What’s the opportunity?The annuity market is currently running at about £11bn per annum. That’s an astounding £11,000,000,000 in single premiums put into annuity contracts every year. Bearing in mind an annuity is a once and for all decision, this is a very big market.

Only 5.7% of this was accounted for by investment-linked annuities in the year Q4 2010 – Q3 2011. This means that an overwhelming proportion of people are buying incomes for life with no prospect for increases in the future. Would you take a job with no pay rises for the next 20-30 years?

Investment-linked annuities offer a real alternative to conventional annuities and drawdown pensions. Falling annuity rates and rising longevity, along with legislative/regulatory changes, mean that investment-linked annuities offer an opportunity to keep some exposure to investment returns while also receiving a competitive level of income.

Various press coverage over the last 10 years has tarnished the image of traditional with-profits products. However, many of the issues aren’t relevant for with-profits annuities. For example, a with-profits annuity will never be subject to a Market Value Reduction, nor will there be a possibility of not achieving a projected maturity value. Our Pension Income Plus Annuity also comes with both a starting income guarantee and a minimum income guarantee, so you know you can give your clients equity exposure with a safety net.

Past performance - future prospects

LV=‘s With Profits Fund has outperformed all of the with-profit annuity competitors with profits funds in the last 2 years.

We’ve also out-performed the FTSE 100 in 5 of the last 6 years.

Please remember that past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.All figures shown are gross and don't take account of charges which will reduce the performance figures shown.For LV= the performance is of our main with profits fund that our PIPA product invests in. It is not the performance of our PIPA product, which was only launched in September 2011.Sources: Figures are taken from 2006-2011 Prudential, Aviva and Legal & General with-profits annual announcements.FTSE figures are taken from swanlowpark.co.uk/ftse0604.jsp.

Past performance - future prospects

The examples below show the actual income paid from our With-Profits Pension Annuity product series over a 3

and 5 year period. These figures include smoothing and charges relevant to each series of the product but do not

include mutual bonus.

3 Year Example:- If your client started a With Profits Pension Annuity policy with a 4% ABR with LV=

on 01/04/2009 and received a starting income of £10,000, 3 years later they would be receiving an income of £11,767.

- But if they had started an Income Choice Annuity with Prudential with a 4% Required Smoothed Return on the same date, 3 years later the income they would be receiving would have been only £11,260.

5 Year Example:- If your client started a With Profits Pension Annuity policy with a 4% ABR with LV=

on 01/04/2007 and received a starting income of £10,000, 5 years later they would be receiving an income of £9,678.

- But if they had started a With Profits Pension Annuity with a 4% ABR with Prudential on the same date, 5 years later the income they would be receiving would have been only £9,255.

Declared Investment Returns

PIPA has a simple single bonus structure. We will declare an annual investment return every quarter and the customer will receive the annual return declared in the quarter immediately prior to their policy anniversary. We call these Declared Investment Returns (DIR).

When we declare an investment return, it is applied to the customer’s policy for the coming year

- If the DIR is the same as the Assumed Investment Return (AIR), the customers income will stay the same.

- If the DIR is higher, income will rise- If the DIR is lower, income will fall (but never lower than the Guaranteed Minimum

Income Level)

Each DIR that increases the annuity beyond its highest previous level will generate an increase of 50% of that percentage increase to the Guaranteed Minimum Income (GMI)

GMI starts at 100% of the starting income level of a 0% AIR for all customers

Declared Investment Returns

Example:

This example shows how your client’s income could change given example DIRs.It assumes a starting income of £10,609, an AIR of 3% and DIRs of 4% in year 1, 2% in year 2 and -1% in year 3

10

Guaranteed Minimum Income

Example:

Assumes a starting income of £12,000, GMI of £10,000 and income for the first 5 years of:- Year 1 £12,000 Year 4 £12,450- Year 2 £12,480 Year 5 £12,470- Year 3 £12,480 Year 6 £12,604

GMI is calculated as follows:- Year 1 Starts at £10,000 £10,000- Year 2 As income has increased, GMI also increases:

£12,480 (new income) - £12,000 (income in year 1) = £480£480 / £12,000 x 100% = 4%GMI increases at 50% of 4% = 2%£10,000 x 2% = £200 so the GMI is now £10,200. £10,200

- Year 3 No increase = no GMI increase. £10,200- Year 4 No increase = no GMI increase. £10,200- Year 5 Income up but not higher than £12,480 = no GMI increase.

£10,200- Year 6 Income up and is higher than £12,480 = GMI increases

£12,604.80 (new income) - £12,480 (highest previous level) = £124.80£124.80 / £12,480 x 100% = 1%GMI increases at 50% of 1% = 0.5%£10,200 x 0.5% = £51 so the GMI is now £10,251£10,251

This graph illustrates income available from PIPA, an RPI linked annuity and a level annuity as well as average life expectancyThis example is based on a male aged 60 with inflation at 3% per annum, 2% AIR and Declared Investment Returns of 4.5% per annumAlthough income starts slightly lower than the level income, it is higher than the RPI-linked option and rises above the level line relatively quickly, giving significantly more income by the average life expectancy lineFor those clients who can’t afford to reduce starting income, you can consider using part of their fundto buy level income and part to invest, giving both increased starting income andmaintaining some protection against inflation

Case Study

13

Mr Jacobs

Mr Jacobs is 70. When he retired at 65, he wanted to receive an income, whilst keeping his options open without committing to a lifetime annuity. At the time, he was in good health and he chose to go into drawdown pension.

Now that Mr Jacobs has turned 70, he’s ready to buy to a lifetime annuity. Last year he suffered a minor heart attack. This means that he now qualifies for an Enhanced Annuity with LV=.

Mr Jacobs has a balanced attitude to risk. He wants to use over half of his £95,000 fund to generate a secure income that will be guaranteed for the whole of his life. However, he’s also willing to use some of the fund to have some exposure to equities which may provide a higher income if the equities perform well.

His financial adviser has recommended that he uses £65,000 to buy an Enhanced Annuity with LV= to provide the guaranteed income and the remaining £30,000 to buy a Pension Income Plus Annuity from LV=.

Using our Pension Income Plus Annuity, Mr Jacobs’ pension fund is invested in the LV= with-profits fund which aims to increase his future income by applying investment returns. He chooses a 2% Assumed Investment Return (AIR). This means that if we declare an investment return of 2% in the following years, his income will remain the same. If our declared investment return is more than 2%, his income will increase accordingly.

14

Mr Jacobs

On the downside, if the declared investment return is lower than 2%, Mr Jacobs would suffer a drop in income. However, to protect against this, the Pension Income Plus Annuity provides Mr Jacobs with a guaranteed minimum income which pays a minimum income that he can depend on for the rest of his life. This means his income will never be lower than the starting income he’d have received if he’d chosen a 0% AIR. We also guarantee that Mr Jacob’s income will not fall at all within the first 2 years, although he’ll still receive an increase in the second year if the investment return we declare is more than 2%.

His annuities will provide a higher income each year than they would have done if he’d bought annuities at age 65, as he now qualifies for enhanced terms due to his deteriorated health and he’s now 5 years older. As a proportion of his income is linked to investment returns, he should benefit from more protection against inflation than if all of his money was used to buy a level annuity where the guaranteed income stays the same each year.
