Against volatile market
conditions operating
profit before tax
increased by 43% to
£881m (2006: £614m).
Total profit before tax
fell 18% to £838m
(2006: £1,022m) as a
result of the reduction
in non-operating profits
which are mainly
market driven and
occur as a result of
investment performance being different from
that anticipated in the opening EEV. Further
details on operating profit and non-operating
profit are given in the EEV profitability and return on embedded value section.
