The main risk of investing in L&G is the high correlation of the stock with the general stock market and therefore the sharp decline in the event of a stock market crash. However, a risk-tolerant investor (in the sense that they can tolerate increased volatility) might actually see this as an opportunity to increase their stake in the company because the fundamentals remain intact. Operationally, L&G appears to be a mixed pocket during a stock market crash, as its wealth management business is likely to generate lower volume-based fees, while its pensions division will be able to buy group annuities at high prices. In an environment of rising interest rates, I consider L&G to be fundamentally well positioned, with the exception of the bond portfolio described above.

Legal & General was founded in June 1836 by Sergeant John Adams and five other lawyers in a café in Chancery Lane. [6] Originally called the New Law Life Assurance Society, the Society was limited to lawyers. The name was changed to Legal & General Life Assurance Society to reflect the fact that the policies were available to the general public, but ownership of the shares was limited to lawyers. The group expanded into the UK and soon began acquiring foreign life insurance companies, buying a retirement business from the Metropolitan Life Assurance Company of New York in the 1930s.
[6] Barriers to entry into insurance and wealth management activities, both of which are highly regulated, can generally be considered high. Therefore, L&G can be assumed to operate in an oligopoly with, for example, Prudential (PUK) and Aviva (OTCPK: AIVAF). However, fintech agility should not be underestimated, and L&G`s ongoing efforts related to digitalization (e.g., increasing operational efficiency, improving and simplifying the onboarding experience) should be closely monitored.

Legal & General Group (OTCPK: LGGNF, OTCPK: LGGNY) is a UK-based insurer, leading international provider with a strong commitment to inclusive capitalism and ESG-conscious investing. The company, recognizable by its iconic logo, was founded in 1836 as a life insurance company for lawyers. Today, it goes well beyond life insurance and includes the following business segments: The payout ratio as a percentage of net income is acceptable and has been around 60% over the past six years, up from 69% in fiscal 2020 due to lower pandemic-related earnings. I think L&G`s dividend is reasonably safe, but I want to stress that as a systemically important financial company, L&G could face a mandatory dividend suspension in the event of a severe economic downturn. Although I am not involved with L&G, I would like to draw the reader`s attention to the statement issued by the European Banking Authority in March 2020, in which it called on banks to pursue prudent policies on dividends and other dividends. As a result, several country-specific banking authorities have communicated their general expectations to banks or have initiated bilateral dialogues to limit or refrain from distributing dividends and buying back shares.
