ALG Newsletter - 2026 outlook for SA life assurers. After a strong 2025 with a total return of over 21%, the SA life assurance index remains attractively positioned for 2026. While the battle for the mass market heats up, we see upside potential from asset-based fees, j-curve earnings, growing shareholder distributions and enhanced disclosure. A low inflation environment may offer challenges. We see undervalued players with share buybacks like Momentum and Old Mutual as best positioned for relative performance.
