Friends Provident reiterates its strong capital position


In the light of the prevailing economic uncertainty, Friends Provident plc reconfirms its strong capital position by announcing that its Insurance Groups Directive (IGD) surplus at 30 September has not materially changed from the approximately £1bn reported at 30 June 2008.


A fall of 30% in equity prices from current levels would have no material impact on this surplus.
