Chesnara has announced its first acquisition of 2023.

Key Points: 
  • Chesnara has announced its first acquisition of 2023.
  • It is buying the onshore protection business from Canada Life’s UK business.
  • Chesnara is paying £9m for the policies, and expects the Economic Value to be £16m – so this is a bit smaller than some of its more recent deals.
  • This benefit is relatively front-end-loaded; so there will be a smaller cashflow benefit beyond the five years.
