D6    Investments in subsidiary undertakings, joint ventures and associates

D6.1  Basis of consolidation

The Group consolidates those investees it is deemed to control. The Group has control over an investee if all three of the following are met:

It has power over an investee;

It is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and

It has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect its own returns.

(a)    Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are those investees that the Group controls. The majority of the Group’s subsidiaries are corporate entities.

The Group performs a reassessment of consolidation whenever there is a change in the substance of the relationship between the Group and an investee. Where the Group is deemed to control an entity, it is treated as a subsidiary and its results, assets and liabilities are consolidated. Where the Group holds a minority share in an entity with no control over the entity, the investments are carried at fair value within financial investments in the Consolidated statement of financial position.

Entities consolidated by the Group include qualifying partnerships as defined under the UK Partnerships (Accounts) Regulations 2008 (the ‘Partnerships Act’). The Group’s limited partnership has taken advantage of the exemption under regulation 7 of the Partnerships Act from the financial statement requirements. This is under regulations 4 to 6 of the Partnership Act, on the basis that the limited partnership is consolidated in these financial statements.

(b)    Joint ventures and associates

Joint ventures are joint arrangements arising from a contractual agreement whereby the Group and other investors have joint control of the net assets of the arrangement. In a number of these arrangements, the Group’s share of the underlying net assets may be less than 50 per cent but the terms of the relevant agreement make it clear that control is jointly exercised between the Group and the third party. Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence but does not control. Generally, it is presumed that the Group has significant influence if it holds between 20 per cent and 50 per cent voting rights of an entity.

With the exception of those referred to below, the Group accounts for its investments in joint ventures and associates using the equity method of accounting. The Group’s share of profit or loss of its joint ventures and associates is recognised in the income statement and its share of movements in other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income. The equity method of accounting does not apply to investments in joint ventures and associates held by the Group’s insurance or investment funds, including collective investment schemes which, as allowed by IAS 28 ‘Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures’, are carried at FVTPL.

(c)    Structured entities

Structured entities are those that have been designed so that voting or similar rights are not the dominant factor in deciding who controls the entity. Voting rights relate to administrative tasks. Relevant activities are directed by means of contractual arrangements. The Group invests in both consolidated and unconsolidated structured entities including investment vehicles such as collective investment schemes, collateralised debt obligations, mortgage-backed securities and similar asset-backed securities.

Collective investment schemes

The Group invests in collective investment schemes, that invest mainly in equities, bonds, cash and cash equivalents and properties. In assessing control under IFRS 10 ‘Consolidated Financial Statements’, the Group determines whether it is acting as principal or agent and the variable returns from its involvement with these entities. The Group’s percentage ownership in these entities can fluctuate on a daily basis according to the participation of the Group and other investors.

Where the entity is managed by a Group asset manager:

Where the Group’s ownership holding in the entity exceeds 50 per cent, the Group is judged to have control over the entity;

Where the Group’s ownership holding in the entity is between 20 per cent and 50 per cent, the facts and circumstances of the Group’s involvement in the entity are considered, including the rights to any fees earned by the asset manager, in forming a judgement as to whether the Group has control over the entity; and

Where the Group’s ownership holding in the entity is less than 20 per cent, the Group is judged to not have control over the entity.

Where the entity is managed by an asset manager outside the Group, an assessment is made of whether the Group has existing rights that gives it the ability to direct the current activities of the entity and therefore control the entity. In assessing the Group’s ability to direct an entity, the Group considers its ability relative to other investors.

Where the Group is deemed to control an entity, it is treated as a subsidiary and is consolidated, with the interests of investors other than the Group being classified as liabilities, and presented within ‘Net asset value attributable to unit holders of consolidated investment funds’.

Where the Group does not control these entities (where the Group is deemed to be acting as an agent under IFRS 10) and they do not meet the definition of associates, they are carried at FVTPL within financial investments in the Consolidated statement of financial position.

Where the Group’s asset manager sets up investment funds as part of its asset management operations, unless the Group also participates in the ownership holding of the entities, the Group’s interest is limited to the fees charged to manage the assets of such entities. With no participation in ownership holding of these entities, the Group does not retain risks associated with investment funds. For these investment funds, the Group is not deemed to control the entities but deemed to be acting as an agent.

The Group generates returns and retains the ownership risks in these investment vehicles commensurate to its participation and does not have any further exposure to the residual risks of these investment vehicles.

Other structured entities

The Group holds investments in mortgage-backed securities, collateralised debt obligations and similar asset-backed securities, the majority of which are actively traded in a liquid market.

The Group consolidates the vehicles that hold the investments where the Group is deemed to control the vehicles. When assessing control over the vehicles, the factors considered include the purpose and design of the vehicle, the Group’s exposure to the variability of returns and the scope of the Group’s ability to direct the relevant activities of the vehicle including any kick-out or removal rights that are held by third parties. The outcome of the control assessment is dependent on the terms and conditions of the respective individual arrangements.

The majority of such vehicles are not consolidated. In these cases, the Group is not the sponsor of the vehicles in which it holds investments and has no administrative rights over the vehicles’ activities. The Group generates returns and retains the ownership risks commensurate to its holding and its exposure to the investments and does not have any further exposure to the residual risks or losses of the investments or the vehicles in which it holds investments. Accordingly, the Group does not have power over the relevant activities of such vehicles and all are carried at FVTPL within financial investments in the Consolidated statement of financial position.

The table below provides aggregate carrying amounts of the investments in unconsolidated structured entities reported in the Group’s Consolidated statement of financial position:

The Group's maximum exposure to loss related to the interest in unconsolidated structured entities is limited to the carrying value in the Consolidated statement of financial position and the unfunded investment commitments provided by the Group (see note D5).

During the year, the Group receives dividend and interest income from its investments in these unconsolidated structured entities. Where the Group’s asset manager manages these entities, such as the collective investment schemes, the Group also receives asset management fees from these entities.

As at 31 December 2024 and 2023, the Group does not have an agreement, contractual or otherwise, or intention to provide financial support to structured entities (both consolidated and unconsolidated) that could expose the Group to a loss.

D6.2 Dividend restrictions and minimum capital requirements

Certain Group entities are subject to restrictions on the amounts of funds they may transfer in the form of cash dividends or otherwise to the parent company.

Under UK company law, UK companies can only declare dividends if they have sufficient distributable reserves.

The Group’s subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates may remit dividends to the Group, in general, provided the statutory insurance fund meets the capital adequacy standard required under local statutory regulations and has sufficient distributable reserves. Further details on local capital regulations in certain Asia operations are provided in note C9.2.

D6.3 Investments in joint ventures and associates

Joint ventures represent arrangements where the controlling parties through contractual or other agreement have the rights to the net assets of the arrangements. The Group has insurance and asset management joint ventures in Mainland China with CITIC Group and an asset management joint venture in India with ICICI Bank. In addition, there is an asset management joint venture in Hong Kong with Bank of China International Holdings Limited (BOCI) and Takaful insurance joint venture in Malaysia. For the Group’s joint ventures that are accounted for using the equity method, the net-of-tax results of these operations are included in the Group’s profit before tax.

The Group’s associates, which are also accounted for using the equity method, include the Indian insurance entity (with the majority shareholder being ICICI Bank).

In addition, the Group has investments in collective investment schemes, funds holding collateralised debt obligations and property funds where the Group has significant influence. As allowed under IAS 28, these investments are accounted for on a FVTPL basis. The aggregate fair value of associates accounted for at FVTPL, where there are published price quotations, is approximately $0.6 billion at 31 December 2024 (31 December 2023: $0.5 billion).

For joint ventures and associates accounted for using the equity method, the 12 - month financial information of these investments for the years ended 31 December 2024 and 2023 (covering the same period as that of the Group) has been used in these consolidated financial statements.

The Group’s share of the profit for shareholder-backed business (including short-term interest rate and other market fluctuations), net of related tax, in joint ventures and associates that are equity accounted for as shown in the Consolidated income statement, is allocated across segments as follows:

Note

For growth markets and other, as well as the segment results for associates and joint ventures within the segment, the amount shown includes a charge of $(44) million (2023: $191 million; 2022: $72 million credit) of taxes for all life joint ventures and associates.

There is no other comprehensive income in the joint ventures and associates other than the foreign exchange differences that arise from translating the associates and joint ventures into the Group's presentation currency. There has been no unrecognised share of losses of a joint venture or associate that the Group has stopped recognising in total comprehensive income.

The Group’s interest in joint ventures and associates gives rise to no contingent liabilities or capital commitments that are material to the Group.
