    Aegon investeerde miljoenen in Duits windpark

    Gepubliceerd op 4 jan 2016 om 11:41

    AMSTERDAM (AFN) - Aegon investeerde via Aegon Asset Management 45 miljoen euro in een Duits windpark op zee. Dat maakte de verzekeraar maandag bekend. De investering past in de doelstelling van Aegon om te investeren in een koolstofarme toekomst van de energie.

    Het windpark Meerwind in het Duitse gedeelte van de Noordzee bestaat uit tachtig windturbines en is sinds januari 2015 operationeel. Naast de duurzame opdracht, denkt Aegon ook dat de investering op korte termijn een aantrekkelijk rendement zal opleveren.

    Naast Aegon maakte ook La Banque Postale Asset Management deel uit van de joint venture. De Fransen droegen in totaal 25 miljoen euro bij.

    L&G eyes deal for Aegon's £9bn annuity arm

    L&G eyes deal for Aegon's £9bn annuity arm
    Legal & General (L&G) is interested in buying Aegon’s £9 billion UK annuity business.

    In September 2015 New Model Adviser® revealed Aegon was weighing the sale of its £9 billion annuity business as part of a review into its UK operations.

    L&G is one of the companies interested in buying the business alongside specialist pension insurer Rothesay Life, according to International Business Times.

    Aegon’s life sales have slumped since chancellor George Osborne announced the pension freedoms in March 2014.

    In November 2015, Aegon reported life a 30% decline in new life sales between 1 July and 30 September 2015 to £139 million. In its half year results in 2015 it reported a 16% fall in life sales from, £278 million in 2014 to £190 million. The company said the fall was due to a decline in annuity sales.

    A spokesman for Aegon said the company was continuing to review its annuity business but was not yet able to provide an update on the review.

    ‘In September 2015 we confirmed we’d initiated a review of our UK annuity portfolio. This process continues and we will update the market in due course,’ he said.

    L&G has targeted bulk annuity deals following the pension reforms. In October 2015, it secured its first US deal with electronics company Philips.

    Rothesay Life has also purchased an annuity book last year. In May 2015, it acquired 28,000 UK annuity policies worth £1.2 billion from Zurich.

    L&G has also confirmed it has sold it its French business to Apicil Prévoyance.

    The life company is also looking to sell its Netherlands-based business following the introduction of tougher solvency rules for insurance companies in the EU, according to the Telegraph.

    L&G touted as buyer of Aegon annuity book
    Legal & General is rumoured to be interested in buying Aegon UK’s annuity business.

    Last year Aegon said it was reviewing its annuity portfolio as part of a wider look at its business.

    In November Aegon revealed total new life sales were down 30 per cent to £139m, primarily due to lower demand for traditional pension products.

    Rothesay Life, which purchased Zurich’s legacy UK annuity business in May, has also been touted as a possible buyer for Aegon’s portfolio.

    Neither L&G nor Rothesay Life has commented on the rumours so far.

    An Aegon spokesman said: “In September we confirmed we’d initiated a review of our UK annuity portfolio. This process continues and we will update the market in due course.”

    Despite the review of Aegon’s businesses, chief executive Adrian Grace has said the Dutch-owned company, which is based in Edinburgh, is committed to the UK.

    In an internal note in September, he stated: “We have built a market leading platform which continues to be the fastest growing platform both by percentage and in terms of asset growth.”

    As cap on FDI in insurance goes, sector set for M&A action in 2016

    MUMBAI, JANUARY 3:
    With the Centre relaxing FDI cap for insurance, this sector is set for a spate of M&A in 2016.

    Anuj Sah, Associate Partner with law firm Khaitan & Co, said that out of the 35 joint ventures in the life and general insurance industry, at least half of them will see the foreign partners increase their stake.

    Already seven companies have announced deals where the foreign partners are raising their stake from 26 per cent to 49 per cent.

    They are — Hong Kong-headquartered AIA in Tata AIA Life Insurance Company, UK-based Bupa in Max Bupa Health Insurance, Canadian insurer Sun Life Financial in Birla Sun Life Insurance, French insurer AXA in life and general insurance joint ventures with Bharti Enterprises, German Munich Re’s insurance arm ERGO in HDFC ERGO general insurance and Dutch insurance group Aegon in Aegon Religare Life Insurance.

    FDI flows
    V Manickam, Secretary General of of the Life Insurance Council, said that while the insurance industry expected inflows to the tune of ?20,000 crore after the passage of the Insurance Amendment Bill, the actual inflows will come over a period of time.

    “The FDI flows will come over a period of time and not in one year. It was not that the Indian insurance sector was starved of capital but the fact is it takes time to do its own due diligence. Getting both partners to sit on the table and agree on numbers and way forward is not easy,” said Anuraag Sunder, Director-Insurance, PwC.

    Valuation of the venture
    Sanket Kawatkar, principal and consulting actuary of Milliman, adds that valuation may be the main dispute area for both partners to agree on, which may result in a delay in stake sales.

    “The difference in expectation of the domestic partner on the valuation of the insurance joint venture and what the foreign promoter is ready to pay, is getting reflected in the delay in stake sales,” said Kawatkar.

    He said that the valuation of the insurance joint venture is going to be derived by not just quantifiable aspects but softer aspects such as the growth that the foreign promoter perceives in the Indian market and comfort with the Indian promoter.

    Analysts also say that there is also considerable interest from private equity, pension and sovereign funds to pick up a stake in the domestic insurance sector as seen in ICICI bank, which plans to sell its 6 per cent stake in ICICI Prudential to PremjiInvest and Temasek.

    Price discovery
    Sunder said, “While there are foreign partners who have raised stake directly to 49 per cent, others are raising stake in a calibrated manner which is a far deeper and more thought out process to work through as they are doing a price discovery.”

    For consumers, the increased inflows into the sector will result in better products and pricing with insurers investing in better infrastructure and expertise.

    Communicatie via de media, Aegon heeft toch nooit bevestigd dat ze in gesprek zijn, misschien speelt er wel helemaal niets.

    "A spokesman for Aegon said the company was continuing to review its annuity business but was not yet able to provide an update on the review"

    Misschien zijn er wel andere kopers, het blijft nu gissen, het zijn meestal hele lange projecten en tijdens die onderhandelingen slaat de markt alle kanten op....
