Retail Germany – Life: de-risking measures to secure guaranteed rates

Selected measures implemented

Reduction of profit participation – Future decisions will remain sensitive to achievable investment yields

Healthy ZZR – Reserves based on a 3.5% interest rate and thus higher than regulatorily required

Swaption Bonds – Ensure high yields without depletion of the company's equity through derivatives; bought on strategic high level with all receiver bonds fixed on low level

Pre-Purchases – Lead to an extension of maturity and duration and thus improving current investment income in future years; regulatory limits fully exploited for HDI Lebensversicherung and neue leben

Cash Flow Matching – Approximate matching of liquid cash flows of assets and liabilities to optimise ALM

In addition to measures above, internal scenario analysis supports resilience for Retail Germany's traditional life business

Pro-active approach additionally strengthens Talanx's German life business

Investment Portfolio – Low valuation risks 3

Benchmarking Level 3 assets Comments 1

  • IFRS 7 requires financial instruments that are recognised at fair value to be assigned to a three-level fair-value hierarchy
  • Level 3 uses input data which is not based on observable market data
  • At year-end 2012, Talanx allocated 4% of financial assets measured at fair value to this category. This compares with 37% at Level 1 (unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets) and 59% at Level 2 (measurement using inputs that are based on observable market data and are not allocated to Level 1)
  • The low share of Level 3 assets relative to other categories in the fair value hierarchy as well as to peers underlines the transparency of Talanx's balance sheet

Ordinary investment yield 4.0% 4.0%

Yield on funds withheld and contract deposits 2.7% 2.6%
Total investment yield 3.8% 4.1%
  • In 2012, Talanx achieved a return on investments under own management of 4.3%
  • Ordinary investment income makes up the majority share. In 2012, it contributed 4.0%pts to the overall return on investment
  • Both realised as well as unrealised capital gains also contributed visibly to the 2012 return on investment
  • We largely refrain from such extraordinary contribution in our return on investment outlook of ~3.5% in 2013

Ordinary investment income key driving force of Talanx's return on investment

Re-investment of assets – Current yields 5

Re-investment yields by segments Comments

2012
Industrial Lines 3.7%
Retail International 5.9%
Retail Germany 3.3%
Non-life 3.3%
Life 3.3%
  • In 2012, Talanx has achieved re-investment yields of well above 3% in all its primary insurance divisions
  • This has not been accompanied by higher risktaking. In the course of 2012, the share of bonds with a rating of "A" or better has only slightly decreased from 86% to 83%
  • International growth pays off, in particular for Retail International, which operates in regions with a more favourable interest rate and yield environment
  • Investment opportunities in alternative assets such as infrastructure help improving the yield and the risk-return profile of new investments

Solid re-investment yields in a challenging interest rate environment

Infrastructure assets still represent less than 1% of investments under own management, but are an increasingly important addition to our investment portfolio.

Generally, investments in infrastructure assets can be conducted as multi-asset / fund-of-funds investments, or single-asset investments

Top 3 current infrastructure investments Investment criteria for infrastructure assets

Criteria Characteristics of infrastructure
investments
Long-term,
stable cash flows
Long-term concessions, regulated
pricing, low price elasticity
Low volatility Monopolistic structures,
high barriers to entry
Inflation protection Proceeds linked to CPI
Diversification Low correlation with fixed income,
stocks and real estate

Risk-averse investment approach: typically, indirect investments to leverage fund management expertise in this area, to avoid liability and reputational risks and to achieve good diversification.

In case of direct investment opportunities, we prefer co-investments to lever the experience of sector experts.

Pension accounting – Recognition of actuarial gains and losses (IAS 19)

Effects on equity (€m) Comments

The effects shown below have a (net) negative impact on Talanx's Solvency I margin of 9%. Solvency I ratio was 225% as of 2012 and would have been reduced by the effects shown below to 216%

For additional information please refer to pp. 142/143 in the Annual Report 2012

Limited impact from IAS19 amendments

  • In June 2011 the IASB published amendments to IAS 19 (Employee Benefits) which were ratified by the EU on 5 June 2012
  • The key amendment is the abolishment of the "corridor method": future actuarial gains and losses must now be accounted for fully under "Other Comprehensive Income" in shareholders' equity
  • Moreover, calculation of the net interest income from so-called plan assets will be determined based on the discount rate rather than on the expected rate of return; past service cost is recognised immediately
  • In terms of partial retirement benefit obligations, additions are no longer to be accumulated in full upon the completion of the contract, but proportionately over the working period of the recipient
