Prudential is committed to helping safeguard and promote the financial well-being of our customers, with a focus on saving for retirement and providing security in retirement.

4 Prudential's Portfolio Management Group Ltd (PMG) PMG manage a range of funds for Prudential and Prudential International. Whilst their job is to focus on providing asset allocation expertise, in practice their remit is far wider. Who are PMG? > The in-house investment strategists and manager of managers for the Prudential Group in the UK. > They are independent of the various underlying asset management businesses within the Prudential Group. > A team of over 30 economists, investment strategists, analysts and mathematicians who are specialists in different areas of the investment world. > PMG control 150 billion of Prudential's investments as at December > The Prudential group has over 500 investment professionals around the world, investing in excess of 443 billion as at December > They manage our AA rated Prudential With-Profits Fund which is one of the largest and financially strongest With-Profits funds in the UK and has funds under management of 72.2bn as at 31 December You can get more information on PMG in the document Prudential s Portfolio Management Group (INVP11431). Multi-asset funds have been available and popular with both adviser and their clients for years. In the modern market, with changing regulatory guidance and the Retail Distribution Review, multi-asset funds offer the chance to outsource time consuming and costly asset allocation and stock selection work that may simply not be cost efficient for you to carry out for all your clients. This can then allow you to focus on the areas of business where most value can be added such as understanding and supporting the needs of existing and new clients. PMG believe in the importance of asset allocation and the key role that multi-asset funds could provide as an investment solution for many investors. Indeed, academic research has suggested that as much as 90% of investors return could be attributable to asset allocation rather than other factors, such as stock selection or timing. PMG also believe that asset allocation is a specialist skill which should, to avoid conflicts of interest, exist separately from the other investment activities in any fund. PMG approach PMG manage our multi-asset funds by adopting a team based approach to reach a consensus house view. They then aim to implement that view as consistently as possible whilst working within the specific requirements that are applicable to different funds for example, appropriate solvency management or staying within agreed risk parameters. What PMG multi-asset funds can provide? Diversification Asset allocation expertise Governance Risk managed solutions Asset-liability management Additional product features What benefits these can offer you and your clients? The benefit of spreading risk through a range of assets can be a fundamental investment starting point for many. As a global company we offer expertise in investing in assets around the world. Our specialist and dedicated asset allocation knowledge can offer the solution for you to outsource this time consuming and resource heavy work. A key focus for the regulator. Having the time to review and understand each part of the investment management process, on a regular and comprehensive basis for funds that invest globally, can be very difficult. We offer funds that include governance controls from either internal, or independent third party, experts. Working within risk targets, for example with our range of Dynamic Portfolios, and then aiming to maximise potential return within those parameters, means a fund manager does not chase performance and provides funds that stay true to their original risk profile. Funds, such as With-Profits, come with controls and independent reviews in respect of their financial strength and how liabilities are managed. The fund manager can then work within these parameters, whilst the investor knows these are being monitored for them. Not all clients are the same, and a range of choices (such as smoothing mechanisms, guarantees and other product features) gives more choice in meeting different clients needs. 4
5 Prudential International Prudential International benefits from the financial and investment strength provided by the Prudential Group and provides financial solutions to customers who want to combine the benefits of investing in an offshore environment with the reassurance of a name they can trust. Solvency matters. Here s how we stack up: 38.5 million million Required solvency margin of capital: 150% Actual available as a percentage of required: 350% Source: Prudential International, 31 December 2013 Our Dublin base a further safeguard Dublin is a location with a strict legal and regulatory environment. The company is subject to European Law, having to comply with all European directives and regulations and to meet European solvency margins. As part of the Prudential Group, we have additional group standards to comply with over and above Irish requirements. In respect of the capital position of the company, the solvency regime in Ireland requires an insurance company to maintain a solvency margin of at least 150%. We ve consistently maintained a level over and above this 150% requirement in the last five years. As an EU domiciled insurance company we comply with the requirements of EU law which is transposed into Irish law. In addition, the Central Bank of Ireland has implemented a corporate governance code for insurance companies which enhances the arrangements that an insurance company must have in place. We operate a robust arrangement in respect of corporate governance to meet this requirement. These are stringent regulations and should provide comfort in the professional nature of Dublin-based insurers despite the current economic challenges Ireland is facing. For more information please refer to the AILO** investor protection guide, A guide to offshore bonds and policyholder protection for professional advisers and A summary of the life insurance policyholder protection measures in Guernsey, the Isle of Man, Ireland, Luxembourg and UK for professional advisers. These can be found at What sets Prudential International apart? We believe Prudential International's close links with Prudential Assurance Company (PAC) Ltd, sets them apart from the rest. Prudential International offer With-Profits exposure through their Prudential Assurance Company (PAC) With-Profits Funds. Investments into Prudential International's PAC With-Profits Funds are fully reassured into the Defined Charge Participating Sub-Fund within the long term fund of the Prudential Assurance Company Limited. This With-Profits proposition is backed by the multi-asset expertise of Prudential s Portfolio Management Group (PMG). Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) Policyholders taking out an offshore bond in the UK from an FCA authorised Irish life company are believed to be covered by the UK Financial Services Compensation Scheme, (provided that the policyholder was habitually UK resident when the bond was taken out and this occurred on or after the 1 December 2001). More information about the FSCS can be found on page 8. **Prudential International is a member of the Association of International Life Offices (AILO). This is trade organisation of international life assurance companies which aims to encourage professionalism and high standards amongst its members through the provision of market, regulatory and tax information and liaison with regulators and local trade associations. 5

8 The Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) Prudential Assurance Company Limited and other UK authorised and regulated firms in the Prudential Group are covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme. This provides a level of comfort in the event that Prudential is unable to meet its financial obligations. The Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) is a safety net for customers of authorised financial services firms. The FSCS is the UK's compensation fund of last resort for customers. It's an independent body, set up under the Financial Services & Markets Act 2000 (FSMA). It may pay compensation if a firm is unable, or likely to be unable, to pay claims made against it. Claims usually arise because the firm has stopped trading or has been declared in default. Are there limits to the compensation payable by the FSCS? Yes. The FSCS operates different levels of compensation. The scope and amount of cover available depends on the type of policy or product involved and the funds selected. > For long-term insurance (e.g. pensions, annuities and life assurance including investment bonds and endowments): 90% of the claim with no upper limit for the claim amount. > For investments (ISAs, Unit Trusts) 50,000 per person, per firm in default. 100% of the first 50,000 then 0% above 50,000. > For home Finance (e.g. Mortgage advice and arranging) 50,000 per person, per firm in default. 100% of the first 50,000 then 0% above 50,000. > For deposits 85,000 per person, per firm in default. It's important to note that the FSCS will not apply for any Prudential International Bonds sold outside the UK. How is the value of an annuity policy calculated? Ultimately, the value of an annuity policy would be determined by the Court on a basis to be decided by the Court at that time.the court might reasonably be expected to consider the present discounted value of future annuity payments and the cost of buying a replacement policy. Where else can I find information? The Terms & Conditions for your policy or investment may have more information on limits in the scope of FSCS cover for your policy. More information is available from the FSCS at: Financial Services Compensation Scheme 10th Floor, Beaufort House 15 St Botolph Street London EC3A 7QU Telephone: or Website: GENM /2014
