Notes
(i) | Of the total level 2 debt securities of $17,620 million at 31 December 2024 (31 December 2023: $19,020 million), $12 million (31 December 2023: $10 million) are valued internally.
(ii) | For Investment contract liabilities without DPF, it is assumed that these investment contracts are not quoted in an active market and do not have readily available published prices and that their fair values are determined using valuation techniques. It is assumed that all significant inputs used in the valuation are observable and these investment contract liabilities are classified in level 2.
(iii) | At 31 December 2024, the Group held $3,154 million (31 December 2023: $2,904 million) of net financial instruments at fair value within level 3. This represents 2 per cent (31 December 2023: 2 per cent) of the total fair valued financial assets, net of financial liabilities and comprises the following:
| – | Equity securities and holdings in collective investment schemes of $3,116 million (31 December 2023: $2,863 million) consisting primarily of property, infrastructure, private credit and private equity funds held by the participating funds, which are externally valued using the net asset value of the invested entities. Equity securities of $1 million (31 December 2023: $1 million ) are internally valued, representing less than 0.1 per cent of the total fair valued financial assets, net of financial liabilities. Internal valuations are inherently more subjective than external valuations; and
| – | Other sundry individual financial instruments of a net asset of $37 million(31 December 2023: $40 million).
| – | Of the net financial instruments of $3,154 million (31 December 2023: $2,904 million) referred to above:
| – | A net asset of $3,088 million (31 December 2023: $2,866 million) is held by the Group’s participating and unit-linked funds and therefore shareholders’ profit and equity are not immediately impacted by movements in the valuation of these financial instruments; and
| – | The remaining level 3 investments comprise a net asset of $66 million (31 December 2023: $38 million) and are primarily investments valued using external prices adjusted to reflect the specific known conditions relating to these holdings where applicable (eg distressed securities). If the value of all these level 3 financial instruments decreased by 10 per cent, the change in valuation would be $(7) million (31 December 2023: $(4) million), which would reduce shareholders’ equity by this amount before tax.
