The inflation rate is derived using a similar cash flow matched methodology as used for the discount rate but having regard to the difference between yields on fixed-interest and index-linked United Kingdom government gilts. The expected return on assets assumption is set having regard to the asset allocation and expected return on each asset class as at the balance sheet date.



	2019	2018
Other principal actuarial assumptions:	Years	Years
Life expectancy of male / female in the U.K. aged 65 at accounting date	21.5 / 24.2	21.4 / 24.1
Life expectancy of male / female in the U.K. aged 65 at 20 years after accounting date	22.8 / 25.7	22.8 / 25.7
