RISK FACTORS
The Issuer believes that the following factors may affect its ability to fulfill its obligations under the Notes.
All of these factors are contingencies which may or may not occur and the Issuer is not in a position to
express a view on the likelihood of any such contingency occurring.
Factors which the Issuer believes may be material for the purpose of assessing the market risks associated
with the Notes are also described below.
The Issuer believes that the factors described below represent the principal risks inherent in investing in the
Notes, but the inability of the Issuer to pay interest, principal or other amounts on or in connection with the
Notes may occur for other reasons and the Issuer does not represent that the statements below regarding the
risks of holding the Notes are exhaustive. Prospective investors should read the entire Prospectus. The
following is a disclosure of risk factors that are material to the Notes in order to assess the market risk
associated with these Notes and risk factors that may affect the Issuer's ability to fulfill its obligations under
the Notes. Prospective investors should consider these risk factors before deciding to purchase Notes. The
following statements are not exhaustive. Prospective investors should consider all information provided in
this Prospectus and consult with their own professional advisers if they consider it necessary. In addition,
investors should be aware that the risks described may combine and thus intensify one another. The
occurrence of one or more risks may have a material adverse effect on the own funds, the financial position
and the operating result of the Issuer.
Each of the risks highlighted below could have a material adverse effect on the business, operations,
financial conditions or prospects of the Issuer or the Group, which in turn could have a material adverse
effect on the amount of principal and interest which investors will receive in respect of the Notes. In
addition, each of the risks highlighted below could adversely affect the trading price of the Notes or the
rights of investors under the Notes and, as a result, investors could lose some or all of their investment.
Words and expressions defined in the section entitled "Terms and Conditions of the Notes" herein shall have
the same meanings in this section. For the purpose of this section, the Group is defined as the Issuer and its
fully consolidated subsidiaries.
The order in which the following risks factors are presented is not an indication of the likelihood of their
occurrence.
RISK FACTORS RELATING TO THE ISSUER
The following risk factors relating to the Issuer are additional to those which are set out on pages 150 to 161,
on pages 269 to 281 and on pages 314 to 323 of the 2014 Registration Document (as defined in the section
entitled "Information Incorporated by Reference") which are incorporated by reference in this Prospectus.
Our performance is affected by general economic conditions and the cyclical nature of the insurance and
reinsurance industries.
Our performance is affected by changes in economic conditions, both globally and in the particular countries
in which we conduct our business. The general insurance market is cyclical in nature. Furthermore, the
timing and application of these cycles differ among our geographic and product markets. Unpredictable
developments also affect the industry's profitability, including changes in competitive conditions and pricing
pressures, unforeseen developments in loss trends, market acceptance of new coverages, changes in operating
expenses, fluctuations in inflation and interest rates and other changes in investment markets that affect
market prices of investments and income from such investments. Fluctuations in the availability of capital
could also have a significant influence on the cyclical nature of the insurance market. These cycles influence
the demand for and pricing of our products and services and therefore affect our financial position, profits

8

and dividends. Accordingly, our results of operations may be adversely impacted if actual experience differs
from management's estimates.
Our businesses, and therefore our results of operation, financial condition and liquidity may be adversely
affected by the disruption in the global financial markets.
Global credit and equity markets experienced extreme disruption from 2007 to 2012, particularly in the
United States and Europe, and these markets have not fully recovered. This disruption included greater
volatility, significantly less liquidity, widening of credit spreads and a lack of price transparency in certain
markets. These conditions resulted in the failure of a number of financial institutions and unprecedented
action by governmental authorities and central banks around the world. Recently, there has been concerns
over access to capital markets and the solvency of certain European Union member states, including Greece,
Spain, Portugal, Ireland and Italy, unrest in the Middle East and North Africa, which has led to higher oil
prices, and market volatility. If disruption to the global financial markets continues, it could adversely affect
our business, financial condition, results of operations and profitability in future periods. In addition,
companies in our industry have become subject to increased litigation and regulatory and governmental
scrutiny as a result of these events.
We may also turn to the market for short-, medium- or long-term financing as a result of a drop in unrealised
gains, impairment of assets or a rise in surrender rates. Prolonged disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the
credit markets may limit our ability to access funding and capital, particularly our ability to issue longer-
dated securities in international capital markets. These market conditions may limit our ability to replace, in
a timely manner, maturing liabilities and access the capital necessary to grow our business and pursue
further acquisitions. We may also be forced to delay raising longer term funding and capital, issue shorter
tenors than we prefer, or pay unattractive interest rates, thereby increasing our debt expense, decreasing our
profitability and significantly reducing our financial flexibility.
We are dependent on our ability to reinsure risks.
An insurance company will usually attempt to limit its risks in particular lines of business or from specific
events by using outward reinsurance arrangements. We enter into a significant number of reinsurance
contracts to limit our risk. Under these arrangements, other reinsurers assume a portion of the claims and
related expenses in connection with insurance policies we write. The availability, amount and cost of
reinsurance depend on prevailing market conditions, in terms of price and available capacity, which may vary
significantly.
We have stringent controls with respect to the external reinsurers with which we do business, but there are
risks associated with the determination of the appropriate levels of reinsurance protection, matching of
reinsurance to underlying policies, the cost of such reinsurance and the financial security of such reinsurers.
Ceding of risk to our reinsurers does not relieve us of our primary liability to our insured. Accordingly, we
are subject to counterparty risk with respect to our reinsurers. Although we initially place our reinsurance
with reinsurers that we believe to be financially stable, this may change adversely by the time recoveries are
due which could be many years later. A reinsurer's failure to make payment under the terms of a
significant reinsurance contract would have a material adverse effect on our businesses, financial condition
and results of operations. In addition, after making large claims on our reinsurers, we may have to pay
substantial reinstatement premiums to continue reinsurance cover.
We operate in a highly competitive industry.
There is substantial competition among general insurance companies in the jurisdictions in which we do
business. We compete with general insurers many of whom have greater financial and marketing resources
and greater name recognition than we have. The recent consolidation in the global financial services industry
has also enhanced the competitive position of some of our competitors compared to us by broadening the
range of their products and services, and increasing their distribution channels and their access to capital.

9

The level of profitability of a general insurance company is significantly influenced by the adequacy of
premium income relative to its risk profile and claims exposure, as well as the general level of business costs.
While we seek to maintain premium rates at targeted levels, the effect of competitive market conditions may
have a material adverse effect on our market share and financial condition. In addition, development of
alternative distribution channels for certain types of insurance products, including through internet may result
in increasing competition as well as pressure on margins for certain types of products. The distribution
agreements that we have with our distributors may not be renewed, or may be renewed with additional
provisions that could have adverse effects on our distribution costs or our market-share in the insurance
industry.
A downgrade in our rating may increase policy cancellations and non-renewals, adversely affect
relationships with distributors and negatively impact new business.
Our insurer financial strength rating is an important factor in establishing and maintaining our competitive
position. The rating agency regularly reviews our rating and the ratings of our main subsidiaries. Changes in
rating methodology may also lead the rating agency to modify our rating. Future downgrades in the ratings
of any of our subsidiaries (or the potential for such a downgrade) could, among other things, materially
increase the number of policy cancellations and non-renewals, adversely affect relationships with the
distributors of our products and services, including new sales of our products, and negatively impact the
level of our premiums and adversely affect our ability to obtain reinsurance at reasonable prices or at all.
This could adversely affect our businesses, financial condition, results of operations and our cost of capital.
Changes in government policy, regulation or legislation in the countries in which we operate may affect
our profitability.
We are subject to extensive regulation and supervision in the jurisdictions in which we do business. This
includes, by way of example, matters relating to licensing and examination, rate setting, trade practices,
policy reforms, limitations on the nature and amount of certain investments, underwriting and claims
practices, mandated participation in shared markets and guarantee funds, adequacy of our claims provisions,
capital and surplus requirements, insurer solvency, transactions between affiliates, the amount of dividends
that may be paid and underwriting standards. Such regulation and supervision is primarily for the benefit and
protection of policyholders and not for the benefit of investors. In some cases, regulation in one country may
affect business operations in another country. As the amount and complexity of these regulations increase,
so will the cost of compliance and the risk of non-compliance. If we do not meet regulatory or other
requirements, we may suffer penalties including fines, suspension or cancellation of our insurance licenses
which could adversely affect our ability to do business. In addition, significant regulatory action against us
could have material adverse financial effects, cause significant reputational harm or harm our business
prospects.
In addition, we may be adversely affected by changes in government policy or legislation applying to
companies in the insurance industry. These include possible changes in regulations covering pricing and
benefit payments for certain statutory classes of business, the deregulation and nationalization of certain
classes of business, the regulation of selling practices, the regulations covering policy terms and the
imposition of new taxes and assessments or increases in existing taxes and assessments. Regulatory changes
may affect our existing and future businesses by, for example, causing customers to cancel or not renew
existing policies or requiring us to change our range of products or to provide certain products (such as
terrorism or flood cover where it is not already required) and services, redesign our technology or other
systems, retrain our staff, pay increased tax or incur other costs. It is not possible to determine what changes
in government policy or legislation will be adopted in any jurisdiction in which we operate and, if so, what
form they will take or in what jurisdictions they may occur. Insurance laws or regulations that are adopted or
amended may be more restrictive than our current requirements, may result in higher costs or limit our
growth or otherwise adversely affect our operations.
