- We believe these core strengths will enable us to grow profitably as an aging U.S. population transitions into retirement.
- As a result, the changes in the fair value of the derivatives used as part of our overall hedging program are not expected to match the movements in the market risk benefit liabilities resulting in volatility from changes in fair value recorded to net income.
- Our capital return target for common shareholders for 2026 is $900 million - $1.1 billion.
- We expect free capital generation in 2026 to be at or above $1.2 billion, assuming 5% equity market total return and interest rates following the December 31, 2025 forward curve.
- We expect to continue evaluating opportunities to enhance our captive strategy, with a continued focus on policyholder protection, economic risk management and capital efficiency.
- Overall, this transaction allows us to optimize our hedging, stabilize capital generation, and produce more predictable financial results going forward.
- We expect that the recent environment of higher interest rates and attractive annuity alternatives, such as RILA, combined with Jackson’s seasoned "out-of-the-money" book heightens exchange activity for us and the industry.
- In the short- to medium-term, increased volatility could pressure sales and reduce demand for our products as consumers consider purchasing alternative products to meet their objectives.
- This could lead to adverse performance versus our hedge targets and increased hedging costs.
- We make available to customers funds where we believe we can transact in sufficiently correlated hedge assets, yet we anticipate some variance in the performance of our hedge assets relative to customer funds.
- This variance may result in our hedge assets outperforming or underperforming the customer assets they are intended to match.
