This icon indicates information that can be accessed on the referenced website. ABOUT THE ARTIST MANDY COPPES-MARTIN Mandy works with specific fibres, threads and silks – which are woven and which weave through her drawings and sculptures – to take the viewer on a journey through traces of the past. “I am interested in working with notions of memory and the traces of life that exist beyond our stories. I began working with tree rings several years ago as I find them to be the most beautiful arrangements of natural life. Tree rings tell a story of events through mark making. They offer glimpses into the lost or forgotten stories of our natural environment.” She applies the traditional art of crocheting to paper thread and raw silk fibres to create forms and shapes that depict a life once lived, or an action once taken. Whether the resulting image is a depiction of an abstract mark of nature or an interpretation of a literal object, her art seeks to retrace the past and, in turn, create a new skeleton of memories.

The Group nonetheless delivered a robust operational performance with strong actuarial experience and growth. The growing relevance of its Vitality Shared-value Insurance model, given the increasing importance of health, wellness and resilience, positions the Group for growth in local and global markets. RESILIENT OPERATING PERFORMANCE DURING COVID-19 Normalised profit from operations increased 7% to R6 494 million, notwithstanding a R2.4 billion COVID-19-related impact for Discovery Life (R1.1 billion in prior year). New business annualised premium income (API) increased 11% to R21 325 million (core API 9%), while retention levels across the Group were strong. Normalised headline earnings (NHE) decreased by 9% to R3 406 million. This growth was impacted by R389 million pre-tax mark-to-market foreign currency losses (R578 million pre-tax gains in prior year) arising from a recovery of the rand during the year under review.

This led to the imposition of further lockdown measures in order to slow down the spread of the disease and ease pressure on the healthcare system. All this has had a devastating effect on millions of South Africans with lives and livelihoods being lost, household finances decimated and many going hungry in large parts of the country. The pandemic has lead to the worst unemployment crisis in modern time and consequently, as lives are inevitably linked to livelihoods, a humanitarian disaster. Managing within this crisis continues to be Remgro and its investee companies’ single biggest priority. Remgro’s focus is on the factors within its control, the health and well-being of its people, ensuring that its investments have the most robust financial positions to support business continuity and ensuring that the underlying investee companies that are in a position to offer help to the country, are empowered to do so.

    Discovery Limited (Registration number 1999/007789/06) (Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa) Ordinary share code: DSY ISIN: ZAE000022331 (“Discovery” or “the Company”) Voluntary announcement: Discovery and John Hancock announce strategic partnership A new approach to Life Insurance in the U.S. that rewards healthy living Discovery and John Hancock Insurance (“John Hancock”) have entered into a strategic partnership which will see the introduction of a comprehensive healthy living program for U.S. consumers. John Hancock, a division of the global financial services group Manulife, is one of the largest life insurers in the United States. Adrian Gore, Chief Executive of Discovery says, “Discovery and John Hancock share a commitment to improving the lives of our customers and, with more than 150 years of experience and a history of innovation, John Hancock is the perfect partner to help expand the solution that’s at the centre of Discovery’s shared-value insurance model in the US.” Craig Bromley, President of John Hancock Financial Services comments: “We are reinventing the consumer life insurance experience and changing the way people think about this critical component of their overall financial health. We believe this offering will make life insurance relevant for new generations of consumers and reinvigorate the entire category.” Discovery’s shared-value insurance model is based on the combination of engaging policyholders and incentivising them to manage their health, and dynamically pricing their behaviour into the cost of insurance. The model leverages insights from behavioural economics in an immediate rewards system that drives positive behaviour change over the long term.
