- The FY21 reported insurance profit in this document is presented on a management reported (non-IFRS) basis which is not directly comparable to the equivalent statutory (IFRS) figure in IAG's FY21 Financial Report (Appendix 4E). A reconciliation between the two is provided on page 6 of the FY21 Investor Report and on page 8 of the Financial Report to comply with the Australian Securities and
Investments Commission's Regulatory Guide 230. IAG's FY21 net loss after tax is the same in this document and in the Financial Report. - IAG defines its underlying insurance margin as the reported insurance margin adjusted for net natural peril claim costs less the related allowance; reserve releases or strengthening and credit spread movements. Prior to FY21, the definition adjusted for reserve releases in excess of 1% of net earned premium. Comparative periods have not been restated to incorporate the definition from FY21.
