Milan, Italy, 12 November 2013 – In the presence of the Chairman Salvatore Maccarone, Intesa Sanpaolo Vita's Board of Directors approved the results as at 30 September 2013 of the Intesa Sanpaolo Vita insurance group¹.

The Intesa Sanpaolo Vita insurance group, under the management of the Managing Director Gianemilio Osculati, generated important and sound results, in continuity with those achieved in 2012. The results for the first nine months of 2013 were characterised by excellent performances, great efficiency and sustainable profitability:

• Operating income amounting to 474.1 million euro, 479.7 million euro in the first nine months of 2012
• Operating costs amounting to 46.4 million euro, down with respect to 55.9 million euro in the first nine months of 2012 (-17%). A drop also highlighted by the Cost/income ratio which stood at 9.7%
• Pre-tax income amounting to 427.5 million euro, in line with the first nine months of 2012
• Net income amounting to 289.3 million euro, compared with 269 million euro in the first nine months of 2012

The Chairman Salvatore Maccarone highlighted interesting and positive signs: "We are satisfied with how 2013 is going. The results for this third quarter are confirmed as good, in line with the previous ones, and the Group is increasingly making a name for itself as leading stakeholder in the life business on the Italian market. Our business model is solid and is also considered highly abroad: we were already aware of this but we received further confirmation in September at the time of the bond issue, which - despite debuting at that time - was particularly appreciated by the international markets".

The third quarter has provided grounds to be proud for the Managing Director Gianemilio Osculati: "Intesa Sanpaolo Vita is an efficient business in terms of production costs, we can see this in our numbers and results, and the international financial community has shown signs of great appreciation for our bond. The issue closed on 18 September and subscribed for 500 million, saw demand for nearly three billion, six time more. A result achieved thanks to our work, greatly appreciated by international investors, especially if we consider that when we presented ourselves we were a new insurance company for the European context and that we are an unlisted company. There is great satisfaction also for the ratings which Fitch Ratings has assigned us after having analysed our accounts: BBB+, the same rating as the Parent Company Intesa Sanpaolo".
