For this business, the useful question is how long-term products reach retail customers, policyholders and institutions through direct and intermediary routes while specialist capabilities support service and risk management.

Supplier influence can include the terms and availability of reinsurance, technology, market data and distribution capability. Buyer power varies between individual policyholders, advisers, platforms and institutional clients with different ability to compare alternatives. Substitutes are broader than direct competitors: they can include different saving, investment, retirement-planning or risk-transfer choices that meet a similar customer need.

Social themes include longevity, retirement expectations and financial confidence.
