was up 3 points to 66%, as a result of lower unit costs reflecting higher volumes, partly offset by the impact of lower interest rates on the profitability of GMxB Variable Annuity products.
• Hong Kong new business APE was up 3% to Euro 91 million, due to G/A Protection & Health following a marketing campaign in the bancassurance network, and in Mutual Funds, partly offset by lower Unit-Linked sales mainly due to the non-recurrence of a marketing campaign in 1Q11.
NBV margin was down 3 points to 60%, mainly driven by a slightly deteriorated business mix due to a lower share of more profitable Unit-Linked products.
• South-East Asia, India & China new business APE was up 18% to Euro 102 million, reflecting strong sales of Unit-Linked products as well as good momentum in G/A Protection and Health, notably in Thailand.
NBV margin was up 4 points to 39%, mostly reflecting an improved business and country mix.
Mediterranean and Latin America Region (MedLA)
- New business APE was down 22% to Euro 87 million, mainly impacted by lower G/A Savings sales (i) in Italy down 47% driven by AXA MPS given more selective sales with a stronger focus on Unit-Linked (+8%) and increased competition from banking products, and (ii) in Spain due to increased selectivity in a competitive environment.
- NBV margin was up 7 points to 19%, mainly reflecting significant improvement in business mix, more than offsetting higher unit costs.
Property & Casualty
Property & Casualty revenues were up 3% to Euro 9,973 million. Personal lines revenues grew 3% largely driven by 3.5% average price increase. Commercial lines revenues grew 4% mainly driven by 2.5% average price increase and higher sum insured.
On average, prices increased by 3.0% overall.
Property & Casualty revenues strongly increased in high growth markets by 22%, with strong performances in Mexico, Turkey and the Gulf region. Mature markets were up 2%. Direct decreased by 3%, as lower sales in the UK due to a portfolio cleansing after a period of rapid growth more than offset sales dynamism in the other countries (+14%).
Net new personal contracts amounted to +268k.
