6 pg 6 Scottish Widows 5.5% 2023 Background of the opportunity Investors like the credit risk and return offered by the Scottish Widows 5.5% 2023 bonds, but are worried about the expectations of rates rising over the tenor and/or inflation eroding their capital and income The Scottish Widows 5.5% 2023 fixed rate bond Issued in April 2013 to cancel the funding from its parent Lloyds, hence externalising internal funding. The book was 4.5x oversubscribed, reflecting strong investor demand. This has resulted in a low allocation of bonds for most investors and fair support in the secondary market. These bonds are unsecured subordinated Tier 2, not Coco s (contingent convertible) and have no specific capital ratio trigger event. Scottish Widows have the option to call the bond at par or vary the terms of the notes if, due to changes in regulation, the bonds don t qualify as Dated Tier 2 Securities anymore. Deferral of the coupon payment and redemption, subject to Solvency 2 Capital Requirements. Scottish Widows have no senior unsecured bonds in the market. The only other bond in issuance is a single junior subordinated bond which sits below the Scottish Widows 5.5% 2023 Fixed Rate Bond Scottish Widows 5.5% 2023 Coupon 5.5% annual payment Maturity date 16 June 2023 Format Subordinated, Tier 2 Credit rating Issue size 850m BBB+ / BBB+ / Baa2 Denominations 100,000 / 1,000 Regulatory par call Principal and interest deferral option Applicable Applicable Current price Current YTM 5.92% Investec new offering Investec is issuing an RPI linked note and a floating rate note secured by the Scottish Widows fixed rate bond. This bond offers investors the opportunity to buy a new bond in 1,000 denominations at par, RPI index linked and/or floating rate with exposure to the Scottish Widows 5.5% 2023 bond (sole credit risk). The Impala bond benefits from the same liquidity as the fixed rate bond, is listed on the LSE, quoted intra-day and priced on Bloomberg and SEAQ (LSE).
