Reinsurance cover protected primary insurers. South Africa Insurance | Credit Overview – Higher economic and country risks constrain the sector ratings. For example, we took rating actions on insurers after downgrading South Africa in April 2020. – Insurers’ investment portfolios have an average credit quality within our 'BB' range because of concentrations in bank deposits in local banks and local currency sovereign bonds. – If economic conditions fail to recover, broader growth will suffer. This would increase the pressure on earnings.

The government has focused on managing the spread of the virus; it has yet to finish formulating its vaccination plans. − Signs of recovery emerged in third-quarter 2020 and we expect a moderate rebound in 2021, sufficient to support slow fiscal consolidation in 2021-2023. − Real GDP will return to pre-pandemic levels only in 2023 and we expect longer-term structural growth challenges.

That said, few of these countries had managed to force new daily cases much below their all-time highs.

Insurers’ asset management activities bring in lower investment income and therefore fewer related investment fees. – There has been an uptick in policy lapses as economic pressures affect persistency. In addition, higher one-off remote working costs inhibited new business margins in 2020. – Many life players are setting aside reserves or other provisions against the risk of excess mortality and morbidity losses. If new variants trigger a new wave of cases, additional provisions may be needed in 2021.

  • Old Mutual Limited - Climate Change 2020
    Old Mutual Limited - Climate Change 2020 C0. Introduction C0.1 CDP Page 1 of 53 (C0.1) Give a general description and introduction to your organization. Old Mutual was started in Africa in 1845, and rapidly developed into a recognised brand across much of Southern Africa. Over the years our business expanded internationally and in 1999 we listed on the London Stock Exchange. In March 2016, it was decided that the best way forward for the Old Mutual Group was to separate its four strong businesses into independent, standalone companies. The foremost aim of this strategy – called Managed Separation – has been to unlock and create value for shareholders. In short, it became clear that the Group’s complex structure and the high running costs of operating in diverse geographies and regulatory environments actually locked in value. To unlock that value, a Managed Separation of the four underlying businesses – Old Mutual Emerging Markets, Nedbank, UK based Old Mutual Wealth and US based Old Mutual Asset Management – was necessary. As part of that Managed Separation, it was agreed that Old Mutual Emerging Markets (OMEM) would strengthen its focus on Africa and move its primary listing to Africa. As Old Mutual Limited, our primary listing is now on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. We also have a standard listing on the London Stock Exchange and secondary listings on three other stock exchanges in Africa: Namibia, Malawi and Zimbabwe. The growth opportunities in Africa are enormous and exciting – and we are well positioned to make the most of those opportunities, while contributing significantly to the socio-economic progress of the communities we operate in.
