M&GPrudential investor and analyst conference
Prudential plc today announces that M&GPrudential is holding a
conference for investors and analysts in London on 3 July
2019.
The conference aims to provide a deeper insight into
M&GPrudential, covering the distinctive capabilities that
position it to capture the long-term opportunities in its key
savings and investments markets. It will also include a review of
past financial performance with a new segmental
analysis.
John Foley, M&GPrudential's Chief Executive, said: "We operate
in attractive, growing markets underpinned by long-term favourable
demographics, in particular ageing populations and the shift to
private sector responsibility for retirement. The profitable growth
prospects for M&GPrudential are substantial, given the scale
and capabilities of our savings and investment business and our
expanding international footprint.
"We look forward to showcasing M&GPrudential's unique business
mix, which when combined with our disciplined approach to capital
management, will underpin our ability to achieve profitable growth
and deliver an attractive total return for
shareholders."
In March 2018, Prudential plc announced its intention to demerge
M&GPrudential, the international savings and investments
business formed by the merger of asset manager M&G and
Prudential's UK and Europe insurance operations.

Forward-Looking Statements
This document may contain 'forward-looking statements' with respect
to certain of Prudential's plans and its goals and expectations
relating to its future financial condition, performance, results,
strategy and objectives. Statements that are not historical facts,
including statements about Prudential's beliefs and expectations
and including, without limitation, statements containing the words
'may', 'will', 'should', 'continue', 'aims', 'estimates',
'projects', 'believes', 'intends', 'expects', 'plans', 'seeks' and
'anticipates', and words of similar meaning, are forward-looking
statements. These statements are based on plans, estimates and
projections as at the time they are made, and therefore undue
reliance should not be placed on them. By their nature, all
forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty. A number
of important factors could cause Prudential's actual future
financial condition or performance or other indicated results to
differ materially from those indicated in any forward-looking
statement. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the
timing, costs and successful implementation of the demerger of the
M&GPrudential business; the future trading value of the shares
of Prudential plc and the trading value and liquidity of the shares
of the to-be-listed M&GPrudential business following such
demerger; future market conditions, including fluctuations in
interest rates and exchange rates, the potential for a sustained
low-interest rate environment, and the performance of financial
markets generally; the policies and actions of regulatory
authorities, including, for example, new government initiatives;
the political, legal and economic effects of the UK's decision to
leave the European Union; the impact of continuing designation as a
Global Systemically Important Insurer or 'G-SII'; the impact of
competition, economic uncertainty, inflation and deflation; the
effect on Prudential's business and results from, in particular,
mortality and morbidity trends, lapse rates and policy renewal
rates; the timing, impact and other uncertainties of future
acquisitions or combinations within relevant industries; the impact
of internal projects and other strategic actions failing to meet
their objectives; disruption to the availability, confidentiality
or integrity of Prudential's IT systems (or those of its
suppliers); the impact of changes in capital, solvency standards,
accounting standards or relevant regulatory frameworks, and tax and
other legislation and regulations in the jurisdictions in which
Prudential and its affiliates operate; and the impact of legal and
regulatory actions, investigations and disputes. These and other
important factors may, for example, result in changes to
assumptions used for determining results of operations or
re-estimations of reserves for future policy benefits. Further
discussion of these and other important factors that could cause
Prudential's actual future financial condition or performance or
other indicated results to differ, possibly materially, from those
anticipated in Prudential's forward-looking statements can be found
under the 'Risk Factors' heading in its most recent Annual
Report and the 'Risk Factors' heading of Prudential's most recent
annual report on Form 20-F filed with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission, as well as under the 'Risk Factors' heading of
any subsequent Prudential Half Year Financial Report. Prudential's
most recent Annual Report, Form 20-F and any subsequent Half Year
Financial Report are available on its website
at www.prudential.co.uk
Any forward-looking statements contained in this document speak
only as of the date on which they are made. Prudential expressly
disclaims any obligation to update any of the forward-looking
statements contained in this document or any other forward-looking
statements it may make, whether as a result of future events, new
information or otherwise except as required pursuant to the UK
Prospectus Rules, the UK Listing Rules, the UK Disclosure and
Transparency Rules, the Hong Kong Listing Rules, the SGX-ST listing
rules or other applicable laws and regulations.
