Total Risk Market Inflows down a marginal 0.6% over the year from $18.3bn to $18.2bn

Inflows into the Lump Sum sub-market posted a fall of 2.5% over the past year with mixed results amongst leading companies, with NobleOak (22.7%), ClearView (9.9%), TAL (1.2%) and Zurich (1.0%) posting positive growth, offset by Resolution (-32.7%) and AIA (-5.8%) who were both down. Much of the Resolution drop relates to the AMP Super mandate which transitioned to TAL during the quarter, part of which was previously classified by Resolution as Individual Risk business but is now included by TAL under Group Risk.

Risk Income Inflows also fell albeit by less than the Lump Sum market, down 1.0% over the past year. Among the better performers in percentage growth terms were NobleOak (22.4%), ClearView (10.6%) and MLC (1.1%).

Overall Group Risk Premium Inflows experienced a 1.7% rise over the past year, with medium-size competitor Zurich reporting the highest growth rate of 29.8% after taking over the Brighter Super insurance mandate from TAL, followed by MetLife (up 19.9% after taking over the UniSuper mandate from TAL) and TAL (up 2.3% including the transition of the AMP Super mandate from Resolution). It should be noted that individual company growth can be significantly impacted by super fund insurance mandate movements.
