Restating 2001 modified statutory life profits to account for the impact of exchange rate movements in 2002 would result in modified statutory life profits being restated from £1,194 million to £1,201 million for the year to 31 December 2001. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Page 31 Supplementary analyses (a) New business contribution - after the effect of solvency margin 2002 2001 £m £m United Kingdom 269 315 Europe (excluding UK) France 35 44 Ireland 26 29 Italy 27 21 Netherlands (including Belgium and Luxembourg) 1 11 Poland 7 7 Spain 69 50 Other (8) (4) International 26 6 ------ ------ 452 479 ====== ====== (b) Experience variances - 31 December 2002 Experience variances include the impact of the difference between expense, demographic and persistency assumptions, and actual experience incurred in the period.

In the Netherlands, they relate to the cost of developing the direct operations and start up costs in Belgium. In International they primarily relate to the costs of building infrastructure in the US life operations. (2) Actual mortality and morbidity profits in the UK relate to better experience than anticipated by our start of year assumptions. (3) In the Netherlands, fiscal changes introduced last year have reduced the levels of personal tax relief available to policyholders investing in basic life annuity products and in group savings schemes. This has led to one-off premium reductions and adverse lapse experience on existing contracts. (c) Operating assumptions - 31 December 2002 Changes in operating assumptions are made when the assumed future levels of expenses, mortality or other operating assumptions are expected to change permanently. An analysis of operating assumptions is as follows: Maintenance Mortality/ expenses (1) morbidity (2) Lapses (3) Other (4) Total £m £m £m £m £m UK 5 (123) (15) 5 (128) France 7 - 24 (20) 11 Netherlands (including Belgium and Luxembourg) 86 (6) (3) 37 114 Europe 33 54 (60) (35) (8) International 5 - - 15 20 ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ Total 136 (75) (54) 2 9 ====== ====== ====== ====== ====== (1) In the Netherlands, profits arise partly from a reduction in unit costs secured from cost savings initiatives and partly from changes to the basis of allocation of expenses to life and savings products. In Europe, profits arise from reductions in the unit costs in Poland. (2) In the UK, the loss reflects the impact of strengthening annuitant mortality assumptions net of offsetting changes. In Europe, profits arise in Poland following alignment of assumptions with current experience. (3) In Europe, the adverse lapse assumption charge arises primarily in Poland where more conservative rates are now adopted reflecting the current economic environment. (4) In the Netherlands, increases to annual management fees were effected at the end of 2001. In Europe, reductions in the Polish policy charges have an adverse effect while in the US the reduction in the risk margin assumptions has given rise to profits. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Page 32 (d) Non-insurance operations - operating result 2002 2001 £m £m Hill House Hammond 4 4 Norwich Union Equity Release and other personal finance subsidiaries (6) (3) Your Move (9) (17) Norwich Union Life Services (54) 9 Other (4) 14 ------ ------ (69) 7 ====== ====== The operating result from our equity release business in the UK is included within the non-insurance results on a statutory basis.

The PLPs are managed by general partners ('GPs') in which the UK long-term business shareholder companies hold equity stakes, and which themselves hold nominal stakes in the PLPs. Most of the PLPs have raised external debt, secured on the respective property portfolios. The lenders are only entitled to obtain payment, of both interest and principal, to the extent that there are sufficient resources in their respective PLPs. The lenders have no recourse whatsoever to the policyholder or shareholders' funds of any company of the Aviva Group. Accounting for the PLPs depends on the shareholdings in the GPs and the terms in each partnership agreement. Where the partnership is managed by a contractual agreement such that no one party exerts control, the PLPs have been accounted for as joint ventures. In addition, the Group has invested in a joint venture life assurance company in China which had not commenced operations at 31 December 2002. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Page 35 General insurance - geographical ratio analysis Claims ratio Expense ratio Combined operating ratio 2002 2001 2002 2001 2002 2001 % % % % % % United Kingdom 70.0% 71.7% 10.4% 10.5% 101% 102% France 71.1% 71.5% 13.9% 13.1% 102% 104% Ireland 85.4% 81.3% 13.0% 9.9% 100% 101% Netherlands 64.6% 65.7% 19.6% 19.0% 105% 104% Canada 74.1% 78.1% 11.3% 12.9% 102% 107% ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ Continuing operations 71.2% 72.4% 11.3% 11.9% 102% 103% Discontinued operations Australia and New Zealand 69.1% 69.7% 13.2% 14.2% 98% 99% ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ 71.0% 72.3% 11.5% 12.0% 101% 102% ====== ====== ====== ====== ====== ====== The Group withdrew from the US general insurance market in 2000 and the disposal of the operations was completed in 2001.

The Group's capital, from all funding sources, has been allocated such that the capital employed by trading operations is greater than the capital provided by its shareholders and its subordinated debtholders. As a result, the Group is able to enhance the returns earned on its equity capital.

At 31 December 2002 we had £17.3 billion (31 December 2001: £19.5 billion, restated) of total capital employed in our trading operations which is efficiently financed by a combination of equity shareholders' funds, preference capital, subordinated debt and internal and external borrowings. In 2002, the total capital employed in our long-term savings operations fell as a result of the reduction in the future value of inforce business. The disposals of a number of general insurance businesses, including Australia and New Zealand, CGU Courtage and Plus Ultra, and the impact of falling equity markets on the asset base reduced the total capital employed in our general insurance businesses. In addition to its external funding sources, the Group has a number of internal debt arrangements in place. These have allowed the assets supporting technical liabilities to be invested into the pool of central capital for use across the Group. They have also enabled the shareholders to deploy cash from some parts of the business to others in order to fund growth. Although intra-group loans in nature, they are counted as part of the capital base for the purpose of capital management. All internal loans have been negotiated at market rates and are appropriately serviced. The reduction in external debt of £0.6 billion is as a result of the repayment of commercial paper and the early redemption of debenture loans. Internal debt has increased during 2002 reflecting the impact of two offsetting items. In the early part of 2002 corporate assets were used to pay the third instalment of the Berkshire Hathaway premium, thereby reducing internal debt. During the latter part of the year we formalised a number of intra group arrangements which increased internal debt. On 2 January 2003 we paid the final instalment of the Berkshire Hathaway premium of approximately £0.5 billion which will reduce internal debt by the same amount after the year end. The ratio of the Group's external debt to shareholders' funds was 18% (2001 restated: 20%). Interest cover, which measures the extent to which external interest costs are covered by achieved operating profit, was 14 times (2001: 12 times). -------------------------------------------------------------------- Page 40 Group capital structure (continued) Deployment of equity shareholders' funds Restated* 2002 2001 Fixed income Other Equities securities investments Other net £m £m £m assets Total Total £m £m £m Assets Long-term savings 523 3,552 674 977 5,726 5,115 General insurance, health, corporate and other business 2,603 2,481 1,115 (292) 5,907 6,734 ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ 3,126 6,033 1,789 685 11,633 11,849 Goodwill 1,271 1,341 Additional value of in-force long-term 4,422 5,948 business ------ ------ Assets backing total capital employed in continuing operations 17,326 19,138 External debt (2,053) (2,651) Internal debt (3,671) (3,284) Subordinated debt (1,190) (1,157) ------ ------ 10,412 12,046 Minority interests (743) (651) Preference capital (200) (200) ------ ------ Total continuing operations 9,469 11,195 Discontinued operations - Australia and New Zealand - 357 ------ ------ Equity shareholders' funds 9,469 11,552 ====== ====== * Restated for the effect of Financial Reporting Standard 19. Our exposure to equities has reduced from £4.9 billion at 31 December 2001 to £3.1 billion, which represents 18% of our total capital employed. This reduction reflects the divestment of businesses during the year, the impact of falling markets and the reduction of equity holdings. During the course of the year, as part of the ongoing portfolio management process, the Group reduced its strategic stakes in Societe Generale, Munich Re and The Royal Bank of Scotland Group. The market values of these holdings at the end of 2002 were £595 million, £372 million and £956 million respectively (2001: £1,100 million, £1,203 million and £1,546 million respectively) and represented 3.8%, 2.8% and 2.2% (2001: 6.6%, 3.6% and 3.2%) of the respective issued share capital of these companies.

The return on capital is calculated as the after-tax return on opening equity capital, based on operating profit, including life achieved profit, before amortisation of goodwill and exceptional items. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Page 41 Group capital structure (continued) Capital management In managing its capital, the Group aims to: (i) match the profile of its assets and liabilities, taking account of the risks inherent in each business. In the case of the Group's life operations, which have long-term liabilities, the majority of capital is held in fixed income securities. A significant proportion of the capital supporting the Group's general insurance and health operations is held in equities, reflecting the relatively low risk profile of these businesses; (ii) maintain financial strength to support new business growth and satisfy the requirements of its policyholders, regulators and rating agencies; (iii) retain financial flexibility by maintaining strong liquidity, including significant unutilised committed credit lines, and access to a range of capital markets; and (iv) allocate capital efficiently to support growth and repatriate excess capital where appropriate. An important aspect of the Group's overall capital management process is the setting of target risk-adjusted rates of return for individual business units, which are aligned to performance objectives and ensure that the Group is focused on the creation of value for shareholders. Risk based capital The Group uses risk based capital as one of several measures to assess its capital requirements for its general insurance businesses. Financial modelling techniques enhance our practice of active capital management, ensuring sufficient capital is available to protect against unforeseen events and adverse scenarios, and risk management. Our aim continues to be the optimal usage of capital through appropriate allocation to our businesses. Our risk based capital model is part of a longer term development programme for more complex risk monitoring techniques in part to meet future industry standards. Within a few years we expect to agree capital requirements with the regulator on the basis of our risk based capital models. This represents the level of capital necessary to enable the general insurance business to meet the statutory minimum solvency margin over a five year period with 99% probability of not requiring further capital. Our current risk based capital methodology for general insurance business assesses insurance, market and credit risks and makes prudent allowance for diversification benefits. We consider risks over a five year period allowing for planned levels of business growth. Based on our model, our risk based capital requirement may be expressed as 36% of net written premiums. Capital employed in our general insurance business after goodwill and adding back the claims equalisation reserve was £4 billion at 31 December 2002 and required capital on a risk basis was £3.1 billion, giving a surplus capital position of £0.9 billion.
