14 Ultimately, we want to be client centric as this is the best chance we have to ensure a sustainable industry. However, the journey to be client centric rests on a number of pillars.

15 The journey to Client Centricity Education (financial literacy & professional training) Distribution (Omni-channel) Regulatory (Prudential & Market conduct)

16 Education World Economic Forum says more kids are going to school, but quality of education is becoming an issue, due to: More kids in a class room Little expansion of school infrastructure Industry needs to support all efforts to drive bigger school enrolment with focus on quality education Focus is on improving maths & science enrollment levels and pass rates Consumer Financial Literacy Has to cover personal financial circumstances through to understanding insurance products (i.e. benefits & costs) Financially literate consumers is a strong antidote for high lapse rates True client centricity cannot happen when consumers are not financially literate A financially literate consumer is the cornerstone to our industry sustainability Industry Professional Training Systems and processes are core to our operational success Needs to be addressed over short to medium term Technical skills (i.e. actuarial) and expertise are relatively scarce and we have to build it over time Needs to be addressed over medium to longer term Assess for appropriate skills within insurers but also within regulator

17

18 Product licensing Financial Control Market regulation Company licensing Role of the Regulator Consumer Protection

19 Benefits Assists with providing consumer confidence & trust + level playing field for insurers Ensures solvency to companies Fairness & financial benefits to consumers Issues Over regulation Appropriate or fit for purpose regulation No real cost benefit to either company or consumer Opportunities Continuously building trust through ethical business conduct Open and honest engagement with regulator Put client at center of all key decision making Impact Appropriate regulation will draw required investment Appropriate regulation will support insurers to provide real benefit to Appropriate low income consumers regulation will support sustainability of industry

20 Consumer Financial Education Client centric outcome Professional industry training Appropriate Regulation Distribution

21 Reputation Our products are intangible and integrity of the product is based on the promise we make to clients Issue of Trust is paramount in our industry This is amplified when industry players do not live up to promises they made Industry has to be seen as one which treats customers fairly

22 Key challenges in Africa Fragmented key markets (i.e. Kenya & Nigeria) General Insurance (GI) business opportunities greater than Life Require strong GI capability Continuous focus on basics and getting fundamentals right (i.e. systems, collections, renewals & persistency) Skills development opportunities for staff professional training & development Governance & ethics Risk management & compliance Regulation inconsistency

23 profitable growth and innovation by sweating our current footprint, entrenching strong governance principles and ensuring that there are sufficient capabilities to execute

24 local brokers

25 shift in focus from acquisitive to accelerated organic growth through specific focus on GI businesses explore new product offerings (health, PFA, reinsurance) increased visibility of Sanlam brand as partnership brand for markets and our employees deliver on corporate opportunities in Africa in support of retail and commercial business growth increased collaboration on human resource development across the cluster continued focus on governance, compliance and ethics industry consolidation/increasing shareholding/strategic partnerships where it makes sense
