OLD MUTUAL HAS RECEIVED SECTION 17 APPROVAL TO ESTABLISH A BANK

Old Mutual is pleased to announce that, following a stringent regulatory review of its application in terms of
Section 16 of the Banks Act 94 of 1990, as amended ("Banks Act"), the Prudential Authority has granted the
Group approval to establish a bank subject to certain licence conditions.

This approval, in terms of Section 17 of the Banks Act, allows Old Mutual to proceed to the next critical stage
in the process of establishing a bank. The Group will now formally transition from 'bank build mode' and
enter into a strict and rigorous industry testing phase with selected bank partners. Upon a successful error-
free testing, the new OM Bank will fully integrate into the National Payments System.

"The approval to establish a Bank is a material catalyst in our strategic delivery journey. It accelerates the
fulfilment of our strategic choice to build an Integrated Financial Services business and further strengthens
our victory condition to be our customers' first choice to sustain, grow and protect their prosperity" said Iain
Williamson, the Group Chief Executive Officer.
