Hans van der Noordaa, chairman of the Executive Board: "Delta Lloyd remains focused on serving our customers in the best possible way and on improving our core businesses. DELTA LLOYD has delivered a solid performance in 2014, making good progress in further adapting our business model to a new reality of changing customer preferences, sustained low interest rates and a rapidly changing regulatory framework. In our Life business, we have successfully accelerated the shift to less capital intensive pension schemes, with a clear focus on inflow of annual premiums. Following the restructuring of the portfolio, our General insurance business has performed well, due to strict underwriting, lower costs and improved profitability. The sale of non-core activities in Belgium and Germany will enable management to focus even more on our core business. For 2015, customer centricity, prudent capital management and improving efficiency will be our key priorities."
