M&A Transactions & Themes There has been a resurgence of large strategic deals in 2015 Resurgence of Large Strategic Regulatory concerns over non-bank SIFI will limit large, strategic transactions Deals among the top life insurers Low valuations with little catalyst for stock price performances remain a significant Low obstacle to consolidation – even in overcrowded, highly-fragmented sectors Valuation/ Regulatory Continued regulatory overhang as industry deals with the explosion of regulatory Uncertainty requirements and authorities Cash will continue to be the currency of choice, driven by significantly improved balance sheets with excess capital “Cash is King” 19
