Impact of IFRS 17 changes
.
At transition
Shareholders' equity impact at transition driven by
changes to composition and remeasurement of
insurance liabilities
IFRS 17 generally defers new business gains ¹ over
life of contract (vs. IFRS 4, which recognized gains
at time of origination)
Required to apply IFRS 17 for all existing in-force
contracts as well as new business
• At transition, for in-force contracts, there will be
a transfer from shareholders' equity to insurance
liabilities
•
•
Subsequent to transition
Modest reduction to underlying net income 1
in the 2022 comparative year
New business gains are deferred and recognized
over the life of contracts
Higher volumes and profitability of annual sales¹
lead to earnings decline on transition, but will
result in higher earnings going forward
Majority of our diverse business mix is largely
unimpacted and continues to grow
Capital: Positive to LICAT on transition; neutral to capital generation & volatility
