Half Year Results 2010

Part 4 of 4
5 Independent auditors' review report
Introduction
We have been engaged by Standard Life plc (the Company) to review the financial information in the Half Year Results for the six months ended 30 June 2010, which comprises:
· The International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) condensed consolidated income statement, the IFRS consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the IFRS condensed consolidated statement of financial position, the IFRS consolidated statement of changes in equity, the IFRS condensed consolidated statement of cash flows and associated notes prepared in accordance with the IFRS accounting policies set out in Note 3.1 (the 'IFRS financial information'); and
· The European Embedded Value (EEV) consolidated income statement, the EEV earnings per share statement, the EEV consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the EEV consolidated statement of financial position, and associated notes prepared on the EEV basis set out in Note 4.1 (the 'EEV financial information').
We have read the other information contained in the Half Year Results and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the financial information in the Half Year Results.
Directors' responsibilities
The Half Year Results, including the financial information contained therein, is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the Directors. The Directors are responsible for preparing the Half Year Results in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Services Authority.
As disclosed in Note 3.1, the annual financial statements of the Group are prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union. The condensed set of financial statements included in the Half Year Results has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted by the European Union. The Directors are responsible for preparing the EEV financial information in accordance with the EEV basis set out in Note 4.1.
Our responsibility
Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the IFRS financial information included in the Half Year Results 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 Services Authority and for no other purpose.
Our responsibility on the EEV financial information in the Half Year Results is to express to the Company a conclusion based on our review. This report on the EEV financial information, including the conclusion, has been prepared for and only for the Company in accordance with our engagement letter dated 26 April 2010 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 IFRS financial information in the Half Year Results for the six months ended 30 June 2010 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 as adopted by the European Union and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Services Authority; and
· the EEV financial information in the Half Year Results report for the six months ended 30 June 2010 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the EEV basis set out in Note 4.1.

6.3 Exposure to investment property and financial assets continued
Shareholder exposure to investment property and financial assets
The total shareholder exposure to investment property and financial assets of £17.7bn (30 June 2009: £25.4bn; 31 December 2009: £26.2bn) includes £10.8bn (30 June 2009: £8.8bn; 31 December 2009: £10.1bn) of assets held by non-segregated funds of the Group's Canadian operations. The effective exposure of shareholders to assets of the non-segregated funds in Canada was significantly lower than the nominal level of exposure presented below because changes in the value of assets are typically accompanied by offsetting changes in the value of related liabilities. The shareholder exposure is limited to the net impact on the shareholder surplus and the value of any guarantees which may be triggered.

Shareholder exposure to debt securities excluding Canada non-segregated funds consists primarily of debt securities backing annuity liabilities, subordinated debt liabilities and the stock lending programme. The increase in exposure can be attributed to new annuity business written in the period as well as a change in the shareholder asset mix.
Standard Life Bank was sold on 1 January 2010 and therefore the Group has no exposure to Standard Life Bank assets after that date.

Debt securities classified as corporate include securities issued by corporate entities which carry government guarantees. Debt securities classified as other consist primarily of securities issued by supranational institutions.
Shareholder exposure to loans and receivables
Shareholders are directly exposed to loans and receivables of £2.6bn (30 June 2009: £10.6bn; 31 December 2009: £9.9bn) which, in 2010, primarily comprise the Canadian non-segregated funds commercial mortgage book. This mortgage book is deemed to be of very high quality. In 2009, loans and receivables also included Standard Life Bank's retail mortgage book.

6.4 Fair value hierarchy of financial instruments
To provide further information on the approach used to determine the fair value of certain financial assets and derivative financial liabilities measured as at fair value on the Group's IFRS statement of financial position, the fair value of these financial instruments has been categorised below to reflect the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1: Fair values measured using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: Fair values measured using inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)
Level 3: Fair values measured using inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs)
The amendment to IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures which requires the presentation of a fair value hierarchy analysis and related disclosures was issued in March 2009. The implementation of these requirements has resulted in some reclassifications compared to the indicative fair value hierarchy information presented in the Interim Results 2009. The most significant reclassifications resulted in some government bonds being classified as level 2 rather than level 1 and some corporate bonds being classified as level 3 rather than level 2 on the basis that their valuation is based on a single broker indicative quote. The comparative figures for 30 June 2009 in the following tables have been restated to reflect these revised classifications.

Level 1 financial instruments principally include equity securities listed on a recognised exchange, certain government and supranational institution bonds and exchange traded futures and options.
Level 2 financial instruments principally include certain government bonds, listed or publicly quoted corporate bonds, commercial paper, certificates of deposit and derivative instruments which are not exchange traded. Corporate bonds have generally been classified as level 2 as the composite price provided by external pricing providers may include, as an input, quotes provided by some banks that are not based on actual transaction prices.
Level 3 financial instruments principally include unlisted equity securities, being predominantly interests in private equity funds, listed or publicly quoted corporate bonds for which prices are not available from external pricing providers or where such prices are considered to be stale (including some asset backed securities) or are based on single broker indicative quotes and unquoted bonds where credit spreads, being a significant input to the valuation technique, are obtained from a broker or estimated internally.

7 Glossary
Acquisition costs
Expenses related to the procurement and processing of new business written including a share of overheads.
Annuity
A periodic payment made for an agreed period of time (usually up to the death of the recipient) in return for a cash sum. The cash sum can be paid as one amount or as a series of premiums. If the annuity commences immediately after the payment of the sum, it is termed an immediate annuity. If it commences at some future date, it is termed a deferred annuity.
Assets under administration (AUA)
A measure of the total assets that the Group administers on behalf of customers and institutional clients, it includes those assets for which the Group provides investment management services, as well as those assets that the Group administers where the customer has made a choice to select an external third party investment manager. Assets under administration reflect the value of the IFRS gross assets of the Group adjusted, where appropriate, for consolidation adjustments, inter-company assets and intangible assets. In addition, the definition includes third party assets administered by the Group which are not included in the consolidated statement of financial position.
Assumptions
Variables applied to data used to project expected outcomes.
Back book management
We choose to analyse our EEV operating profit before tax in the three components which reflect the focus of our business effort - core, efficiency and back book management. Back book management includes all non-expense related operating variances and assumption changes for covered business plus those development costs directly related to back book management initiatives and, for non-covered business, specific costs attributed to back book management.
Board
The board of Directors of the Company.
Capital resources (CR)
Capital resources include the assets in excess of liabilities, valued on a regulatory basis, and certain other components of capital.

Core
We choose to analyse our EEV operating profit before tax in the three components which reflect the focus of our business effort - core, efficiency and back book management. Core includes new business contribution, expected return and development costs for covered business excluding those development costs directly related to back book management initiatives and, for non-covered business, IFRS operating profit excluding specific costs attributable to back book management.
Covered business
The business covered by the EEV methodology. This should include any contracts that are regarded by local insurance supervisors as long-term or life insurance business and may cover other long-term life insurance, short-term life insurance such as group risk business and long-term accident and health business. Where short-term healthcare is regarded as part of or ancillary to a company's long-term life insurance business, then it may be regarded as long-term business. For covered business within the Standard Life Group please refer to the EEV methodology within the EEV supplementary information
Deferred acquisition costs (DAC)
The method of accounting whereby acquisition costs on long-term business are deferred in the statement of financial position as an asset and amortised over the life of those contracts. This leads to a smoothed recognition of up front expenses instead of the full cost in the year of sale.
Deferred income reserve (DIR)
The method of accounting whereby front end fees that relate to services to be provided in future periods are deferred in the statement of financial position as a liability and amortised over the life of those contracts. This leads to a smoothed recognition of up front income instead of the full income in the year of sale.
Development costs
Costs that are considered to be non-recurring and are reported separately from other expenses in the EEV movement analysis.
Director
A director of the Company.
Discounting
The reduction to present value at a given date of a future cash transaction at an assumed rate, using a discount factor reflecting the time value of money. The choice of a discount rate will usually greatly influence the value of insurance provisions, and may give indications on the conservatism of provisioning methods.
Dividend cover
This is a measure of how easily a company can pay its dividend from profit. It is calculated as IFRS operating profit after tax and minority interest divided by the total dividend for that financial period.
Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT)
EBIT is defined as earnings before interest, taxation, foreign exchange gains and losses, profit on partial disposal of investments in associates, divergence on financial guarantee costs, movement on contract for differences and restructuring costs. This KPI measures directly the underlying operating profitability.
EBIT margin
This is an industry measure of performance for investment management companies. It is calculated as EBIT divided by total revenue.
Earnings per share (EPS)
EPS is a commonly used financial metric which can be used to measure the profitability and strength of a company over time. EPS is calculated by dividing profit by the number of ordinary shares. Basic EPS uses the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS adjusts the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, for example share awards and share options awarded to employees.
Economic assumptions
Assumptions in relation to future interest rates, investment returns, inflation and tax. These assumptions and variances in relation to these assumptions are treated as non-operating profits/(losses) under EEV.
Efficiency
We choose to analyse our EEV operating profit before tax in the three components which reflect the focus of our business effort - core, efficiency and back book management. Efficiency includes covered business maintenance expense variances and assumption changes.
European Embedded Value (EEV)
The value to equity shareholders of the net assets plus the expected future profits on in-force business from a life assurance and pensions business. Prepared in accordance with the EEV Principles and Guidance issued in May 2004 by the CFO Forum and the Additional Guidance issued in October 2005. EEV reports the value of business in-force based on a set of best estimate assumptions, allowing for the impact of uncertainty inherent in future assumptions, the costs of holding required capital, the value of free surplus and TVOG.
EEV operating profit
Covered business EEV operating profit represents profit generated from new business sales and the in-force book of business, based on closing non-economic and opening economic assumptions. Covered business is defined above.
Non-covered business EEV operating profit generally represents IFRS operating profit. Non-covered business is defined below.
EEV operating profit capital and cash generation
This is a measure of the underlying shareholder capital and cash flow of the Group.
Covered business EEV operating capital and cash generation represents the EEV operating profit net worth (free surplus and required capital) on an after-tax basis.
Non-covered business EEV operating capital and cash generation represents EEV operating profit after tax (as defined above).
Expected return on EEV
Anticipated results based on applying opening assumptions to the opening EEV.
Experience variances
Current period differences between the actual experience incurred over the period and the assumptions used in the calculation of the embedded value, excluding new business non-economic experience variances which are captured in new business contribution.
Financial options and guarantees
Terms relating to covered business conferring potentially valuable guarantees underlying, or options to change, the level and nature of policyholder benefits and exercisable at the discretion of the policyholder, whose potential value is impacted by the behaviour of financial variables.
Free surplus
The amount of capital and any surplus allocated to, but not required to support, the in-force business covered by the EEV.
Group capital surplus
This is a regulatory measure of our financial strength and compares the Group's capital resources to its capital resource requirements in accordance with the Insurance Groups Directive.
Group, Standard Life Group or Standard Life
Prior to demutualisation on 10 July 2006, SLAC and its subsidiaries and, from demutualisation on 10 July 2006, the Company and its subsidiaries.
Heritage With Profits Fund (HWPF)
The Heritage With Profits Fund contains all existing business - both with profits and non profit - written before demutualisation in the UK, Irish or German branches, with the exception of the classes of business which the Scheme of Demutualisation allocated to the Proprietary Business Fund. This HWPF also contains increments to existing business.
Individual Capital Assessment (ICA)
The process by which the Financial Services Authority (FSA) requires insurance companies to make an assessment of the regulated company's own capital requirements, which is then reviewed and agreed by the FSA.
In-force
Long-term business which has been written before the period end and which has not terminated before the period end.
Interest margin
Net interest income for the year as a percentage of average total assets during the year disclosed in basis points (1/100th of 1%). This is a measure of how much margin the Group is making on its banking assets and measures the driver of income generation for this business.
Internal rate of return (IRR)
A measure of rate of return on an investment and so an indicator of capital efficiency. The IRR is equivalent to the discount rate at which the present value of the after-tax cash flows expected to be earned over the lifetime of new business written is equal to the capital invested to support the writing of the business.
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)
International Financial Reporting Standards are accounting standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The Group's consolidated financial statements are required to be prepared in accordance with IFRS.
IFRS operating profit
IFRS operating profit is calculated by adjusting profit attributable to equity holders before tax for the impact of short-term economic changes to asset and liability values. The Directors believe that by removing this volatility from operating profit, they are presenting a more meaningful indication of the long-term performance of the Group.
IFRS tangible equity per share
Total IFRS equity, less non-controlling interests and intangible assets, divided by the diluted number of issued shares at the end of the period.
IFRS underlying profit
Underlying profit is calculated by adjusting profit attributable to equity holders before tax for items such as volatility arising from accounting mismatches, impairment of intangibles and certain restructuring expenses.
Key performance indicators (KPI)
This is a measure by reference to which the development, performance or position of the business can be measured effectively.
Maintenance expenses
Expenses related to the servicing of the in-force book of business (including investment and termination expenses and a share of overheads).
Market Consistent Embedded Value (MCEV)
The European Insurance CFO Forum Market Consistent Embedded Value Principles©1 (MCEV Principles) were issued by the CFO Forum on 4 June 2008 to replace the current EEV Principles and Additional Guidance and were designed to improve the transparency and comparability of embedded value reporting. On 19 December 2008, the CFO Forum announced that it would undertake further work to seek to improve the consistency of certain MCEV Principles, particularly in light of volatile economic markets.
In light of these developments, which may result in significant amendments to MCEV, the CFO Forum announced on 22 May 2009 that it believed that it was sensible to defer the mandatory MCEV reporting for all member firms until 2011. A further update on the work of the CFO Forum will be provided later this year.

New business strain as a percentage of PVNBP sales (see PVNBP below).
Non-covered business
Mainly includes third party global investment management, banking, healthcare and other businesses not associated with the life assurance and pensions business. Non-covered business excludes the global investment management look through profits and the return on mutual funds which are recognised in covered business. Non-covered business is excluded from the EEV methodology and is included within the Group EEV on an IFRS basis.
Non-economic assumptions
Assumptions in relation to future levels of mortality, morbidity, persistency and expenses. These assumptions, and variances in relation to these assumptions, are included as operating profits/(losses) under EEV.
Non profit policy

Regular premium
A regular premium contract (as opposed to a single premium contract), is one where the policyholder agrees at inception to make regular payments throughout the term of the contract.
Required capital

Underwriting profit
The earned premium remaining after losses have been paid and administrative expenses have been deducted. It does not include any investment income earned on held premiums.
