Morningstar | Breakdown of Life Business Sale Adds to AMP’s Structural Headwinds, FVE Reduced

Despite AMP's strong market positions in a long-term growth industry, large distribution network, offshore growth options, the very damaging Royal Commission revelations have been an unprecedented disaster. AMP’s heritage brand has been trashed, and its long-term strategy is now uncertain. A wide range of remedial actions have been announced and have been or will be implemented as soon as practicable. Execution is always key, and so far we think the jury is out on whether new management can deliver. AMP's asset-management business is expanding across fast-growing Asian markets, and AMP Bank is recording strong earnings growth. However, AMP's competitive advantages of its distributional reach and brand recognition have been materially weakened following the Royal Commission.
