This is an increase of 6%. Money invested in insurer-administered individual pensions increased from 510bn in 2011 to 550bn in 2012, an 8% increase. Money invested in self-administered pensions not administered by insurers was 1,335bn in 2012, a 9% increase from 1,230bn in 2011 Funds held in insurer-administered life remained unchanged at 150bn. Introduction This bulletin provides estimates for the amounts of money held in insurance companyadministered life funds, occupational and individual pension funds, and self-administered pensions not administered by insurers. The statistical information included in this report is ascertained from data provided by insurance companies to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Office for National Statistics (ONS). The ABI ensures that the statistics used in this report are consistent year-on-year; however, there may be some differences due to changes in these data sources. All figures and growth rates used in this bulletin are in real prices. The total amounts of money held in insurer-administered pension funds, alongside money invested in life funds and pensions that are not administered by the insurance industry are illustrated in Table 1 below. In 2012, the total amount held in all life and pension funds increased from 2,560bn in 2011, an increase of 7% to 2,735bn.

The total of all insurer-administered funds in the above table will not equal the table for total invested assets published separately by the ABI because the former includes funds held in all FSA authorised life and pension funds and excludes overseas business. 1
2 Funds invested in pensions In 2012, total amount of money invested in all pension funds was 2,405bn, an 8% increase from 2,230bn in This accounts for 88% of the total funds in 2012, compared to 75% of the total in Self-administered pensions accounted for 49% of total funds in 2012, compared to 53% in In contrast, funds held in insureradministered pensions have risen from 21% to 39% of the total funds held over the same period. Figure 1 shows that funds held in insurer-administered occupational pension schemes increased to their highest recorded level in 2012, while money held in insureradministered individual pensions schemes also grew for the second consecutive year. Figure 1 Funds held in pension schemes in real terms, bn, ABI Calculations, ONS, Standard & Poor s Insurer-administered pension funds Funds held in insurer-administered occupational pension schemes rose by 6% from 490bn in 2011 to 520bn in Funds invested within this category relate to trustbased pension schemes such as insurer-administered Defined Benefit schemes, Executive Pension Plans and some Defined Contribution schemes. The total money invested in insurer-administered individual pension schemes increased by 8% to 550bn compared with 2011, a second consecutive year of increase. This will include money held in contract-based pension schemes such as Personal Pensions, Group Personal Pensions and Stakeholder Pensions. Figure 2 demonstrates that the total investment in insurance company-administered pension schemes as a percentage of total pension funds was five percentage points higher than the long-run average in 2012, at 44%. This compares to just 28% in

Figure 3 Investment breakdown for insurer-administered pension funds, ABI Calculations, Standard & Poor s 3
4 A large proportion of insurer-administered pension funds are invested in linked-based products, although all investments have a tendency to follow the movement in equity markets. The equity market turbulence experienced in 2008/09 had an effect on the total funds held in insurer-administered pensions. However, figure 4 shows that while the FTSE All Share Index continued to rise in 2012, this was matched by the rise in insurer-administered pension funds.

8 Appendix 2 Glossary of terms Insurer-administered individual pensions are contract-based pension schemes such as Personal Pensions, Group Personal Pensions, Stakeholder Pensions and Pension Annuities. These policies can be arranged by an individual or through an employer, but in all cases the insurer and policyholder have a direct contractual relationship. Insureradministered SIPPs will be included in this category. Insurer-administered life includes any life insurance policy which pays out a predetermined sum insured in the event of the policyholder s death. This includes general annuity contracts, term insurance, whole life and endowment policies which also pay out when the policy matures. Insurer-administered occupational pensions are trust-based pension schemes arranged with an insurance company by an employer. These will include insurer-administered Defined Benefit schemes, Executive Pension Plans and some Defined Contribution schemes. Insurance company-administered other business includes any insurer-administered funds that are not categorised as life or pension business. This includes life insurance companies reserves but excludes overseas business. Linked funds are investments where the value of the benefit is not fixed but ascertainable to a formula or by reference to the value of units in a fund. This includes money held in property and unit-linked funds. Non-profit funds include any policies where investment return is not linked to the performance of units or a company s investments. They are typically policies where investment return is paid in accordance with a guaranteed rate of interest. Self-administered pensions not administered by insurers include any fund invested in a pension not administered by the insurance industry. This includes Defined Benefit schemes and SIPPs not administered by insurers. With-profit funds are policies that receive their investment income as a bonus paid out of the total income earned by the insurance company on pooled funds. These funds are designed to provide savers with access to stock market investment at lower risk with returns smoothed to reduce the volatility of investments. This includes money held in conventional and unitised with-profit funds. 8
