Company Profile & Financial Strength

AKG's Company Profile & Financial Strength Reports are designed to meet the information needs of advisers and analysts in assessing the relative strengths of UK long term insurers. Two different styles of report are published by AKG - FULL reports and SHORT reports. A FULL report is produced for each of the leading firms in the market, which participate in the production of the reports. For each remaining firm which is covered, a SHORT report is produced.

AKG has produced a FULL report, which has been issued on a 'stand-alone' basis and covers a single marketing entity. The complete series of AKG's reports, which covers a broad spectrum of UK long term insurers - including both life assurance companies and friendly societies - is also published as a single document. Each report collates relevant information from a range of sources such as a company’s returns to the FSA, its report & accounts and material provided by the companies themselves and incorporates expert independent assessment. For full report companies, the process is augmented by regular meetings and other communications with AKG.

PLEASE NOTE: This report should be read in conjunction with AKG's User Guide to AKG's Company Profile and Financial Strength Reports, a copy of which is available at www.akg.co.uk.
