About IOOF
IOOF Holdings Ltd (the Company or Parent) is listed in the top 200 on the Australian Securities Exchange
(ASX: IFL). The IOOF Group consists of the Company and its subsidiaries and the consolidated Group's
interest in its associates. The Group has offices in Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Brisbane, Perth and Hobart.
At 30 June 2021, Funds Under Management, Administration and Advice (FUMA) (ex-MLC) were $213.3b
compared with FUMA of $202.3b at 30 June 2020. This reflects strong uplift due to market performance
($26.1b). Market movements were partly offset by net outflows of $8.6b, pension payments of $2.0b and
combined one-off movements of $4.5b net outflow, including changes to external platform arrangements and
early release of super. MLC Assets Under Management and Funds Under Administration (AUM/FUA) acquired
were $301.2b.
In the opinion of the Directors, aside from matters as disclosed in this financial report, there were no significant
changes in the state of affairs of the Group that occurred during the financial year.
Underlying net profit after tax for the year ended 30 June 2021 was up $19.0m or 14.8% to $147.8m relative
to the prior corresponding period (pcp).
Principal Activities
The principal continuing activities of the IOOF Group during the financial year consisted of:
Financial Advice – IOOF believes in the value of quality financial advice and that it should be more
accessible, more affordable and more engaging for Australians. The financial advisers that we partner with
are experienced professionals who help their clients identify, prioritise and achieve their financial and
personal goals by building long-term trusted relationships, implementing tailored financial plans that are
reviewed regularly and updated as the client’s circumstances change. This is achieved through helping
clients navigate their way through a range of financial products and services and educating clients to
improve their financial literacy. Post MLC completion on 31 May 2021, the Financial Advice segment
includes the advice operations acquired as part of the MLC Wealth transaction.
Portfolio & Estate Administration – At IOOF, we recognise individuals have different needs, goals and ways
of engaging with their superannuation and investments. To enable this, we offer a wide range of solutions
to support our clients including investors, members, employers and advisers. Employer solutions currently
service more than 15,000 employers and 300,000 members through IOOF Employer Super and ANZ Smart
Choice Super. Adviser solutions provide advisers a broad selection of platform solutions, both wrap and
master trust structures, to cater for individuals with simple or complex needs. Direct solutions allow clients
to take control of their financial future through products such as ANZ Smart Choice Super and Pension and
IOOF WealthBuilder.
Investment Management – our highly-skilled investment team has a proven investment process that is
focussed on delivering strong and consistent returns. The team accesses world-leading investment
managers across a broad range of highly-rated single and multi-manager funds, combining them with other
attractive investment opportunities, to offer an easy and effective way for our clients to achieve their
investment goals. Principle products include: IOOF MultiMix, IOOF MultiSeries, OptiMix and OnePath
Diversified.
MLC Wealth – the MLC Wealth businesses were acquired from National Australia Bank (NAB) on 31 May
2021, including platform and asset management businesses across retail and corporate. These activities
are similar to the activities described above in Portfolio & Estate Administration and Investment
Management. MLC platform and asset management will be integrated into the existing IOOF business
segments during the 2022 Financial Year.

Key strategic initiatives
The IOOF Group remains focussed on the delivery of Advice 2.0, Evolve21 and Transformation as the key
strategic initiatives and the progress against these priorities are set out below:
Advice 2.0
The key strategic priority to make advice more affordable, accessible and engaging for Australians while
helping businesses become more sustainable and profitable. It consists of three pillars:
Client Engagement includes goals-based advice that is accessible, affordable and engaging to Australians
supported by clear and relevant client value propositions.
Adviser efficiency includes market leading, next generation best practice advice models that streamlines
advice generation, servicing and governance making advisers more efficient while uplifting advice quality.
AFSL (Australian Financial Services Licence) sustainability involves offering compelling discrete value
propositions across each advice channel providing advisers with choice reflecting value and risk and that are
profitable without the need for cross subsidisation.
FY21 progress:
AFSL model has been reshaped to optimise and streamline the management of the self-employed AFSLs
and IOOF Alliances into two like-minded groups, based on alignment of value proposition and operating
models. The new model reinforces our commitment to a multi-brand strategy, as we continue to recognise
the value of our distinct advice brands and communities.
The transition of Bridges to a wholly employed network and the closure of the Financial Service Partners
AFSL, which was operating at sub scale. This process included a number of FSP and Bridges self-employed
advisers joining other IOOF AFSLs.
The acquisition of Wealth Central will play a key role in helping improve both client engagement and adviser
efficiency. Wealth Central is a digital engagement platform that will help advisers deliver advice in a more
efficient and engaging way, making it a unique differentiator and advantage for our adviser network.
Evolve21
Evolve21 is a cross functional program of work delivering one integrated platform – known as Evolve – to
consolidate all heritage IOOF proprietary platforms into a single contemporary platform by the end of calendar
year 2021. IOOF is on track to meet this target, having completed the phase one product migration in June
2021, migrating over 38,000 member accounts. Phase 2 is expected to be complete in December 2021.
Evolve21 will enable simplification of the business, support the ClientFirst methodology and deliver for our
people by reducing waste and complexity, allowing greater focus on service excellence. Evolve21 is critical to
IOOF’s ability to deliver improved client outcomes through efficiency, sustainability and our ability to innovate.
Further platform projects will commence at the completion of Evolve21 to continue the rationalisation process
to include P&I and MLC platforms.
Transformation
IOOF is bringing together the IOOF ex-ANZ P&I and MLC businesses to ensure client outcomes are paramount
while synergy targets are reached via improved scale and efficiency.
In May 2021 and in line with stated timelines, IOOF completed the purchase of NAB’s MLC business. IOOF is
continuing work on the separation of the P&I business acquired in January 2020 from ANZ. IOOF has moved
into the next phase of finalising remaining separation work on both P&I and MLC and realising the expected
benefits via meaningful operating cost synergies.
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Operating and financial review
5
The separation from ANZ is primarily reliant on system separation, which is currently forecast to be delivered
in late 2022. Until this time ANZ is supporting IOOF by providing transitional services under a Transitional
Services Agreement (TSA). The MLC business was substantially more progressed in separation at the time of
acquisition and as a result, IOOF’s reliance upon NAB for similar TSA services is shorter in duration.
Key areas of focus include rationalisation of products and services, optimisation of organisational structure,
elimination of duplicate back office functions and leveraging the benefits of increased scale. Key functions and
staff under the ANZ TSA will be progressively transitioned on an “as ready” basis. This will ensure functions
are both bedded down as early as possible and IOOF’s reliance on the TSA services is reduced as soon as
possible. In parallel, IOOF is working towards realising the benefits of joining the three businesses.
Governance and executive oversight is maintained through key forums including the Executive Transformation
and Integration Steering Committee and the Design Integration Group. Delivery teams have been mobilised
to ensure execution of key milestones such as system separation, organisational re-design, product and
platform integration and entity rationalisation strategy. Underlying this is ensuring that IOOF’s ClientFirst
strategy is embedded in all aspects of integration.
The IOOF Group has a long-term strategy of pursuing growth through acquisitions and has completed several
acquisitions in recent years. Acquisitions have been pursued where they present a logical strategic fit with
existing operations and are priced reasonably for the expected value accretion to shareholders.
Key performance indicators
Underlying net profit after tax
The following table, which has not been audited, provides a reconciliation between the reported results of the
IOOF Group and underlying net profit after tax pre-amortisation (UNPAT), with the results of the benefit funds
excluded. UNPAT is a non-GAAP metric that is used by management to monitor the performance of the Group.
In calculating UNPAT, the IOOF Group reverses the impact on profit of certain, predominantly non-recurring,
items to enable a better understanding of its underlying operational result. It is the UNPAT result which will be
analysed in detail in this section of the Directors' Report. The year ended 30 June 2020 is denoted as the prior
comparative period or pcp.

UNPAT adjustments:
Amortisation of intangible assets: Non-cash entry reflective of declining intangible asset values over their
useful lives. Intangible assets are recognised upon acquisition. Intangible assets (other than goodwill) are
amortised over the expected useful life of the asset. The amortisation of software development costs is not
reversed in calculating UNPAT.
Unwind of deferred tax liability recorded on intangible assets: Acquired intangible asset valuations for
accounting are higher than the tax cost base. A deferred tax liability (DTL) is required to be recognised as
there is an embedded capital gain should the assets be divested which represents the difference between
accounting values and tax bases at 30%. The recognition of DTL and subsequent reductions are not reflective
of conventional recurring operations and are regarded as highly unlikely to be realised due to the IOOF Group's
intention to hold these assets long term.
Transformation and integration costs: As IOOF implements its transformation agenda post completion of
the MLC and ANZ Pensions and Investments (P&I) acquisitions, this category includes transaction costs
associated with external advisers, upfront costs of securing finance and internal staff and specialist contractor
costs relating to integration. Costs include project labour costs, redundancy and termination costs, IT and other
consultancy fees, outsourced hosting services and Adviser recognition program costs which are not reflective
of recurring operations.
Impairment of goodwill: Non-cash impairment related to goodwill associated with Shadforth Financial Group,
DKN Financial Group and Bridges Financial Services Group. Primarily reflecting the termination of the platform
relationship with BT Portfolio Services Ltd and the cessation of grandfathered commission revenue in the
advice business.
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Operating and financial review
7
Evolve: Project labour costs and IT consultancy fees associated with the Group's proprietary Evolve platform
project. One-off cost to bring multiple heritage IOOF platforms together in preparation for integration and
simplification of acquisitions.
Advice 2.0: One-off costs, including legal fees and consultancy fees in connection with the implementation of
Advice 2.0.
BT settlement income: One-off settlement income in connection with the termination of the platform
relationship with BT Portfolio Services Ltd.
Governance uplift costs: Costs incurred in undertaking projects that are outside the ordinary course of
business. Costs predominantly relate to project labour costs and consultancy fees.
Legal provision: Expenditure predominantly in connection with settlement of the judgement in the Kerr v
Australia Executor Trustees (SA) Ltd proceedings in excess of amounts covered by the Group's insurance.
Remediation costs: Movements in remediation provisions relating to IOOF’s various structured remediation
programs other than payments to clients or advisers which are recorded directly against the provision.
Non-recurring professional fees paid: Payment of specific legal costs that are not reflective of conventional
recurring operations. Includes costs associated with assistance with APRA and ASIC related matters.
Termination payments: Represents termination payments to staff due to restructuring activities that deliver
long term efficiency gains.
Unrealised loss on revaluation of embedded derivative: Movements in valuation of embedded derivative
that forms part of the Subordinated Loan Notes. Gains and losses will be recognised as IOOF’s share price
moves with reference to the initial reference price on valuation. Refer to note 3-2.
Other: Losses on divestment of non-current assets and impairment of customer related intangibles.
Income tax attributable: This represents the income tax applicable to certain adjustment items outlined
above.

Net operating revenue increased by $118.3m
P&I contributed an additional $168.0m in net operating revenue for the full year of operations as compared to
the 5 months in the pcp. This results in an approximately 10% increase in net operating revenue on a run-rate
basis for the P&I segment driven by strong market performance in FY21 with FUMA market growth of $10.7b
offsetting net outflows and one off adjustments of $4.4b.
The increase in net operating revenue is partly offset by decreases in revenue in the following segments:
$29.3m reduction in net operating revenue generated by the Financial Advice segment primarily driven by
the cessation of grandfathered commissions and the cessation of the BT contract.
Margin contraction in the platform segment of $11.4m due to clients moving between products.
$7.3m reduction in net operating revenue generated by the ex-ANZ wealth management segment driven by
regulatory changes with the cessation of grandfathered commissions and volume rebates from fund
managers.
Investment management net operating revenue was $1.9m lower than prior year due to slight reduction in
margin compounded by a reduction in Funds Under Management (FUM).
Other revenue decreased by $5.0m
The reduction in other revenue relates predominantly to lower adviser conference revenue received as a result
of the cancellation of advice/ adviser conferences due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Operating expenditure increased by $95.1m
P&I contributed an additional $86.6m in operating expenditure for the full year of operations as compared to
the 5 months in the pcp. This results in an approximately 2% reduction in operating expenditure on a run-rate
basis for the P&I segment. After adjusting for the annualisation of the P&I impact, there is an increase of 2%
in operating expenditure (excludes the impact of expenditure items reversed when calculating UNPAT).
Labour costs are the IOOF Group's most material cost item at 79% of operating expenditure. These costs have
increased by $7.0m (adjusted for annualised P&I impact) primarily due to increased bonus provisions in the
current year after bonuses were significantly reduced in the pcp due to COVID-19 financial impacts.
Other net movements in operating expenditure relate predominantly to an increase in computer license fees
and consultancy costs, partially offset by a reduction in travel and entertainment costs as a result of reduced
travel due to COVID-19.
Net financing costs increased by $5.2m
Net Financing costs have increased predominantly due to lower interest income generated through lower
interest rates on deposits. This is partially offset by lower interest expense driven by repayment of debt post
MLC capital raise. Debt was redrawn to facilitate MLC completion on 31 May 2021.
Net non-cash items decreased UNPAT by $3.6m
Depreciation expense has increased $6.0m, predominantly reflecting the additional 7 months of P&I costs
included in the current financial year, partially offset by $0.8m lower share-based payments expense due to
non-vesting of previously expensed grants.

Financial Position
The IOOF Group held cash and cash equivalents of $670.7m at 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: $374.7m). Cash
is held to satisfy regulatory net asset requirements and also to ensure adequate liquidity given management
fee receipts are less frequent than payroll and service fee cash outflows. With the acquisition of MLC, some
reserves held to satisfy regulatory net asset requirements are designated as financial assets. ORFR reserve
of $402.7m (comprising cash and financial assets) and $4.6m cash held by the Group's statutory benefit funds
at 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: $145.6m and $3.7m) are not available to shareholders.
Shareholder returns
The IOOF Group dividend is calibrated to provide shareholders with a benefit which reflects performance and
offers an attractive yield when assessed against a range of other investment options. The Board also
understands that dividend payments should not hinder future organisational plans. The Board has therefore
determined that a pay-out ratio range of 60% - 90% of UNPAT is generally appropriate, but not binding. The
Board has determined that a dividend of 11.5 cents per share comprising an ordinary dividend of 9.5 cents per
share and a special dividend of 2.0 cents per share, resulting in a total ordinary dividend payout ratio of 75.8%,
is appropriate. Current year profits support the payout.
Total Shareholder Return (TSR) measures the change in share value over a specified period and dividends
received. The IOOF Group’s TSR for the year ended 30 June 2021 was negative 8.5% reflecting a share price
decline of 13.2% and partially offset by a dividend yield of 4.7% (based on the financial year volume weighted
average price). TSR in the 5-year period from 1 July 2016 was negative 19.7% and negative 6.9% on a
compounding annualised basis. The IOOF Group is in a strong financial position with significant free cash,
borrowings within covenants and a low interest rate environment which reduces borrowing costs. All TSR
figures quoted above include the final 2021 dividend but no other dividends that have been declared to be
paid.

Capital and liquidity management
In September 2020, the IOOF Group completed a capital raising for the purpose of acquiring MLC Wealth. The
capital raising consisted of a fully underwritten institutional placement and accelerated non-renounceable
entitlement offer and a non-underwritten share purchase plan. Under these offers, the Group raised additional
capital of $1,043.9m, representing 298,248,329 ordinary shares and incurred transaction costs of $20.4m.
On 27 November 2020, the IOOF group entered into an additional accommodation agreement to provide an
additional $250m cash advance under the syndicated facility agreement (SFA) for the acquisition of MLC
Wealth. This facility has a 5-year repayment term from the SFA effective date. The amended SFA consists of
the following facilities:
$240m revolving cash advance facility with a 4-year repayment term from the SFA effective date.
$625m revolving cash advance facility with a 5-year repayment term from the SFA effective date.
Multi-option facility with a 3-year repayment term from the SFA effective date, comprising a contingent
liability facility.
On 31 May 2021, the IOOF Group issued $200m SLNs to fund the acquisition of MLC Wealth. Key terms are:
SLNs are unsecured subordinated debt obligations of IOOF.
1% per annum coupon payable semi-annually. Step up to 4% per annum if the noteholders request
redemption more than 42 months after the issue date and IOOF does not redeem.
5-year term with an early redemption start period of 42 months from completion (31 May 2021).
Equity linked redemption linked to any uplift in notional securities over a reference price (being a 15%
premium to the theoretical ex rights price for the equity offer) and subject to adjustment.
IOOF permitted to accelerate redemption after 3 years if the volume weighted average price is at least 150%
of the reference price or in case of certain tax changes. Holder permitted to accelerate redemption at any
time commencing 42 months after the issue date, subject to issuer consent, or upon change in control
(acquisition by a person of beneficial ownership of 50% or more of the ordinary voting power of outstanding
voting shares or delisting or 15 trading day suspension).
The net debt to equity ratio stood at 18.9% at 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: 24.8%) reflecting net borrowings
of $469.7m (30 June 2020: $430.9m), principally $476.0m under the SFA (30 June 2020: $460.0m).
Cash flow forecasting is conducted monthly, principally to ensure sufficient liquidity for future needs and to
monitor adherence to licence conditions, and stress testing of lending covenants is conducted when assessing
funding options for acquisition opportunities.

returning to the pre-COVID-19 series of events.
Increase in operating expenditure relates to one month of costs associated with MLC advisers ($12.7m).
Excluding the MLC adviser costs, operating expenditure has remained consistent year on year.

Net operating revenue decreased from the prior year due to slight reduction in margin and a reduction in
FUM. This was a direct result of the liquidation of the Platform cash management funds, which were then
invested in a Retail look-through agreement with an external party, in the best interest of members.
Increase in operating expenditure is due to increased governance driven by the implementation of the Office
of the Responsible Entity in mid FY20 and employee bonuses in the current year after bonuses were
significantly reduced in the pcp as a result of COVID-19 financial impacts.

Reduction in revenue driven by regulatory changes including the cessation of grandfathered commissions
and volume rebates from fund managers.
Reduction in other revenue is due to lower conference revenue as a result of conferences not returning to
the pre-COVID-19 series of events.
Reduction in operating expenditure is a result of a focus towards achieving break-even within this business.
Cost reductions are seen across most areas of operating expenditure, especially salaries, consultants,
conference expenses, travel and entertainment.

P&I contributed an additional $168.0m in net operating revenue for the full year of operations as compared
to the 5 months in the pcp. This results in approximately a 10% increase in net operating revenue on a run-
rate basis for the P&I segment driven by strong market performance in FY21.
Operating expenditure has increased by $86.6m representing a full year of operations. Operating
expenditure is favourable to the pcp by 2% on a run-rate basis as a result of lower project spend and savings
in property costs.

Risk management
The Board is responsible for establishing and overseeing the IOOF Risk Management Framework (RMF) and
has delegated authority for the oversight and monitoring of the Framework to the Group Risk and Compliance
Committee (GRCC) and the Executive team. The key pillars of the IOOF RMF include:
the IOOF Risk Management Policy (RMP). The RMP provides direction to ensure material risks which are
further defined in the Risk Management Strategies of the controlled entities are being consistently identified,
assessed and managed. The RMP includes a description of each material risk including key roles and
responsibilities for managing the risk, outlines the risk governance structure and promotes a proactive risk
culture, with reference to the relevant policies, standards and procedures;
the Risk Appetite Statement (RAS), which sets out the Board’s expectations regarding the degree of risk
that IOOF is prepared to accept in pursuing its business objectives. Each regulated entity Board within the
Group has its own RAS; and
a Three Lines of Defence Governance Model to govern risk management and compliance activities across
the Group. The Three Lines of Defence model is the foundation for effective risk management. The
overarching principle is that risk management capability must be embedded into the business to be effective.
During the 2021 financial year, IOOF has maintained its focus on the governance uplift across the Group which
includes the integration of the newly acquired businesses. Effort continues post MLC acquisition to identify
opportunities to improve efficiency and ensuring risk management resource adequacy across the organisation.
Emerging Risks
The risk environment is continually changing and we are therefore assessing key emerging risks to consider
their impact on the IOOF Group. Some emerging risks include:
Emerging risk
Our response to manage this risk
Integration of P&I and MLC businesses -
Successful integration of the P&I and MLC
businesses to realise the synergies and
create an efficient business for the future.
Failure to successfully integrate could give
rise
to
unnecessary
costs,
increased
complexity and regulatory burden and higher
risks.
The Chief Transformation Officer role has been created as a
direct report of the CEO, and the integrations will be managed
as one joint program of work with appropriate governance
structures.
Detailed Integration plan with sufficient resourcing assigned to
all business functions.
Volume and complexity of regulatory change
- IOOF Group is required to implement large
volumes of complex regulatory changes, at
times within relative short time frames.
Appointment of a Chief Transformation Officer and dedicated
team within ERC to oversee all regulatory change activities.
COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has continued throughout the period. There is still uncertainty on the likely duration
of the pandemic as well as the impact on the economy. For the IOOF Group, the impact is being able to
maintain its service standards to clients, while also supporting our employees during the various lockdowns in
each state. While there was a gradual return to the office during the second half of FY21, working from home
for our people remains a key part of our new way of working at IOOF.
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021

The IOOF Group manages exposure to risks in the course of conducting our everyday operations and
implementing our strategy. The Key Risk Categories below outline the material risks faced by the IOOF
Group. These include, but may not be limited to:
Key risk categories
Our response to manage this risk
Strategic and tactical
(i)
Competition
The risk that IOOF does not keep pace with developments in
the markets in which we operate may result in competitive
conditions adversely impacting the level of assets managed
and earnings available to us.
Continuously investing in client service,
product
design
and
stakeholder
relationships, among other improvements.
(ii)
Dependence on key personnel
The risk that IOOF’s continued ability to compete effectively is
impacted by our capacity to attract, retain and motivate our
people. The loss of key personnel without suitable
replacement could disrupt our operations in the short term.
Undertake succession planning and offer
competitive employment conditions and
benefits to manage this risk.
(iii)
Dependence on financial advisers
The success of IOOF's advice and platform business is
dependent on the quality of our relationships with financial
advisers and, in turn, the quality of their relationships with their
clients.
Monitor and, where necessary, enhance our
service levels, technological capability,
product offerings and professional training.
(iv)
Acquisitions
The risk that any acquired business is not effectively managed
which may negatively impact the potential benefits of the new
business and adversely affect the IOOF Group's financial
position.
We have a significant complement of people
experienced in acquisitions and specialist
advisers to support the assessment and
management
of
the
acquisition
and
implementation risks.
(v)
Environmental, social and governance (ESG)
ESG risks can have a material impact on our ability to deliver
sustainable long-term outcomes for our clients, investors and
the community.
To ensure we fulfil our purpose, we consider
a
broad
range
of
ESG
risks
and
opportunities.
Our
ESG
activities
are
discussed in the ESG section of the annual
report.
Governance
(vi)
Governance
The risk that the governance framework is not adequate to
manage conflicts of interest, member interests or our legal and
regulatory obligations in line with regulatory and community
expectations.
IOOF continues to strengthen the quality of
its
governance
frameworks.
This
is
supported by corporate structures with
independent
Boards
and
Committees
aligned with their regulatory obligations. The
Office of the Superannuation Trustee and
Office of the Responsible Entity aligned with
IOOF’s RMF’s three lines of defence model
govern risk management and compliance
activities across the Group.
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Operating and financial review
15
Key risk categories
Our response to manage this risk
Reputation
(vii) Brand and reputation
Actions which damage the IOOF Group's brand and reputation
may impact our ability to attract and retain the support of
clients, people, financial advisers, and employers, as well as
our future profitability and financial position.
We
have
controls,
processes
and
procedures in place to mitigate this risk. In
particular we have a Complaints policy and
procedure in place for our clients, and a
Whistleblower policy to protect our people.
We also proactively promote the value of our
services, products and community initiatives
and focus on building a ClientFirst culture.
Conduct
(viii) Misconduct
The risk of our conduct intentionally or unintentionally
delivering poor outcomes for stakeholders (including clients,
people and shareholders). It is about how we treat our
stakeholders (including fairness of outcomes) and whether our
products and services meet our stakeholders’ needs and
expectations.
Our management of conduct risk is
supported by the IOOF Group Code of
Conduct, which sets out the values of
professional and personal conduct which
apply to all our people. These include acting
within the law and in the best interests of our
members, clients, shareholders and the
IOOF Group at all times.
(ix)
Provision of investment advice
The IOOF Group’s financial advisers and authorised
representatives provide advice to clients and may be exposed
to regulatory action or litigation if the advice is judged to be
incorrect, if the authorised representative otherwise becomes
liable for client losses, and in certain other circumstances.
This risk is managed by having high
professional,
educational,
compliance,
assurance and training standards for our
advisers and authorised representatives.
The potential financial impact is mitigated by
appropriate levels of insurance cover. IOOF
also undertakes a rolling program of
compliance reviews of advisers.
Financial and liquidity
(x)
Interest rate and cash flow
This is the risk to the IOOF Group’s earnings and capital
arising from changes in market interest rates. Financial
instruments that may be impacted by interest rate risk include
cash and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit, loans and
borrowings. Short and long-term investment mixes and loans
to related entities are influenced by liquidity policy
requirements.
Interest rates (both charged and received)
are based on market rates and are closely
monitored by management. They are
primarily at variable rates of interest and may
expose the Group to cash flow interest rate
risk.
(xi)
Liquidity
Liquidity risk relates to the IOOF Group having insufficient
liquid assets to cover cash flow requirements.
We manage liquidity risk by maintaining
sufficient liquid assets and an ability to
access a committed line of credit. The
liquidity requirements of our licensed entities
are
regularly
reviewed
and
carefully
monitored in accordance with their licence
requirements.
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Operating and financial review
16
Key risk categories
Our response to manage this risk
Financial and liquidity (continued)
(xii) Financing
Financing risk refers to the IOOF Group’s inability to refinance
debt facilities or to secure new financing on satisfactory terms
which could adversely affect our financial performance and
prospects. To the extent that this occurs, we may not be able
to take advantage of acquisition and other growth
opportunities, develop new ideas or respond to competitive
pressures, which may have an adverse impact on our financial
position and performance.
This risk is minimised through oversight by a
dedicated Treasury function with established
policies and procedures which are subject to
continuous monitoring and review. Banking
covenants are regularly reviewed to ensure
any potential issues are identified and
mitigated to the extent necessary well in
advance.
Investment governance
(xiii) Changes in investment markets
The IOOF Group derives a significant proportion of its earnings
from fees and charges based on the level of funds under
management, administration and advice (FUMA). Among
other factors, the level of FUMA reflects the performance of
investment markets. Changes in domestic or global
investment market conditions could lead to a decline in FUMA,
adversely impacting the amount we earn in fees and charges,
as well as reduced client interest in our financial products and
services.
To manage this risk, we offer a range of
products and services suitable for different
investment
markets
and
establish
comprehensive
investment
governance
committees, policies and procedures that
are subject to continuous monitoring and
oversight.
Operational
(xiv) Operational
Operational risks may arise in the daily functioning of the IOOF
Group’s
businesses,
in
connection
with
investment
management, tax and financial advice, legal and regulatory
compliance, product commitments, process error, system
failure, failure of security and unit pricing errors, among other
functions.
This is managed through IOOF’s Risk
Management Framework which includes
systems, structures, policies, procedures,
and people to identify, measure, evaluate,
monitor, report, control and mitigate internal
and external risks.
(xv) Remediation activities
Remediation activities across various areas of the business -
references the timely, effective and accurate execution of
these remediation activities to ensure client detriment is
resolved, meet the requirements of regulators and mitigate the
risk of reputational damage.
To manage this risk, remediation exercises
are adequately resourced. Governance
structures are in place to consider and
manage the issues and risks of remediation
delivery. Regular updates are provided to
regulators.
(xvi) Information technology
The IOOF Group relies heavily on information technology (IT).
A significant or sustained failure in the core technology
systems could materially affect our operations, which could
impact our future profitability and financial position.
We have implemented a next-generation
firewall,
and
pursue
continuous
improvements to protect user devices and
impose segregation of duties between
technology environments. More broadly, we
apply controls (including disaster recovery
testing) and procedures which are subject to
continuous monitoring and oversight, while
ensuring there are experienced people and
specialist IT advisers.

Operational (continued)
(xvii) Cyber security
There is a risk of significant failure in the IOOF Group's
operations or material financial loss as a result of cyber-
attacks.
We have implemented measures and
controls
that
address
identification,
detection, monitoring and response in
relation to cyber threats. Cyber security
controls are aligned with those employed to
minimise IT risks.

Indemnification and insurance
Rule 84 of the IOOF Holdings Ltd Constitution requires the Company to indemnify to the extent permitted by
law, each Director and Secretary against liability incurred in, or arising out of the conduct of the business of
the Company or the discharge of the duties of the Director or Secretary. The Directors and Secretary named
in this Directors' Report have the benefit of this requirement, as do individuals who formerly held one of those
positions.
In accordance with this requirement the Company has entered into Deeds of Access, Indemnity and Insurance
(Deeds of Indemnity) with each Director and Secretary. During the financial year, the IOOF Group paid
insurance premiums to insure against amounts that the IOOF Group may be liable to pay the Directors and
Secretary pursuant to Rule 84. The insurance policy also insures the Directors and Secretary of the Company
and its controlled entities, and the general officers of each of the companies in the IOOF Group. Details of the
amount of the premium paid in respect of the insurance contract have not been disclosed as such disclosure
is prohibited under the terms of the contract.
The liabilities insured are legal costs that may be incurred in defending civil or criminal proceedings that may
be brought against the officers in their capacity as officers of entities in the IOOF Group and any other
payments arising from liabilities incurred by the officers in connection with such proceedings, other than where
such liabilities arise out of conduct involving a wilful breach of duty by the officers or the improper use by the
officers of their position or of information to gain advantage to themselves or someone else or to cause
detriment to the Company.
Environmental regulation
The IOOF Group is not subject to significant environmental regulation.

Letter from the People & Remuneration Committee Chair
Dear Shareholder
IOOF is pleased to present its Remuneration Report for 2021. The report is designed to provide shareholders
with an understanding of the Group’s remuneration principles, policies and programs and their link with the
Group’s strategy and financial performance.
The 2021 financial year has been truly transformational for IOOF with the successful completion on 31 May of
the MLC acquisition. This acquisition provides a step-change in scale and reach across our organisation. The
business also continued to implement significant changes across its advice and platforms businesses, and
consolidation of the ANZ P&I acquisition.
Through the integration with MLC, we have seen additions to the Executive Team: Garry Mulcahy, Chief Asset
Management Officer who joined with MLC at completion and Chris Weldon, Chief Transformation Officer who
stepped into this newly created role from within IOOF. We also welcomed our Chief Corporate Affairs and
Marketing Officer, Sawsan Howard who joined as an important member of the Executive Team in August. The
additions to the Executive Team and changes in Board composition across the Group provides strong business
and cultural foundations and the impetus for the organisation to move forward.
The impacts of COVID-19 pandemic continued to permeate through the year, requiring periods of remote
working and the continuing need to support our clients and people through challenging times. I am proud of
how our teams have seamlessly adapted and responded to the challenging and disruptive environment, and
in fact, found some new and better ways to work.
In response to COVID-19, the Chairman and CEO took a 20% reduction in base pay for 6 months from 1
August 2020. All other IOOF Holdings Directors, along with the Chief Financial Officer, took a 10% reduction
in base pay for the same period.
Evolving our Remuneration Framework
In 2021, we implemented our new executive incentive framework, the Executive Equity Plan (EEP). The plan,
which delivers incentives wholly in equity vesting over four years, closely aligns executives with shareholders
and encourages long-term sustainable decision making in the interests of shareholders. The incentive
framework balances financial and non-financial priorities aligned with key strategic value drivers of the
business, both short and long term, to enable enduring performance.
The new executive framework has been successful in driving strong alignment between the Executive Team
and supporting the cultural and remuneration principles it was designed to address:
supporting IOOF’s strategic, cultural and talent agendas including the “advice-led” strategy and ClientFirst
culture;
aligning with best practice and stakeholder expectations; and
considering pending regulatory developments.
Remuneration Governance
Our remuneration governance structures also evolved and strengthened through 2021. The Board,
Committees and Management all recognise the need for strong governance and linkages to risk in our
remuneration structures. We have taken steps forward this financial year to ensure these factors are more
meaningfully embedded in our practices and frameworks, which is outlined in detail in section 2 of this report.
This will continue to be a significant area of focus for IOOF to ensure we are proactively adapting our
remuneration approach to best practices and in preparation for the Financial Accountability Regime (FAR).

Executive Remuneration Outcomes
With the redesign of the executive framework having been undertaken, the new EEP took effect from 1 July
2020 for the 2020-2021 financial year. Performance against the measures established as part of the plan
reflect the significant year for the business in terms of its transformation. This is outlined in section 1 of this
report. Executive performance against the EEP follows two years of STIs not being awarded for the current
Executive Team, with the exception of the Chief Investment Officer who maintained a portion of his
remuneration as STI and the Chief Asset Management Officer (as explained in section 3 of this Report). The
EEP is a prospective plan, with equity applied at the commencement of the four-year performance period,
meaning the current 20/21 plan will not vest until 2024.
In relation to Non-Executive Director (NED) remuneration, no increases were made to NED fees for the fifth
year in a row. A review of the NED remuneration framework is underway for financial year 2022.
A key strength of IOOF is our culture and our people are the centrepiece of this across all levels, including key
management personnel. Their dedication, commitment and talent are reflected in the operational and financial
achievements in FY2021, and the foundations that have been laid for future sustainable growth in shareholder
value. On behalf of the Board, I thank you for your support and feedback, and commend this report to you.
Yours sincerely

1. Executive Remuneration outcomes for the 2021 financial
year
The new 2021 remuneration framework
As outlined in last year’s report, a full review of the remuneration framework by the Group People &
Remuneration Committee was undertaken last financial year, with independent recommendations provided by
KPMG 3dc (executive remuneration and performance advisory). The People & Remuneration Committee
approved a redesign of the executive remuneration framework, with the new incentive framework, called the
Executive Equity Plan (EEP), fully implemented for first time for the 2021 financial year.
The EEP framework has replaced the LTI and STI programs for the CEO, Key Management Personnel (KMP)
and the remaining Executive Team. The STI is removed under the framework except for the Chief Investment
Officer and Chief Asset Management Officer who retain short term incentives which will closely tie a portion of
variable remuneration to the performance of IOOF’s investment and asset management portfolios.
The EEP is delivered wholly in equity to closely align Executives with shareholders and encourage long-term
sustainable decision making in the interests of shareholders.
The EEP framework encompasses financial and non-financial measures. The EEP comprises:
A four-year performance measure (40%) This will be based on Relative Total Shareholder Return
(TSR), assessed at the end of the four year performance period.
Annual performance measures amounts not released until the end of the four-year
performance period (60%) Targets are set and assessed annually against five key areas, one of
which is financial and four non-financial metrics. The areas assessed, which align with the key strategic
drivers of the business, are:
o
Financial (10%)
o
Non-financial measures (50%) comprised of:
Environment, Social & Governance (ESG) (10%)
Client (10%)
People (10%)
Individual, role specific measures (20%)
The first allocation of EEP rights relating to the 2021 financial year was granted post the release of IOOF’s full-
year results in 2020. The annual performance measures set for the 2021 financial year for the CEO and
Executives were assessed at the end of the financial year (as outlined in the table on the following page) but
will not be eligible for release until 30 June 2024.

2. Remuneration governance
Reshaping the People & Remuneration Committee
From 4 May 2021, the Remuneration Committee was renamed the People & Remuneration Committee to
reflect its role in broader People matters such as talent and succession and diversity and inclusion, in addition
to remuneration. The Group People & Remuneration committee is the governing body for developing,
monitoring and assessing the remuneration strategy, policies and practices across IOOF and ensuring overall
pay equity. The role of the Group People & Remuneration Committee is to review, challenge, assess and as
appropriate, endorse the recommendations made by management for Board approval. It oversees the IOOF
remuneration framework and assists the Board to ensure that IOOF’s remuneration strategy and policy are
appropriate and effective.
The People & Remuneration Committee met formally six times during the 2021 financial year with the following
members (as at 30 June 2021). John Selak (Chair), Allan Griffiths, Elizabeth Flynn, Andrew Bloore and
Michelle Somerville. This included a joint meeting with the Risk & Compliance and Audit committees as outlined
below.
Strengthening Risk in Performance & Remuneration Governance
To continue our uplifting governance around our performance and remuneration practices, this year we
introduced a joint meeting of the People & Remuneration, Risk & Compliance and Audit committees in May
2021. This meeting was initiated as part of the end of year performance and remuneration assessment process
to ensure a heightened focus on risk in outcomes for the CEO, Senior Executives, Responsible Persons and
Responsible Managers. This meeting provided the opportunity for the Committees to review and discuss
relevant risk and audit matters that may warrant consideration in the People & Remuneration Committee’s
determination of remuneration outcomes, including any in-year malus adjustments. Feedback from across
subsidiary boards and committees was sought as input into the assessment of these key people.

Risk & Remuneration Governance
Incidents, breaches of policy and misconduct issues are regularly reported to Senior Executives. The Chief
Risk Officer annually reports to the Joint People & Remuneration, Risk & Compliance and Audit Committees
on the outcomes from the consequence management process and confirms that these matters have been
considered in determining performance and remuneration outcomes where appropriate.

Independent Remuneration Consultants
The People & Remuneration Committee may engage
external advisers to provide information to assist the
Committee in making remuneration decisions.
Risk and Remuneration
Our Remuneration Framework has continued to evolve over the past year, enabling us to achieve better
alignment between risk, performance and remuneration and ensure we are aligned to regulator and market
expectations.
The Board continues to oversee enhancements to IOOF’s management of risk and remuneration, reinforcing
the expectations of risk outcomes and behaviours in support of a positive risk culture through IOOF’s practices
and frameworks. This year, this included the introduction of the Exercise of Discretion in Remuneration
Decision Making Policy, to guide the board in the application of discretion to variable remuneration and the
Shareholding Policy (MSR), which outlines shareholding expectations of Executives.
Risk also plays a key role in performance and remuneration for our broader employee workforce in addition to
executives, with financial year outcomes and reward being subject to meeting compliance expectations. Less
than 1% of the total workforce failed to meet these risk and compliance gateways and as a result, no variable
reward was awarded to these individuals.
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021

Embedding Risk in our Performance and Reward framework
Risk Culture
The IOOF risk culture is a key business driver and
seeks to create an environment where employees
have a clear understanding of their responsibilities
and accountabilities for managing risk. Employees
are empowered to ask questions, report concerns,
seek relevant information, challenge assumptions
and take action when issues are identified as part of
everyday work activities.
Risk culture is underpinned by the new cultural
principles, which are embedded in our business
processes, including the performance framework.
Alignment of risk to remuneration outcomes
The IOOF Group People & Remuneration Policy is
designed to encourage and incentivise employees
to act responsibly and with integrity in a manner
consistent with the Policy.
Reporting is provided to the Board to support
oversight of remuneration and risk consequences to
assist in informing performance and remuneration
reviews.
Risk in the performance review process
Risk assessments are increasingly a key
consideration for the annual performance
assessment process of the CEO and Senior
Executives. As well as the commencement of a joint
committee made up of the People & Remuneration,
Risk & Compliance and Audit committees to ensure
a clear link between risk, performance and
remuneration outcomes, it is also supported by
reporting and governance structures to ensure a
holistic view of risk.
Malus/clawback
Malus is the ability to reduce (including to zero) a
variable remuneration award/or lapse or postpone
vesting of variable remuneration awards granted,
but not vested.
Guidance and enhanced processes to support the
application of malus have been implemented across
IOOF during the 2021 financial year.
Clawback will also apply to all CEO and Senior
Executives variable remuneration from 2021
financial year.
People & Remuneration Committee
The Committee reviews and makes recommendations to the Board on the remuneration structure and policies
applicable to the KMP and NEDs of the IOOF Group, as well as the wider IOOF employee population.
The Committee is comprised solely of NEDs, all of whom are independent. The members of the Committee
for the year ended 30 June 2021 were J Selak – Chair (full year), A Griffiths (full year), E Flynn (full year), A
Bloore (full year), and M Somerville (12 May 2021 - present).
The Board considers that the members of the Committee provide an appropriate mix of skills to undertake its
terms of reference, having regard to their qualifications, knowledge of the financial services industry and
experience in business management.
People & Remuneration Committee Charter
The responsibilities of the People & Remuneration Committee are outlined in its Charter and reviewed
annually. The Charter is available on the Corporate Governance page of the Company’s website at

Prior Year LTI
For performance rights plans pre-dating the EEP, vesting of 50% of performance rights is subject to serving a
three year employment period commencing on the date of grant. 50% of the grant is subject to a Total

4. Non-Executive Director remuneration
NEDs receive a fixed fee including superannuation for being a Director of the Board, with an additional fee for
the Chairman of the Board. No additional fees are paid for service on Board Committees or subsidiary company
Boards.
In setting fees, the Board considers general industry practice; best principles of corporate governance; the
responsibilities and risks attached to the NED role; the time commitment expected of NEDs on Group and
Company matters; and fees paid to NEDs of comparable companies.
In order to ensure NED independence and impartiality, fees are not linked to Company performance and NEDs
are not eligible to participate in any of the Group's incentive arrangements.
The Board has reviewed NED fees for 2021 and, for the fifth year, has determined not to increase their fees.
A review of NED’s fees is being undertaken in FY22.

Independent Auditor’s Report
To the shareholders of IOOF Holdings Ltd

Key Audit Matters
The Key Audit Matters we identified are:
• Valuation of Goodwill and Indefinite life
intangible assets
• Provision for client remediation and
related costs
• Information technology related controls
• Accounting for business combinations
Key Audit Matters are those matters that, in our professional
judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the
Financial Report of the current period.
These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of
the Financial Report as a whole, and in forming our opinion
thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these
matters.
Valuation of Goodwill and Indefinite life Intangible Assets - $2,137.9 million and $51.5 million
Refer to Note 4-3 Goodwill and 4-2 Intangible Assets to the Financial Report
The key audit matter
How the matter was addressed in our audit
A key audit matter for us was the Group’s annual
testing of goodwill and indefinite life intangible
assets for impairment, given the size and judgement
of the balance (being 37% and 0.9% of total assets
respectively). We focused on the significant
forward-looking assumptions the Group applied in
their value in use models, including:
•
Forecast operating cash flows, growth rates and
terminal growth rates – the Group has
experienced reduced revenue in the current
year, as a result of the termination of a third
platform relationship and the cessation of
grandfathered revenue. These conditions
increase the possibility of goodwill and
indefinite life intangible assets being impaired,
plus the risk of inaccurate forecasts or a wider
range of possible outcomes for us to consider.
•
Discount rate – this is complicated in nature
and varies according to the conditions and
environment the specific Cash Generating Unit
(CGU)/intangible is subject to from time to time
as well as the approach to incorporating risks
into the cash flows or discount rates.
The Group uses complex models to perform their
annual testing of goodwill and indefinite life
intangibles for impairment. The models are largely
manually developed, adjusted for historical
performance, and use a range of internal and
external sources as inputs to the assumptions.
Complex modelling, using forward-looking
Working with our valuation specialists, our procedures
included:
•
We considered the appropriateness of the value in
use method applied by the Group to perform the
test of goodwill and indefinite life intangibles
impairment against the requirements of the
accounting standards.
•
We assessed the integrity of the value in use
models used, including the accuracy of the
underlying calculation formulas.
•
We compared forecast cash flows contained in
value in use models to approved forecasts.
•
We assessed the accuracy of previous Group
forecasts to inform our evaluation of forecasts
incorporated in the models.
•
We used our knowledge of the Group, its past
performance, business and customers, and our
industry experience to challenge the Group’s
forecast cash flows. We compared key events to
the approved plan and strategy. We compared
forecast growth rates and terminal growth rates to
published studies of industry trends and
expectations and evaluated differences for the
Group’s operations.
•
We assessed the Group’s determination of CGU
assets for consistency with the assumptions used
in the forecast cash flows and the requirements of
the accounting standards.
46
assumptions, tends to be prone to greater risk for
potential bias, error and inconsistent application.
These conditions necessitate additional scrutiny by
us, in particular to address the objectivity of sources
used for assumptions, and their consistent
application.
We involved valuation specialists to supplement our
senior audit team members in assessing this key
audit matter.
In addition to the above, the Group recorded an
impairment charge of $199.9 million against
goodwill. This further increased our audit effort in
this key audit area.
•
We assessed the Group’s allocation of corporate
assets and costs to CGUs for reasonableness and
consistency based on the requirements of the
accounting standards.
•
We independently developed a discount rate range
using publicly available data for comparable
entities, adjusted by risk factors specific to the
Group’s CGUs and the industry they operate in.
•
We considered the sensitivity of the models by
varying key assumptions, such as forecast growth
rates and discount rates, within a reasonably
possible range. We considered key assumptions
when performing the sensitivity analysis and what
the Group consider to be reasonably possible. We
did this to identify those CGUs at higher risk of
impairment and to focus our further procedures.
•
We recalculated the impairment charge against the
recorded amount disclosed.
•
We assessed the disclosures in the financial report
using our understanding obtained from our testing,
discussions with management and the Board and
against the requirements of the accounting
standards.
Provisions for client remediation and related costs - $658.9 million
Refer to Note 4-4 Provisions to the Financial Report
The key audit matter
How the matter was addressed in our audit
The provisions for client remediation and related
costs is a Key Audit Matter due to the judgments
required by us in assessing the Group’s
determination of:
•
The existence of a present legal or constructive
obligation as a basis for recognition of a
provision against the criteria in the accounting
standards.
•
Reliable estimates of amounts which may be
paid arising from the present obligation,
including estimates of the number of affected
customers, expected average remediation
payments and related costs.
Working with our regulatory specialists, our procedures
included:
•
We obtained an understanding of the Group’s
process for identifying and assessing the potential
impact of the ongoing reviews into client
remediation activities.
•
We assessed the integrity of the model used,
including the accuracy of the underlying
calculation formulas.
•
We inquired with the Group regarding ongoing
reviews into other remediation activities.
•
We read the minutes and other relevant
documentation of the Company’s Board of
Directors, Board Committees, various management
47
•
The potential for legal proceedings and external
reviews leading to a wider range of estimation
outcomes for us to consider.
The Group uses a complex model to estimate the
amount which may be paid in future periods. The
model is manually developed and uses a range of
internal and external sources as inputs to the
assumptions. Complex modelling, using forward-
looking assumptions, tends to be prone to greater
risk for potential bias, error and inconsistent
application. These conditions necessitate additional
scrutiny by us, to address the objectivity of sources
used for assumptions, and their consistent
application.
We involved regulatory specialists to supplement
our senior audit team members in assessing this key
audit matter.
committees, and attended the Company’s Audit
Committee and Risk and Compliance Committee
meetings.
•
We inspected correspondence with regulatory
bodies and reports from management’s experts to
the Group.
•
We assessed the scope, objectivity and
competency of management’s experts engaged by
the Group.
•
We challenged the Group’s basis for recognition of
a provision and associated costs against the
requirements of the accounting standards. We did
this by understanding the provisioning
methodologies and challenging underlying
assumptions including expected average
remediation payments and related costs.
•
We tested a sample of customer files to assess the
accuracy of the Group’s expected number of
affected customers included in the provisions and
where required detriment calculations.
•
We assessed the appropriateness of the Group’s
conclusions against the requirements of the
accounting standards where estimates were
unable to be reliably made for a provision to be
recognised.
•
We assessed the disclosures in the financial report
using our understanding obtained from our testing,
discussions with management and the Board and
against the requirements of the accounting
standards.
Information Technology related controls
The key audit matter
How the matter was addressed in our audit
The Information Technology (IT) related controls are
a key audit matter as the Group’s key financial
accounting and reporting processes are highly
dependent on the automated controls over the
Group’s IT systems. There is a risk that gaps in the
change management, segregation of duties or user
access management controls (in relation to key
financial accounting and reporting systems) may
undermine our ability to place some reliance
thereon in our audit. Our audit approach could
significantly differ depending on the effective
operations of the Group’s IT controls.
Working with our IT specialists we challenged the
design of General IT controls and sample tested the
operation of key controls (in relation to financial
accounting and reporting systems) including:
•
Change management control operation: Inspected
the Group’s change management policies and for a
sample of system changes during the year, checked
the consistency of the system changes to the
Group’s policy.
48
We involved IT specialists to supplement our senior
audit team members in assessing this key audit
matter.
•
Segregation of duties control operation: Sample
tested key automated controls designed to enforce
segregation of duties.
•
User access management controls operation: We
assessed the Group’s evaluation of the user access
rights, including privileged user access rights
granted to application systems. We checked for
evidence of resolution of exceptions. We also
assessed the operating effectiveness of
management approval controls over the granting
and removal of access rights, including privileged
access rights.
Accounting for Business Combinations
Refer to Note 6-4 Acquisition of subsidiary to the Financial Report
The key audit matter
How the matter was addressed in our audit
The Group completed the acquisition of National
Australia Bank’s wealth management business (MLC
Wealth) for a total consideration of $1,440 million.
The purchase price accounting for this acquisition
was provisional at the date of authorisation of the
financial report.
In addition, the Group finalised the accounting for
the previous year’s acquisition of ANZ’s Pension and
Investments business (Ex-ANZ Wealth).
We determined that the accounting for business
combinations was a key audit matter due to the
financial significance of the purchase price
considerations, net assets acquired and resultant
goodwill arising on the acquisitions, as well as the
judgement involved in the preliminary Purchase
price allocation (“PPA”) calculations.
Our procedures in relation to the acquisition of MLC
Wealth included:
•
We inspected the sale and purchase agreement
(“SPA”) between the relevant parties to assess
whether the basis and composition of the
purchase consideration in the executed contracts
were consistent with the Group’s accounting for
the acquisition.
•
We tested the initial consideration paid for the
acquisition to the bank statements and SPA and
assessed the impact of funding the acquisition on
the Group’s compliance with covenants.
•
We assessed the Group’s provisional estimate of
the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired
including the Group’s basis for determination of
goodwill.
•
We assessed the business combination disclosures
in the financial report using our understanding
obtained from our testing, discussions with
management and the Board and against the
requirements of the accounting standards.
Working with our valuation specialists, for the Ex- ANZ
Wealth acquisition, which was finalised in the current
year, we performed the following procedures:
49
•
Agreed the fair value of assets and liabilities
acquired to valuation reports prepared by the
Group’s valuation expert.
•
Assessed the valuation of customer relationship
intangible assets recognised as part of the PPA
calculations.
•
Assessed the mathematical accuracy of the
Group’s calculation of the resulting goodwill arising
on the PPA calculations.
•
We assessed whether the PPA disclosures in the
financial statements were complete and accurate,
and in line with our understanding of the business.
Other Information
Other Information is financial and non-financial information in IOOF Holdings Ltd’s annual reporting which is
provided in addition to the Financial Report and the Auditor’s Report. The Directors are responsible for the
Other Information.
The Other Information we obtained prior to the date of this Auditor’s Report was the Directors’ Report and the
Remuneration Report. The remaining other information is expected to include: About IOOF, Our Diversified
Business Model, Chairman’s Commentary, CEO and Managing Directors Commentary, 2021 Results At A
Glance, 2021 Strategic Priorities, Environmental, Social & Governance Report, IOOF Foundation and

Our opinion on the Financial Report does not cover the Other Information and, accordingly, we do not and will
not express an audit opinion or any form of assurance conclusion thereon, with the exception of the
Remuneration Report and our related assurance opinion.
In connection with our audit of the Financial Report, our responsibility is to read the Other Information. In
doing so, we consider whether the Other Information is materially inconsistent with the Financial Report or our
knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report
The Directors are responsible for:
• preparing the Financial Report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting
Standards and the Corporations Act 2001
• implementing necessary internal control to enable the preparation of a Financial Report that gives a
true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error
• assessing the Group and Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and whether the use of the
going concern basis of accounting is appropriate. This includes disclosing, as applicable, matters
related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless they either intend to
liquidate the Group and Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report
Our objective is:
• to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Financial Report as a whole is free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and
• to issue an Auditor’s Report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. They are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate,
they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the
Financial Report.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report is located at the Auditing and
Assurance Standards Board website at: https://www.auasb.gov.au/admin/file/content102/c3/ar1_2020.pdf.
This description forms part of our Auditor’s Report.

IOOF Holdings Ltd (the "Company" or "Parent") is a listed public company incorporated in Australia. The IOOF
Group comprises the Company and its subsidiaries, and the consolidated Group’s interest in associates.
Section 1 - Financial instruments and risk management
The IOOF Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial and non-financial risks. Financial risks include:
market risks (including price risk, currency risk and cash flow and interest rate risk), credit risk, statutory fund
risk and liquidity risk. The nature of the financial risk exposures arising from financial instruments, the
objectives, policies and processes for managing these risks, and the methods used to measure them are
detailed below. Key non-financial exposures, such as operational risk and a failure to meet regulatory
compliance obligations, are discussed in detail in the Operating and Financial Review included within the
Directors’ Report.
1-1 Risk Management
IOOF Risk Management Framework
Risk is defined as the chance of an event occurring that will have an impact on the strategic or business
objectives of the IOOF Group, including a failure to realise opportunities. The IOOF Group's risk management
process involves the identification of material risks, assessment of consequence and likelihood,
implementation of controls to manage risks, and continuous monitoring and improvement of the procedures in
place.
The IOOF Group's objective is to satisfactorily manage its risks in line with the IOOF Group's Risk Management
Policy set by the Board, and this aligns to International Standard ISO 31000. The IOOF Group's Risk
Management Framework manages the risks faced by the IOOF Group, with approaches varying depending
on the nature of the risk, through the risk management policies, Risk Appetite Statement, and tolerances set,
approved, and monitored by the Board. The IOOF Group maintains a framework to ensure regulatory
compliance obligations are managed in accordance with Australian Standard 3806 Compliance Programs. The
IOOF Group's exposure to all material risks is monitored by the Enterprise Risk and Compliance Team and
this exposure, and emerging risks, are regularly reported to the Risk and Compliance Committee, and the
Board.
The IOOF Group's income and operating cash flows are indirectly impacted by changing market conditions.
Its exposure is through the impact of market changes on the level of funds under management and
administration, and consequently management fee and service fee revenue. Information has been provided
below only on the direct impact of changing market conditions to the IOOF Group’s income and operating cash
flows.
Liquidity risk relates to the IOOF Group having insufficient liquid assets to cover cash flow requirements. The
Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient liquid assets and an ability to access a committed line
of credit. The liquidity requirements for the Group’s licensed entities are regularly reviewed and carefully
monitored in accordance with their licence requirements.
Management continues to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to the business environment
including ongoing assessment of market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk associated with the business.

Impact of COVID-19 on financial reporting
In preparing the financial report the Group has considered the ongoing impact of COVID‐19 in its adoption of
significant assumptions and market inputs used in:
valuing the Group’s financial instruments;
preparing disclosures for the fair value of financial assets and liabilities and financial risk management.
The Group’s financial instruments include fixed income securities measured at fair value through profit and
loss and values may have been impacted by a variety of factors arising from changed business conditions. As
a general principle, quoted prices in active markets provide the best available evidence of fair value. The
Group’s financial instruments are valued using directly observable inputs as at the reporting date and these
are considered to be the most reliable and appropriate evidence of fair value.
We have reviewed the appropriateness of inputs to the valuation of financial instruments and the disclosures
for the fair value of financial instruments.
Non-financial risks emerging from global movement restrictions including remote working for staff,
counterparties and service providers have been identified, assessed, managed and governed through timely
application of the Company's risk management policies.
Management has determined that there is no material uncertainty that casts doubt on the Group's ability to
continue as a going concern.
Financial risk
The financial risk management objectives, policies and processes and the quantitative data about the exposure
to risk at the reporting date, as set out in the remainder of this note, includes the benefit funds and the controlled
trusts. The risks associated with financial instruments held by the benefit funds and controlled trusts are borne
by the policyholders and members of those funds and trusts, and not the shareholders of the IOOF Group.
There is no direct impact on the net profit or the equity of the IOOF Group as a consequence of changes in
markets as they apply to financial instruments held by those funds and trusts at the reporting date. Further
information in relation to the benefit funds is included in Section 5 Statutory funds.
Similarly, the objectives, policies and processes for managing the risks of the IOOF Group are separate and
distinct from those for the benefit funds and trusts. The funds and trusts are managed under extensive
regulatory requirements, and in accordance with specific investment guidelines, risk management strategies,
risk management plans, and product disclosure statements.
Information in relation to financial risks associated with the benefit funds and controlled trusts is available in
their Product Disclosure Statements and the individual annual financial reports of those trusts.
Further information in relation to the Australian Accounting Standards requirement to consolidate the benefit
funds and controlled trusts in the consolidated financial statements of the IOOF Group is available in Note 7-
3(b) Basis of consolidation.

a
Market risk
i
Price risk
Price risk is the risk that the fair value or future earnings of a financial instrument will fluctuate
because of changes in market prices (other than from interest rate risk or currency risk, as
described later). The financial instruments managed by the IOOF Group that are impacted by price
risk consist of investment units held in trusts, financial instruments measured at fair value through
profit or loss (FVTPL) and financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive
income (FVOCI).
Financial instruments measured at fair value are exposed to price risk as the market price
fluctuates. The price risk associated with the units held in trusts is that the fair value of those units
will fluctuate with movements in the redemption value of those units, which in turn is based on the
fair value of the underlying assets held by the trusts.
IOOF Group sensitivity
At 30 June 2021, had the price of the units or underlying equity exposure held by the IOOF Group
in financial instruments measured at FVTPL increased/decreased by 5% (2020: 5%) with all other
variables held constant, gains / losses recorded through profit or loss would increase / decrease
by $37.9m (2020: $32.4m), and financial assets at FVOCI reserves would increase / decrease by
$0.3m (2020: $4.9m).
ii
Currency risk
The IOOF Group's exposure to foreign exchange risk in relation to the financial instruments of its
foreign activities is immaterial.
iii
Cash flow and interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk to the IOOF Group’s earnings and capital arising from changes in market
interest rates. The financial instruments held that are impacted by interest rate risk consist of
interest-bearing financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss and borrowings.
Short and long-term investments and loans to related entities are influenced by liquidity policy
requirements. Interest rates (both charged and received) are based on market rates and are closely
monitored by management. They are primarily at variable rates of interest and expose the IOOF
Group to cash flow interest rate risk.
Management regularly assesses the appropriateness of the investment of surplus funds with the
objective of maximising returns.
IOOF Group sensitivity
For interest-bearing financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss, a +/- 50 basis
points change in the interest rate at the reporting date would have decreased/increased post tax
profit by $2.8m (2020: nil), with all other variables held constant. Equity would have been
lower/higher by the same amount.
At 30 June 2021, if interest rates on borrowings had changed by +/- 50 basis points (2020: +/- 50
basis points) from the year-end rates with all other variables held constant, post tax profit for the
year would have increased/decreased by $1.9m (2020: $1.6m). Equity would have been
higher/lower by the same amount.

Notes to the financial statements

b
Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will fail to meet its contractual obligations resulting in
financial loss to the IOOF Group. Credit risk arises for the IOOF Group from cash, debt note, financial
assets at fair value through profit or loss, receivables and loans.
The IOOF Group mitigates its credit risk by ensuring cash deposits are held with high credit quality
financial institutions and other highly liquid investments are held with trusts operated by the IOOF
Group. Where investments are held in units in a trust operated by the IOOF Group, that trust is subject
to the rules of the trust deed and the investment in underlying assets is subject to asset allocation
guidelines.
Receivables consist of management fees receivable, service fees receivable and other amounts
receivable from related parties. These counterparties generally do not have an independent credit
rating, and the IOOF Group assesses the credit quality of the debtor taking into account its financial
position, past experience with the debtor, and other available credit risk information. In relation to
management fees receivable, the IOOF Group is contractually entitled to deduct such fees from
investors’ account balances, in accordance with the Product Disclosure Statements, and pass the fees
to the Responsible Entity or Trustee. Due to this pass-through process the embedded credit risk is
considered minimal. Other receivables are regularly monitored by line management.
The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of the financial assets
as summarised in the table included in this note below. The IOOF Group does not hold any significant
collateral as security over its receivables and loans, apart from its recourse to certain shares in
subsidiaries in relation to loans to executives of subsidiaries.
Expected credit loss assessment
As at 30 June 2021, $10.6m trade receivables of the IOOF Group were past due but not impaired
(2020: $9.8m). The amount of the impairment provision was $0.4m (2020: $0.4m).
Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. The IOOF Group recognises loss
allowances for expected credit losses on financial assets measured at amortised cost. When
determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial
recognition and when estimating expected credit losses, the IOOF Group considers reasonable and
supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both
quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the IOOF Group’s historical experience
and informed credit assessment and including forward-looking information.
The IOOF Group considers a financial asset to be in default when the borrower is unlikely to pay its
credit obligations to the IOOF Group in full, without recourse by the IOOF Group to actions such as
realising security, or the financial asset is more than 90 days past due. The maximum period
considered when estimating expected credit losses is the maximum contractual period over which the
IOOF Group is exposed to the credit risk.
Expected credit losses are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured
as the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the entity
in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the IOOF Group expects to receive). Expected
credit losses are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset. Loss allowances for
financial assets measured at amortised cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the
assets.

Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
61
Impaired receivables
The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss within other expenses. When a trade
receivable for which an impairment allowance has been recognised becomes uncollectible in a
subsequent year, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts
previously written off are credited against other expenses in profit or loss.

Statutory Fund Risk
Financial risks are monitored and controlled by selecting appropriate assets to back policy liabilities.
The assets are regularly monitored by the Investment Management Committee to ensure there are no
material exposures and that liability mismatching issues and other risks such as liquidity risk and credit
risk are maintained within acceptable limits. The Investment Management Committee is chaired by an
independent expert and its membership is drawn from appropriately skilled senior management. There
are two Non-Executive Directors on this Committee.
The IOOF Group's friendly society operations are subject to regulatory capital requirements which
prescribe the amount of capital to be held depending on the type, quality and concentration of
investments held. Procedures are in place to monitor compliance with these requirements. Refer to
Section 5 - Statutory funds for further details.
These funds are not available to shareholders. Balances relating to statutory funds in the contractual
maturity table below are disclosed inclusive of amounts collected/receivable from or paid/payable to
IOOF Group entities.

d
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk relates to the IOOF Group having insufficient liquid assets to cover current liabilities and
unforeseen expenses. The IOOF Group maintains a prudent approach to managing liquidity risk
exposure by maintaining sufficient liquid assets and an ability to access a committed line of credit. It is
managed by continuously monitoring actual and forecast cash flows and by matching the maturity
profiles of financial assets and liabilities. Temporary surplus funds are invested in highly liquid, low risk
financial assets.
The IOOF Group had access to undrawn bank borrowing facilities at the balance date, on the terms
described and disclosed in note 3-2 Borrowings and lease liabilities. The liquidity requirements for
licensed entities in the IOOF Group are regularly reviewed and carefully monitored in accordance with
those licence requirements. The IOOF Group continuously monitors actual and forecast financial
results to determine compliance with banking covenants.

Accounting policies and fair value estimation
The fair values of financial assets and liabilities are equal to the carrying amounts shown in the
statement of financial position.
Offsetting assets and liabilities
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial
position when, and only when, the IOOF Group has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends
either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Financial assets
The IOOF Group initially recognises loans and receivables and deposits on the date that they are
originated. All other financial assets (including assets designated at fair value through profit or loss)
are recognised initially on the date at which the IOOF Group becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument.
The IOOF Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the
asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a
transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are
transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the IOOF Group
is recognised as a separate asset or liability.
The IOOF Group has the following financial assets:
cash;
financial assets at fair value through profit or loss;
financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income; and
loans and receivables.
Cash
Cash includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly
liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known
amounts of cash.
Restricted ORFR cash relates to cash for the operating risk financial reserves acquired with the ex-
ANZ P&I and MLC Wealth acquisitions. This cash is not available to shareholders.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) include derivative assets (futures, interest
rate derivatives and foreign exchange rate derivatives), investments in fixed income and investments
in unlisted unit trusts. A financial asset is classified as FVTPL if the associated cash flows are not solely
payments of principal and interest. Financial assets at FVTPL also include financial assets acquired
principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term or managed as part of a portfolio
where there is evidence of short-term profit taking.
Upon initial recognition, attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss when incurred.
Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognised in profit or
loss.
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
66
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the
reporting date. The quoted market price used for financial assets is the closing price.
For investments in fixed income and derivative assets where no quoted prices in an active market exist,
valuation techniques using observable market inputs for financial assets with similar credit risk, maturity
and yield characteristics are used.
Units in unlisted trusts are measured at the redemption price.
Equity investments at fair value through other comprehensive income
Equity investments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) are non-derivative
assets comprising principally marketable equity securities that are either designated in this category or
are not classified in any of the other categories of financial instruments.
Equity investments at FVOCI are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable
transaction costs, and are revalued through other comprehensive income (OCI) each reporting period.
Dividends are recognised in profit or loss unless it clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of
the investment. Other net gains and losses are recognised in OCI and are never reclassified to profit
or loss.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are
not quoted on an active market. They arise when the IOOF Group provides money, assets, or services
directly to a debtor with no intention of selling the receivable. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans
and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method if it is held to collect
contractual cash flows and its contractual terms give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Certificates of deposit
Certificates of deposit held during the year include deposits with original maturities of more than three
months.
Financial liabilities
The IOOF Group initially recognises financial liabilities on the date at which the IOOF Group becomes
a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The IOOF Group derecognises a financial
liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expire.
The IOOF Group has the following financial liabilities:
payables;
borrowings and lease liabilities;
financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL); and
other financial liabilities.
Other than financial liabilities at FVTPL, financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value plus any
directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition these financial liabilities are
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
67
Payables
The carrying value of payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term
nature.
Borrowings and lease liabilities
Borrowings and lease liabilities are further explained in note 3-2 Borrowings and lease liabilities.
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
Financial liabilities at FVTPL include interest rate and foreign exchange rate derivatives, issued
investment protection derivatives and a compound embedded derivative. The IOOF Group uses
valuation techniques to estimate the fair value of financial liabilities where no quoted prices in an active
market exist.
Issued investment protection derivatives are term-based investment protection products issued by an
IOOF Group company. These products provide protection to investors over the investors’ capital or a
minimum level of income each year for a term of 10 or 20 years. This is further discussed in note 1-2
Financial instruments and note 3-1 Capital management.
The compound embedded derivative is associated with the Subordinated Loan Notes and is discussed
in detail in note 3-2 Borrowings and lease liabilities. Its fair value is determined using a Monte-Carlo
simulation to simulate different scenarios of the underlying equity prices.
Contingent consideration
The contingent consideration amounts payable can rise and fall depending on performance hurdles
achieved during the deferral period specific to each agreement which may include revenue targets,
gross margin targets and/or Funds Under Management, Administration, Advice and Supervision
(FUMAS) retention requirements.
Where contingent consideration is due for payment after 12 months, the estimated amounts payable
are discounted. Assumptions used include pre-tax discount rates in the range of 3-4% which were
based on market interest rates upon acquisition of related intangibles.
Assets and liabilities relating to statutory funds
Assets held in the Statutory Funds (including the Benefit Funds) are subject to the distribution and
transfer restrictions and other requirements of the Life Insurance Act 1995. Monies held in the benefit
funds and controlled trusts are held for the benefit of the members of those funds, and are subject to
the constitution and rules of those funds.
Accordingly, with the exception of permitted profit distributions, the investments held in the statutory
funds are not available for use by other parties of the IOOF Group.
Assets relating to statutory funds
The IOOF Group has determined that all financial assets held within its reported statutory funds
(including the benefit funds which are treated as statutory funds) represent the assets backing policy
liabilities and are measured at fair value through profit or loss. Other than loans and receivables held
by the IOOF Group and its controlled entities, assets backing policy liabilities have been designated at
fair value through profit or loss as the assets are managed on a fair value basis.
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
68
Liabilities relating to statutory funds
Policy liabilities have been determined in accordance with applicable accounting standards. Policy
liabilities for life insurance contracts are valued in accordance with AASB 1038, whereas life investment
contracts are valued in accordance with AASB 9 and AASB 15. There are differences between the
valuation requirements of the accounting standards and those of the Life Insurance Act 1995.
Contract classification relating to statutory funds
The accounting treatment of certain transactions varies depending on the nature of the contract
underlying the transaction. The major contract classifications are insurance contracts and investment
contracts.
i
Insurance contracts
Insurance contracts with a discretionary participation feature ('DPF') are those containing
significant insurance risk at the inception of the contract, or those where at the inception of the
contract there is a scenario with commercial substance where the level of insurance risk may be
significant. The significance of insurance risk is dependent on both the probability of an insured
event and the magnitude of its potential effect. Life insurance contract liabilities are calculated in
accordance with actuarial standards.
Once a contract has been classified as an insurance contract, it remains an insurance contract for
the remainder of its lifetime, even if the insurance risk reduces significantly during the year.
ii
Investment contracts
Contracts not considered insurance contracts are classified as investment contracts. The
accounting treatment of investment contracts depends on whether the investment has a
discretionary participation feature ('DPF'). A DPF represents a contractual right to receive, as a
supplement to guaranteed benefits, additional benefits that are:
likely to be a significant portion of the total benefits;
distributed at the discretion of the insurer; and
are based on the performance of a specified pool of assets.
Deposits collected and benefits paid under investment contracts with DPF are accounted for
through profit or loss. The gross change in the liability to these policyholders for the year, which
includes any participating benefits vested in policyholders and any undistributed surplus attributed
to policyholders, is also recognised in profit or loss.
Deposits collected and withdrawals processed for investment contracts without DPF are accounted
for directly through the statement of financial position as a movement in the investment contract
liability. Distributions on these contracts are charged to profit or loss as an expense.
Where contracts contain both an investment component and an insurance component and the
deposit component can be separately measured, the underlying amounts are unbundled.
Premiums relating to the insurance component are accounted for through profit or loss and the
investment component is accounted for as a deposit through the statement of financial position as
described above.

The definitions of each level and the valuation techniques used are as follows:
Level 1: quoted closing prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included with Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability,
either directly (ie. as prices) or indirectly (ie. derived from prices). Fair values are derived from published
market indices and include adjustments to take account of the credit risk of the IOOF Group entity and
counterparty.
Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The IOOF Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the end of the reporting
year during which the transfer has occurred. There were no transfers between Level 1 to Level 2 of the fair
value hierarchy during the year ended 30 June 2021.

There were no transfers into or out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the year ended 30 June 2021.
Level 3 financial assets consist of:
A debt note carried at fair value in prior year. The debt note was valued via a discounted cash flow, which
incorporates unobservable inputs such as discount rates, counterparty credit, and probability-adjusted
revenues expected to be received under the arrangement. An increase in the discount rate used in isolation
would result in a decrease to the fair value of the debt note. An increase in the probability adjusted revenues
in isolation would result in an increase in the fair value of the debt note. The debt note was redeemed on 31
January 2020 to fund the acquisition of the Pensions and Investments businesses from ANZ.
Level 3 financial liabilities consist of:
Deferred purchase consideration in respect of client lists purchased by the IOOF Group, which is valued at
best estimate of the amount payable under the relevant contracts. The amount of deferred consideration
payable is linked to the retention of clients, which is an unobservable input and may decrease the value of
the liability.
Issued investment protection derivatives. These derivatives are measured using market standard valuation
models and assumptions. Significant unobservable inputs include the underlying investments’ growth rate
and the risk-free interest rate assumptions.
A 1% (-1%) increase (decrease) in the underlying investments’ growth rate assumption would result in a
decrease (increase) in fair value by $0.1m (2020: nil), holding all other variables constant. A 1% (-1%)
increase (decrease) in the risk-free interest rate assumption would result in a decrease (increase) in fair
value by $6.7m (2020: nil), holding all other variables constant.

Section 2 – Results for the year
This section focuses on the results and performance of the IOOF Group. On the following pages you will find
disclosures explaining the IOOF Group’s results for the year, segment information, taxation and earnings per
share.
Where an accounting policy is specific to a single note, the policy is described in the note to which it relates.
2-1 Operating Segments
The IOOF Group has the following seven divisions, which are its reportable segments. All segments' operating
results are regularly reviewed by the IOOF Group's Chief Executive Officer to make decisions about resources
to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is
available.
Financial advice
The provision of financial planning advice and stockbroking services supported by services such as investment
research, training, compliance support and access to financial products. Advice operations acquired with the
MLC Wealth transaction are included in the Financial advice segment. MLC advisers transitioned to IOOF
AFSLs upon acquisition, and results are included in this segment for the period 1 June 2021 to 30 June 2021.
Portfolio and estate administration
The provision of administration and management services through master trust platforms, which offer a single
access point to a range of investment products.
Investment management
The management and investment of monies on behalf of corporate, superannuation, institutional clients and
private individual investor clients.
Ex-ANZ wealth management advice licensees
Ex-ANZ Wealth Management Advice Licensees (ex-ANZ ALs) acquired from ANZ during 2019, which provide
financial planning advice services.
Ex-ANZ pensions and investments
Ex-ANZ Pensions and Investments (P&I) businesses which have platform businesses across retail and
corporate. These businesses were acquired from 1 February 2020. This is also inclusive of the debt note
revenue up until its redemption on 31 January 2020.
MLC Wealth
MLC Wealth (MLC) businesses which have platform and asset management businesses servicing retail
corporate and institutional clients. The MLC Wealth business was acquired from 31 May 2021.
Corporate and other
Corporate and other costs include those of a strategic, shareholder or governance nature incurred in carrying
on business as a listed entity managing multiple business units.
Information regarding the results of each reportable segment (excluding the benefit funds) is included below.
Performance is measured based on segment underlying profit before income tax as management believes
that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of certain segments relative to other entities
that operate within these industries.

2-2 Discontinued operations
The following operations of the IOOF Group were divested in the prior year.
a
Ord Minnett business
On 27 June 2019, the Directors announced the divestment of the Group's 70% holding in Ord Minnett
Holdings Pty Ltd (Ord Minnett). The disposal is consistent with the Group's long-term strategy to focus
on its core wealth management capabilities. The Group entered into a contract with a consortium of
private investors led by current Ord Minnett management to dispose of its stake in Ord Minnett for sale
consideration of $115m, $10m of which was received in the previous financial year as a non-refundable
deposit. The Group recognised a post-tax profit on sale of $83.7m in respect of the Ord Minnett
business upon completion of the transaction. Completion of the sale occurred on 24 September 2019.
b
Investment in Perennial Value Management (PVM)
On 10 October 2019, the IOOF Group divested its equity accounted investment in Perennial Value
Management Limited. The book value of the Group’s investment in PVM was $7.8m at the time of
divestment.
c
IOOF New Zealand business
On 16 April 2020, the IOOF Group announced that IOOF New Zealand Ltd had entered into an
agreement to sell all client rights relating to the IOOF Integral Master Trust to Britannia Financial

Accounting policies
Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The IOOF Group
recognises revenue when it transfers control over a good or service to a customer.
i
Management and service fees revenue
The IOOF Group provides management services to unit trusts and funds operated by the IOOF
Group at normal commercial rates. Management and service fees earned from the unit trusts and
funds are calculated based on an agreed percentage of the respective funds under management
or administration as disclosed in the respective product disclosure statements and are recognised
as performance obligations are satisfied over time.
Revenue from the provision of financial planning services together with revenue from the rendering
of services are recognised as performance obligations are satisfied over time.
ii
Stockbroking revenue and external other fee revenue
Other fee revenue and stockbroking revenue from the rendering of services are recognised as
performance obligations are satisfied over time.
iii
Finance income
Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested (including financial assets measured
at fair value), dividend income, gains on the divestment of financial assets and changes in the fair
value of financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Interest income
is recognised as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest method. Dividend income is

Accounting policies
Expenses are recognised at the fair value of the consideration paid or payable for services received, further
specific expense policies are listed below:
i
Service fees and other direct costs
Service fees and other direct costs include amounts paid to advisers, dealer groups and other
suppliers in the course of operating and marketing products and services of the IOOF Group.
Examples of direct costs include custodian fees, audit services and the printing and mailing of client
statements and other communications. The values are recognised at the fair value of the
consideration paid or payable for the goods or services received.
ii
Salaries and related employee expenses
These entitlements include salaries, wages, superannuation, bonuses, overtime, allowances,
annual and long service leave, but exclude share-based payments. The accounting policies for the
four major expense categories under this definition are as follows.
Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are
expensed as the related service is provided.
A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid if the IOOF Group has a present legal
or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee
and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Short-term incentive plans
A provision for employee benefits in the form of an incentive plan is recognised when there is no
realistic alternative but to settle the liability and at least one of the following conditions is met:
there are formal terms in the plan for determining the amount of the benefit;
the amounts to be paid are determined before the time of completion of the financial report; or
past practice gives clear evidence of the amount of the obligation.
Annual and long service leave benefits
The IOOF Group's net obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits is the amount of future
benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior years plus
related on-costs.
Liabilities for long-term benefits that are expected to be settled beyond 12 months are discounted
using rates attaching to high quality corporate bonds which most closely match the terms of
maturity of the related liabilities at balance date.
In determining the liability for employee entitlements, consideration is given to future increases in
wage and salary rates, experience with employee departures and years of service.
Employee defined contribution plan expense
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed
contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further
amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in profit or loss
in the years during which services are rendered by employees. Prepaid contributions are
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
80
recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is
available.
iii
Share-based payments expense
The grant date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees is recognised as
a share-based payment expense, with a corresponding increase in the share-based payments
reserve, over the year that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards. The
amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related
service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately
recognised as an expense is based on the number of awards that meet the related service and
non-market performance conditions at vesting date.
The fair value at grant date is independently determined where considered appropriate.
Shares held by the IOOF Equity Plans Trust will contribute to the employee allocation of shares on
satisfaction of vesting performance hurdles. The IOOF Group has no right to recall placed shares.
However, a subsidiary company acts as the Trustee of the Trust and can direct the voting rights of
shares held and strategic direction.
Further information is included in Note 6-2.
iv
Termination payments
Termination benefits or redundancy costs are recognised as an expense when the IOOF Group is
committed demonstrably to a formal detailed plan without possibility of withdrawal, or providing
termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy.
v
Amortisation and impairment
The value of intangible assets, with the exception of goodwill and brand names with indefinite
useful lives, reduces over the number of years the IOOF Group expects to use the asset, the useful
economic life, via an annual amortisation charge to profit and loss. The values and useful lives
ascribed are reflective of arms-length transactions and independent expert advice thereon.
Where there has been a technological change or decline in business performance, amongst other
impairment indicators, management reviews the value of assets to ensure they have not fallen
below their carrying value. Should an asset's value fall below its carrying value an additional one-
off impairment charge is made against profit.
vi
Deferred acquisition costs
Deferred acquisition costs relate to service fees paid and are deferred as an asset in recognition
that they relate to a future economic benefit. Deferred acquisition costs are initially measured at
historical cost and are written down immediately to their recoverable amount if the carrying amount
is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Deferred acquisition costs are progressively amortised in profit or loss by a systematic allocation
over the years the future economic benefits are expected to be received. The amortisation period
is between 5 and 7 years.

For statutory reporting purposes, IOOF Group had an effective tax rate of negative 12.8% on its continuing
operations for the year ended 30 June 2021 (2020: 32.9%) compared to a statutory corporate tax rate of 30%.
This rate difference is primarily due to impairment of goodwill, tax benefit on prior year capital losses not
previously recognised, research and development (R&D) tax offsets, non-deductible subsidiary acquisition
costs, prior period amendments, and the transfer of deductions to the statutory funds in accordance with the
Taxation of Insurance Companies. For the year ended 30 June 2020, the rate difference was primarily due to
similar factors, with the exception of subsidiary acquisition costs and prior year capital losses. Excluding these
items the IOOF Group's effective tax rate would be 30.4% and 29.7% respectively.

Accounting policies
Income tax
Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss except
to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in other
comprehensive income.
Current tax
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates
enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of
previous years. Current tax also includes any tax arising from dividends.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if certain criteria are met.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not
recognised for:
temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business
combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss;
temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries and associates to the extent that the IOOF
Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they
will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and
taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.
Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they
reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets
and liabilities and when deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority.
Tax consolidation
IOOF Holdings Ltd and its wholly owned Australian resident entities (including IOOF Ltd benefit funds) are part
of a tax-consolidated group under Australian taxation law. As a consequence, all members of the tax-
consolidated group are taxed as a single entity.
Tax transparency
The IOOF Group is committed to tax transparency and integrity. It has been a signatory to the Board of
Taxation's Voluntary Tax Transparency Code (the Code) since January 2017.
The Code is a set of principles and ‘minimum standards’ to guide disclosure of tax information by businesses,
encourage those businesses to avoid aggressive tax planning, and to help educate the public about their
compliance with Australia’s tax laws.
The IOOF Group provides a reconciliation of accounting profit to tax expense, and to income tax paid/payable
including identification of material temporary and non-temporary differences and accounting effective company
tax rates for the IOOF Group’s Australian and global operations.

Information about international related party dealings
The IOOF Group largely conducted all activities in Australia for the current financial year. Minor operations
were acquired in foreign jurisdictions on 31 May 2021 and each of those entities is subject to the local tax
regime. The effective tax rates for these entities will be disclosed with the IOOF Group’s effective tax rate from
next year. Related party dealings between the IOOF Group’s Australian and foreign jurisdictions are supported
by transfer pricing documentation.
Approach to tax strategy and governance
Tax governance is part of the IOOF Group 's overall risk management framework, as well as being part of an
overall tax strategy. The overall tax strategy drives the IOOF Group’s approach to tax risk management and is
aimed at good corporate tax compliance and reporting, ability to meet and be prepared for regulatory changes,
and in ensuring shareholder value. Tax governance is continuously monitored and in line with the IOOF Group
's strategy. The IOOF Group regards its relationship with the ATO as effective and open thereby maintaining
transparency and collaboration.
Tax contribution analysis
The IOOF Group contributed a total of $140.9m in taxes to the Australian governments (state and federal) in
the 2021 tax year. The below table provides an analysis of the types of taxes the IOOF Group is liable for.
Further taxes paid by the IOOF Group on behalf of others, including employees and members, are not directly
borne by the Group. These include income tax, GST, pay-as-you-earn withholding taxes, and local duties,
which total a further $410.8m (2020: $94.9m).

The above available amounts are based on the balance of the dividend franking account at year-end adjusted
for:
a
franking credits that will arise from the payment of the current tax liabilities; and
b
franking credits that the IOOF Group may be prevented from distributing in subsequent years.
The ability to utilise the franking credits is dependent upon there being sufficient available profits to declare

recognised as a liability is to reduce it by $32.0m (2020: $17.3m).

Accounting policies
The IOOF Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share for its ordinary shares. Basic earnings per
share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the
weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, adjusted for treasury shares held.
Diluted earnings per share is determined by adjusting the basic earnings per share for the effects of all dilutive
potential ordinary shares, which comprise performance rights granted to employees.
At 30 June 2021, there were no options outstanding (2020: nil).
The average market value of the Company's shares for purposes of calculating the dilutive effect of
performance rights was based on quoted market prices for the year.

Section 3 - Capital management and financing
This section outlines how the IOOF Group manages its capital structure and related financing costs, including
its balance sheet liquidity and access to capital markets.
The IOOF Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern,
so that it can continue to provide returns to shareholders and benefits to other stakeholders, and to maintain
an optimal structure to reduce the cost of capital.
3-1 Capital management
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the IOOF Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid
to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, buy back its shares on market, issue new shares, sell assets,
or otherwise adjust debt levels.
The IOOF Group monitors capital on the basis of investment capital, working capital and regulatory capital.
Investment capital is the IOOF Group’s capital that is not required for regulatory and working capital
requirements of the business. The investment capital is invested in:
bank deposits and debt note;
subsidiaries;
financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income;
unit trusts, as investments; and
IOOF Group operated unit trusts, as seed capital.
Investment capital
The investment capital is available to support the organic development of new businesses and products and
to respond to investment and growth opportunities such as acquisitions, as they arise. Seed capital is primarily
available to support the business in establishing new products and is also used to support capital adequacy
requirements of the benefit funds.
Working capital
Working capital is the capital that is required to meet the day to day operations of the business.
Regulatory capital
Regulatory capital is the capital which the IOOF Group holds to meet minimum legislative and regulatory
requirements in respect of its friendly society, issued term-based investment protection products and Australian
financial services (AFS) licensed operations. During the year, the IOOF Group has complied with all externally
imposed capital requirements.
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021

The Board of each operational subsidiary manages its own capital required to support planned business growth
and meet regulatory requirements. Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) regulated subsidiaries
have their own capital management plan which specifically addresses the regulatory requirements of that entity
and sets a target surplus over minimum regulatory requirements.
As part of the MLC Wealth acquisition discussed in note 6-4, the IOOF Group acquired a number of MLC
wealth subsidiaries with externally imposed regulatory capital requirements. These include the capital
requirements for Registrable Superannuation Entities (RSE) licensees and AFS licensees.
In addition, capital is held for risks relating to the term-based investment protection products issued by one of
the MLC subsidiaries:

-
Cash surplus
14.7
-
Regular monitoring of regulatory requirements ensures sufficient capital is available and appropriate planning
is made to retain target surpluses to reduce the risk of beaching regulatory capital requirements. IOOF
Holdings Ltd is primarily the provider of equity capital to its subsidiaries. Such investment is funded by IOOF
Holdings Ltd’s own investment capital, through capital issues, profit retention and, in some instances, by debt.
Subsidiary capital generated in excess of planned requirements is returned to IOOF Holdings Ltd, usually by
way of dividends.
A standby facility is in place as a safeguard against a temporary need for funds and to provide a short-term
funding facility that allows the business to take advantage of acquisition opportunities as they arise. The
weighted average cost of capital is regularly monitored. Funding decisions take into consideration the cost of
debt versus the cost of equity with emphasis on the outcome that is best for shareholder interests.
The IOOF Group’s capital risk management strategy was not changed during the year.
Further information in relation to capital adequacy requirements imposed by the Life Insurance Act 1995 is
provided in note 5-4 Capital adequacy position.

Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021

On 27 November 2020, the IOOF Group entered into an additional accommodation agreement to provide an
additional $250m cash advance under the Syndicated Facility Agreement (SFA) for the acquisition of MLC
Wealth. The amended SFA consists of the following facilities:
$240m revolving cash advance facility with a 4-year repayment term from 27 September 2018 (being the
SFA effective date).
$625m revolving cash advance facility with a 5-year repayment term from the SFA effective date.
Multi-option facility with a 3-year repayment term from the SFA effective date, comprising a contingent
liability facility.
The SFA facilities have a debt duration profile of approximately 2.0 years (calculated on a facility limit basis)
(30 June 2020: 2.5 years).
On 31 May 2021, the IOOF Group issued $200m SLNs to fund the acquisition of MLC Wealth. Key terms are:
SLNs are unsecured subordinated debt obligations of IOOF.
1% per annum coupon payable semi-annually. Step up to 4% per annum if the noteholders request
redemption more than 42 months after the issue date and IOOF does not redeem.
5-year term with an early redemption start period of 42 months from completion (31 May 2021).
Equity linked redemption linked to any uplift in notional securities over a reference price (being a 15%
premium to the theoretical ex rights price for the equity offer) and subject to adjustment.
IOOF permitted to accelerate redemption after 3 years if the volume weighted average price is at least 150%
of the reference price or in case of certain tax changes. Holder permitted to accelerate redemption at any
time commencing 42 months after the issue date, subject to issuer consent, or upon change in control
(acquisition by a person of beneficial ownership of 50% or more of the ordinary voting power of outstanding
voting shares or delisting or 15 trading day suspension).
For financial reporting purposes, these SLNs contain a host contract and a compound embedded derivative
that is required to be recognised separately. The host contract is initially recognised at fair value and
subsequently measured at amortised cost, and it will accrete to the face value of the notes using the effective
interest rate. The compound embedded derivative is measured at fair value and is included in other financial
liabilities.
The net debt to equity ratio stood at 18.9% at 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: 24.8%) reflecting net borrowings
of $469.7m (30 June 2020: $430.9m), principally $476.0m under the SFA (30 June 2020: $460.0m). All banking
covenants have been met at 30 June 2021.
(a) Cash advance & working capital facility
The unsecured cash advance facilities and working capital facility is provided under an Australian dollar line

Capital raise
In September 2020, the IOOF Group completed a capital raising for the purposes of the acquisition of the MLC
Wealth businesses. The capital raising consisted of a fully underwritten institutional placement and accelerated
non-renounceable entitlement offer, a retail entitlement offer, and a non-underwritten share purchase plan.
Under these offers, the Group raised total additional capital of $1,043.9m, representing 298,248,329 ordinary
shares, and incurred transaction costs of $20.4m ($14.3m net of tax).
Accounting policies
Ordinary shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares and
share options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of any tax effects.
Treasury shares
Shares in the Company which are purchased on-market by the IOOF Equity Plans Trust are classified as
treasury shares and are deducted from share capital. Treasury shares are excluded from the weighted average
number of ordinary shares used in the earnings per share calculations. The IOOF Equity Plans Trust is
controlled by the IOOF Group and is therefore consolidated. Dividends received on treasury shares are
eliminated on consolidation.

Contingent liabilities
Contingent liabilities of the IOOF Group exist in relation to claims and/or possible claims which, at the date of
signing these accounts, have not been resolved. An assessment of the likely loss to the Company and its
controlled entities has been made in respect of the identified claims, on a claim by claim basis, and specific
provision has been made where appropriate. The IOOF Group does not consider that the outcome of any other
current proceedings, either individually or in aggregate, is likely to materially affect its operations or financial
position.
Buyer of Last Resort Facility
Two subsidiaries of the IOOF Group have contractual agreements with its planners to provide a put option
“Buyer of Last Resort Facility” should a planner wish to sell their business and on the satisfaction of certain
specific requirements. The terms and conditions provide that where the specific requirements have been met,
a predetermined purchase price will be payable for the business as agreed by all parties over a predetermined
period. Where certain terms and conditions have not been met, the predetermined purchase price will be
discounted accordingly. As at 30 June 2021, the IOOF Group had received requests from planners which
satisfied requirements to exercise its obligation. The resale value of such businesses purchased may differ
from the cost to the IOOF Group. Where confirmation notices have been received, the IOOF Group has a fixed
obligation to purchase the businesses at market value, the aggregate value of this fixed obligation is $4.78m
(2020: $5.32m).
Class Actions and Potential Regulatory Investigations
Contingent liabilities of the IOOF Group exist in relation to claims and/or possible claims which, at the date of
signing these accounts, have not been resolved. For example, the IOOF Group is currently defending a number
of class actions in the Federal and Supreme Courts of Australia. An assessment of the likely loss to the
Company and its controlled entities has been made in respect of the identified claims, on a claim by claim
basis, and specific provision is made where appropriate.
Based on the current information available the IOOF Group does not consider that the outcome of any other
current proceedings, either individually or in aggregate, is likely to materially affect its operations or financial
position.
Other remediation matters
There are a number of remediation matters under investigation. The potential outcomes and total costs
associated with these matters remain uncertain.

Dividends received from associates
During the year, the IOOF Group has received dividends of $0.2m (2020: $0.4m) from its associates.
Accounting policies
Interests in associates are accounted for using the equity method. They are initially recognised at cost, which
includes any transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, the consolidated financial statements include
the IOOF Group's share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associates, until the date
on which significant influence ceases.
Impairment
An impairment loss in respect of an associate is measured by comparing the recoverable amount of the
investment with its carrying amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and
value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value
using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks
specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. An impairment loss
is recognised in profit or loss and is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to
determine the recoverable amount.

Accounting policies
Intangible assets are non-physical assets used by the IOOF Group to generate revenues and profits. These
assets include brand names, software, customer and adviser relationships. The cost of these assets is the
amount that the IOOF Group has paid or, where there has been a business combination, the fair value of the
specific intangible assets that could be sold separately or which arise from legal rights.
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021

The value of intangible assets, with the exception of goodwill and brand names with indefinite useful lives,
reduces over the number of years the IOOF Group expects to use the asset, the useful economic life, via an
annual amortisation charge to profit and loss. The values and useful lives ascribed are reflective of arms-length
transactions and independent expert advice thereon. Where there has been a technological change or decline
in business performance, management reviews the value of assets to ensure they have not fallen below their
carrying value. Should an asset's value fall below its carrying value, an impairment charge is recognised in
profit or loss.
Subsequent expenditure
Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the
specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on brands, is recognised in profit
or loss as incurred.
Amortisation
Amortisation is charged to the income statement over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets unless
such lives are judged to be indefinite. Indefinite life assets are not amortised but are tested for impairment at
each reporting date. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
brand names 20 years
IT development 3 - 5 years
computer software 2.5 - 10 years
other intangibles 5 - 10 years
customer relationships 10 - 20 years
Amortisation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if
appropriate.
Impairment testing for cash-generating units containing indefinite life intangible assets
For the purposes of impairment testing, indefinite life intangibles are allocated to the IOOF Group's operating
divisions, or CGUs, which represent the lowest level within the IOOF Group at which intangible assets are
monitored for internal management purposes.
Each CGU is not higher than the IOOF Group's operating segments as reported in Note 2-1 Operating
segments.
In 2020, impairment was recognised in relation to certain customer relationships and other intangible assets.
Reduced cash flows associated with the customer relationships and other intangible assets led to their
expected value in use and fair value less costs to sell declining to below the carrying value of the intangible
assets. No such impairment was required in 2021.

Indefinite life intangible assets (other than goodwill)
The indefinite life intangible assets (other than goodwill) relate to brand names. The below table excludes
$6.3m (2020: $7.1m) of intangibles which have a finite life. The aggregate carrying amounts of indefinite-life
intangible assets allocated to each CGU are as follows:

In designating brand names as indefinite life, consideration was given to the length of time the brand names
have been in existence and it was determined that there is no foreseeable limit to the years over which the
brand names are expected to generate net cash inflows for the IOOF Group.
For the purposes of impairment testing, indefinite life intangible assets are allocated to the IOOF Group's cash-
generating units (CGUs). These represent the lowest level within the IOOF Group at which the assets are
monitored for internal management purposes. The calculation incorporates estimated costs of brand
maintenance. The post-tax discount rate of 10.4% (Shadforth) (2020: 10.0%) and 12.0% (Lonsdale) (2020:
10.0%) used reflects the IOOF Group's post-tax nominal weighted average cost of capital (WACC) for the
relevant CGU. Management's assessment of value in use for each CGU supports the value of the intangible
asset allocated to the CGU. Any reasonably possible changes to assumptions used in management's
assessment is not expected to result in impairment.

(1)Purchase price allocation has not been completed for the acquisition of the MLC Wealth businesses. The net asset adjustment and
purchase price allocation are still being finalised in connection with this acquisition. Therefore, the goodwill acquired in this transaction is
provisional.
Impairment of $199.9m has been recognised in 2021 in connection with goodwill allocated to the Shadforth,
DKN, and Bridges CGUs. The impairment primarily reflects reduced profitability due to the termination of the
platform relationship with BT Portfolio Services Ltd and the cessation of grandfathered revenue in the advice
business. Impairment of $4.3m was recognised in 2020 in relation to goodwill allocated to the Consultum CGU.
Reduced profitability from lower revenue led to its expected fair value less costs to sell and value in use
declining to below the carrying value of the goodwill balance.
Accounting policies
Goodwill represents the future economic benefits that arise from assets that are not capable of being
individually identified and separately recognised. Its cost is the amount the IOOF Group has paid in acquiring
a business over and above the fair value of the individual assets and liabilities acquired. The value of goodwill
is an 'intangible' value that comes from, for example, a uniquely strong market position and the productivity of
its employees. The goodwill recognised by the IOOF Group has all arisen as a result of business combinations.
For the measurement of goodwill at initial recognition, see note 7-3(b)(i) Business combinations.
Subsequent measurement
Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. In respect of equity-accounted investees,
the carrying amount of goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment. Any impairment loss is
allocated to the carrying amount of the equity accounted investee as a whole and recognised through the IOOF
Group’s share of profit or loss of the associate.
Impairment testing for cash-generating units containing goodwill
For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the IOOF Group's cash-generating units
(CGUs). These represent the lowest level within the IOOF Group at which the goodwill is monitored for internal
management purposes. Assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group
of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows from
continuing use of other assets or groups of assets (the CGU).
These CGUs are not higher than the IOOF Group's operating segments as reported in 2-1 Operating
segments.

The growth rates applied do not exceed the long-term average growth rate for businesses in which each CGU
operates. The post-tax discount rate identified above (2020: 10.0% for all CGUs) used reflects the IOOF
Group's pre-tax nominal weighted average cost of capital (WACC).
Sensitivity
Due to current year impairment recognised in relation to the Shadforth CGU, any future adverse movement in
assumptions may result in additional impairment.
Management has identified that, in relation to the Platform CGU, a change in three key assumptions could
cause the carrying amount to exceed the recoverable amount. The following table shows the amount by which
these three assumptions would need to change individually for the estimated recoverable amount to be equal
to the carrying amount.

1 Provisions totalling $168.1m were recognised in respect of the ex-ANZ ALs acquired on 1 October 2018. These provisions relate to
customer remediation during the period that the relevant entities were owned by ANZ. The sale agreement indemnified the acquired
entities in relation to customer remediation and accordingly, a corresponding receivable from ANZ has been recognised.
Accounting policies
A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the IOOF Group has a present legal or constructive
obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required
to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax
rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money.
Advice remediation provision
In 2019, the IOOF Group engaged an expert consultant to design the review methodology and estimate
financial compensation relating to client remediation in line with observed industry practice. This was in
response to ASIC’s investigation as part of its Wealth Management Project, conducting investigations into
financial advice fees paid pursuant to ongoing service arrangements. While IOOF Group was not issued a
notice under this review, the Group has a significant number of self-employed and salaried financial advisers
and is voluntarily undertaking its own review. The review determines whether fee paying clients under its
licenses were: a) provided with agreed services and/or advice; b) supported with documentation evidencing
appropriate provision of service and/or advice; and c) received advice appropriate to their circumstances.
Where client compensation is probable and able to be reliably estimated, provisions are raised. Compensation
costs include return of service fees, estimated client loss as a result of inappropriate advice, interest for time
value of money at ASIC’s directed rate of RBA cash rate + 6% and committed costs to resource the
compensation program.
As at 30 June 2021, the IOOF Group has provisions of $377.2m (2020: $432.7m) in respect of advice
remediation and related costs. Of this amount, $175.1m is indemnified by the ANZ Banking Group (2020:
$215.8m) and an offsetting receivable has also been recognised. The provision was reduced by client
remediation payments and program costs paid throughout the year.
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021

Product remediation provision
During the financial year, the IOOF Group acquired product remediation provisions along with the MLC entities.
These remediation projects were commenced under NAB ownership and are a component of the completion
net asset process with NAB pursuant to the Share Sale & Purchase Agreement.
The purchase price allocation relating to the ex-ANZ Pensions and Investments business was finalised during
the year, resulting in a reduction to remediation provisions of $23.2m. This adjustment has been recognised
as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date, and therefore the amount presented in the
prior period has been restated.
As at 30 June 2021, the IOOF Group has provisions of $281.7m (2020: $174.7m) in respect of product
remediation and related costs. The provision was reduced by client remediation payments and program costs
paid throughout the year.
Determining the amount of the provision, which represents management's best estimate of the costs of settling
the identified matters, requires the exercise of significant judgement. It will often be necessary to form a view
on a number of different assumptions, including the number of impacted clients, the average refund per client,
and associated remediation costs. Consequently, the appropriateness of the underlying assumptions is
reviewed on a regular basis against actual experience and other relevant evidence, and adjustments are made
to the provisions where appropriate.
Employee entitlements
The provision for employee benefits includes provisions for remuneration in the form of incentive plans and
expected leave benefits that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior years
plus related on-costs.
A provision for employee benefits in the form of an incentive plan is recognised when there is no realistic
alternative but to settle the liability, and at least one of the following conditions is met:
there are formal terms in the plan for determining the amount of the benefit;
the amounts to be paid are determined before the time of completion of the financial report; or
past practice gives clear evidence of the amount of the obligation.
A provision for restructuring is recognised when the IOOF Group has approved a detailed and formal
restructuring plan, and the restructuring either has commenced or has been announced publicly. Future
operating losses are not provided for.
Liabilities for incentives are expected to be settled within 12 months and are measured at the amounts
expected to be paid when they are settled.
Other provisions
Other provisions have been made for the present value of management’s best estimates of legal settlements.
The information usually required by AASB 137 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, is not
disclosed on the grounds that it can be expected to prejudice the outcome of certain other litigation.

(i)
Recognition and measurement
Property and equipment are measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated
impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.
The gain or loss on divestment of an item of property and equipment is determined by comparing the proceeds
from divestment with the carrying amount of the property and equipment and is recognised net within other
income/other expenses in profit or loss.
(ii) Subsequent costs
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as
appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the
IOOF Group. Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to profit or loss as they are incurred.
(iii) Depreciation
Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each
component of an item of property and equipment. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease
term and their useful lives unless it is reasonably certain that the IOOF Group will obtain ownership by the end
of the lease term.
Items of property and equipment are depreciated from the date that they are installed and are ready for use,
or in respect of internally constructed assets, from the date that the asset is completed and ready for use.
The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative year are as follows:
office equipment 3-10 years

The Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract. The Group
recognises a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease arrangements in
which it is the new lessee, except for certain short-term leases (defined as leases with a lease term of 12
months or less) and leases of low value assets. For these leases, the Group recognises the lease payments
as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic basis is
more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased assets are consumed.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the
commencement date, discounted by using the rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily
determined, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate. The incremental borrowing rate is determined with
reference to the following factors:
length of the lease;
lessee specific credit risk; and
secured borrowings adjustment.
The lease liability is subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease
liability (using the effective interest method) any by reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments
made. The Group remeasures the lease liability (and makes a corresponding adjustment to the related right-
of-use asset) whenever:
the lease term has changed or there is a change in the assessment of exercise of a purchase option, in
which case the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised
discount rate.
the lease payments change due to changes in an index or rate or a change in expected payment under a
guaranteed residual value, in which cases the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease
payments using the initial discount rate (unless the lease payments change is due to a change in floating
interest rate, in which case a revised discount rate is used).
a lease contract is modified and the lease modification is not accounted for as a separate lease, in which
case the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount
rate.
The right of use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability, lease payments
made at or before the commencement day and any initial direct costs. They are subsequently measured at
cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Right of use assets are depreciated over the shorter period of lease term and useful life of the underlying asset.
If a lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset of the cost of the right of use asset reflects that the Group
expects to exercise a purchase option, the related right of use asset is depreciated over the useful life of the
underlying asset. The depreciation starts at the commencement date of the lease.

The value of these liabilities changes in relation to the change in unit prices for unit linked contracts, and are
decreased by management fee charges. In accordance with the rules of the funds, any remaining surplus is
attributed to the policyholders. Adjustments to the liabilities at each reporting date are recorded in profit or loss.
Other investment contracts
The value of these liabilities changes in relation to the change in unit prices for unit linked contracts, and are
decreased by management fee charges. In accordance with the rules of the funds, any remaining surplus is

There is no claims expense in respect of life investment contracts. Surrenders and withdrawals which relate
to life investment contracts are treated as a movement in life investment contract liabilities. Surrenders are
recognised when the policyholder formally notifies of their intention to end the policy previously contracted.

Actuarial assumptions and methods
The effective date of the actuarial report on the policy liabilities and capital adequacy reserves is 30 June 2021.
The actuarial report for IOOF Ltd was prepared by Mr Andrew Mead, FIAA, and was dated 12 August 2021.
The actuarial report indicates that Mr Mead is satisfied as to the accuracy of the data upon which the policy
liabilities have been determined.
Actuarial Methods
Policy liabilities have been calculated in accordance with relevant actuarial guidance issued by the Australian
Prudential Regulation Authority under the Life Insurance Act 1995. Policy liabilities are based on a systematic
release of planned margins as services are provided to policyholders and premiums are received.
Key assumptions
Mortality and Morbidity
All mortality and morbidity risk is fully reinsured and the gross risk to the IOOF Group is low. The mortality and
morbidity assumptions have been taken to be equal to the reinsurer's mortality and morbidity assumptions.
Other Assumptions
In adopting the accumulation method to assess the policy liabilities, one material assumption is required. It is
assumed that the future overall experience as to expense levels, surrender/lapse rates and discount rates will
likely remain within a satisfactory range so that the policies produce future profits for the business. In which
case, there is no need to set aside provisions, in addition to the accumulation amounts, for future losses (i.e.,
there is no loss recognition concerns for the business). This assumption has been adopted on the basis that,
based on the current actual experience of the business, the policies are producing satisfactory profits for the
business and there is no circumstances known that would indicate that the current position (i.e. general
experience levels and ongoing profitability) will not continue into the future.
Sensitivity analysis
The policy liabilities are not sensitive to changes in variables within a moderate range. Increases in mortality
and morbidity assumptions will result in an increase in gross policy liabilities for IOOF Group, however as the
mortality and morbidity risk is fully reinsured any change in these assumptions would be consistent with the
reinsurer's assumptions and the net change in policy liabilities would be nil.

Disclosures on asset restrictions, managed assets and trustee
activities
(i)
Restrictions on assets
Investments held in life statutory funds can only be used in accordance with the relevant regulatory restrictions
imposed under the Life Act and associated rules and regulations. The main restrictions are that the assets in
a life statutory fund can only be used to meet the liabilities and expenses of that life statutory fund, to acquire
investments to further the business of the life statutory fund or as distributions when capital adequacy and
other regulatory requirements are met.
(ii) Managed Funds and other fiduciary duties
Entities in the IOOF Group, including the IOOF Ltd Benefit Funds, hold controlling investments in managed
funds. A subsidiary of the Company is the Responsible Entity for these managed funds and has a fiduciary
responsibility for managing these trusts. Arrangements are in place to ensure that such activities are managed
separately from the other activities of the IOOF Group.
5-4
Capital adequacy position
Capital adequacy reserves are required to meet the prudential standards determined in accordance with
Prudential Standard LPS 110 Capital Adequacy issued by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority under
paragraph 230A(1)(a) of the Life Insurance Act 1995. Capital adequacy reserves provide additional protection
to policy holders against the impact of fluctuations and unexpected adverse circumstances on the Company.

Share-based payments
The IOOF Group operates a number of employee share and option schemes operated by the IOOF Equity
Plans Trust (the Trust). The employee share option plans were approved by the Board of Directors.
IOOF Executive and Employee Share Option Plan
The IOOF Group has an ownership-based compensation scheme for executives and senior employees.
Selected employees may be granted options which entitle them to purchase ordinary fully paid shares in the
Company at a price fixed at the time the options are granted. Voting and dividend rights will be attached to the
unissued ordinary shares when the options have been exercised. Options may be exercised at any time from
the date of vesting to the date of their expiry.
Options granted under the plan carry no dividend or voting rights. All plans are equity-settled. There were no
options granted in 2021 (2020: nil).
IOOF Executive Performance Rights Plan
The IOOF Executive Performance Rights Plan is the vehicle used to deliver equity based incentives to
executives and senior employees of the IOOF Group.
Each employee receives ordinary shares of the Company on vesting of the performance rights. No amounts
are paid or payable by the recipient on receipt of the performance rights or on vesting. The performance rights
carry neither rights to dividends nor voting rights prior to vesting. All plans are equity-settled.
A mandatory deferral period exists relating to Executive STIs awarded in 2019. On vesting of performance
rights, ordinary shares are transferred to the employee's name or held in trust. The employee receives all
dividends on the ordinary shares while held in trust.

Inputs for measurement of grant date fair values granted during the financial year
The grant date fair values of share-based payment plans granted during the year were measured based on a
binomial options pricing model for non-market performance conditions and a monte carlo simulation model for
market performance conditions. Expected volatility is estimated by considering historic average share price
volatility. The inputs used in the measurement of the fair values at grant date of the share-based payment
plans are the following:

Accounting policies
The grant date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees is recognised as a share-
based payment expense, with a corresponding increase in the share-based payments reserve, over the years
that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards. The amount recognised as an expense is
adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market vesting conditions are
expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised as an expense is based on the number of
awards that meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at vesting date.
The fair value at grant date is independently determined where considered appropriate. The option pricing
model used takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price
at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free
interest rate for the term of the option.
Shares held by the Trust will contribute to the employee allocation of shares on satisfaction of vesting
performance hurdles. The IOOF Group has no right to recall placed shares. However, a subsidiary company
acts as the Trustee of the Trust and can direct the voting rights of shares held.
Shares in the Company held by the Trust are classified and disclosed as treasury shares, and deducted from
share capital. Dividends received by the Trust are recorded as dividend income in the financial statements of
the Trust and are eliminated on consolidation.

Unconsolidated structured entities
The IOOF Group has interests in various structured entities that are not consolidated. An 'interest' in an
unconsolidated structured entity is any form of contractual or non-contractual involvement which exposes the
IOOF Group to variability of returns from the performance of that entity. Such interests include holdings of seed
capital for the purpose of supporting the establishment of new products.
The IOOF Group has investments in managed investment funds through its asset management subsidiaries.
Control of these managed investment funds may exist since the IOOF Group has power over the activities of
the fund. However, these funds have not been consolidated because the IOOF Group is not exposed to
significant variability in returns from the funds. The IOOF Group earns management fees from the management
of these investment funds which are commensurate with the services provided and are reported in external
management and service fees revenue in note 2-2. Management fees are generally based on the value of the
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
114
assets under management. Therefore, the fees earned are impacted by the composition of the assets under
management and fluctuations in financial markets.
Investment funds are investment vehicles that consist of a pool of funds collected from several investors for
the purpose of investing in securities such as money market instruments, debt securities, equity securities and
other similar assets. For all investment funds, the IOOF Group's maximum exposure to loss is equivalent to
the carrying amount of the investment in the fund.

Acquisition of subsidiary
MLC Wealth acquisition
Completion of the acquisition of MLC Wealth occurred on 31 May 2021. The purchase price allocation has not
been completed for the acquisition. The net asset adjustment is still being negotiated in connection with this
acquisition.
In the period from acquisition to 30 June 2021, MLC Wealth contributed revenue of $80.9m and a profit of
$15.3m to the IOOF Group’s results. This excludes acquisition related costs of $34.3m incurred during the
year.
If the acquisition had occurred on 1 July 2020, management estimates that the consolidated revenue from
continuing operations for the Group would have been $2,429.7m and consolidated loss from continuing
operations for the year would have been $179.5m. The loss is primarily driven by remediation expenses and
MLC Wealth’s proforma UNPAT for the 12 months ended 30 June 2021 is $81.0m. In determining these
amounts, management has assumed that the fair value adjustments, determined provisionally, that arose on
the date of acquisition would have been the same if the acquisition had occurred on 1 July 2020.
Prior year acquisition
The purchase price allocation for the ANZ P&I businesses acquired on 31 January 2020 was finalised during
the current financial year. The result of this was a net decrease in receivables, an increase in identified
intangibles acquired, the reallocation of goodwill to identified intangibles, recognition of amortisation on
identified intangibles, and a reduction in remediation provisions and related interest charges. Related income
tax balances have also been adjusted.
Specifically, the purchase price allocation resulted in a decrease to goodwill of $130.6m. In addition, $189.1m
of the preliminary goodwill value was reallocated to identified intangibles. In accordance with relevant
accounting standards, the adjustments required have been recognised retrospectively, with adjustments made
to provisional amounts recognised at the acquisition date. Further information of the impact of these
adjustments on the financial statements is disclosed at note 7-3.
In the period from acquisition to 30 June 2020, the ex-ANZ P&I businesses contributed revenue of $128.1m
and a profit of $31.2m to the IOOF Group’s UNPAT results. This excludes integration preparation costs of
$25.0m incurred during the year.
If the acquisition had occurred on 1 July 2019, management estimates that the consolidated revenue from
continuing operations for the Group for the prior year would have been $1,353.8m and consolidated profit from
continuing operations for the prior year would have been $101.8m. In determining these amounts,
management has assumed that the fair value adjustments, determined provisionally, that arose on the date of
acquisition would have been the same if the acquisition had occurred on 1 July 2019.

Defined benefit plan
The IOOF Group contributes to a post-employment defined benefit plan, the National Wealth Management
Superannuation Plan (the plan). The plan entitles employees to receive certain retirement benefits based on
a fixed percentage of each employee’s annual remuneration and the years of service.
The plan is a sub-plan of the MLC Super Fund. The Trustee of the MLC Super Fund, NULIS Nominees
(Australia) Limited, is a subsidiary of the IOOF Group. The Trustee of the MLC Super Fund is required by law
to act in the best interests of the plan participants and is responsible for setting certain policies of the fund.
The defined benefit plan exposes the IOOF Group to actuarial risks, such as investment risk, salary growth
risk, liquidity risk, sequencing risk (due to the plan being closed to new defined benefit members) and legislative
risk.
The amount included in the statement of financial position arising from the IOOF Group’s obligation in respect
of its defined benefit retirement benefit plan is as follows:

Funding
The plan is fully funded by MLC Wealth Limited (a subsidiary of the Company). In Australia, superannuation is
regulated by the Australian Prudential Regulatory Authority (APRA). APRA's Prudential Standard SPS 160
Defined Benefit Matters requires the plan’s vested benefit index (plan’s assets divided by vested benefits) to
be no less than 100%. The Trustee of the plan is required to ensure that a formal actuarial investigation is
completed at least every 3 years using the projected unit credit method and updated on an annual basis for
material movements in the plan position.
Based on the strong financial position of the Plan and the actuary’s recommendation, the IOOF Group does
not expect to pay contributions to its defined benefit plan in 2022.

At 30 June 2021, the weighted-average duration of the defined benefit obligation was 5 years. Based on the
current assumptions, benefit payments of approximately $5.0m are expected in 2022 followed by further
benefits of approximately $11.0m over the next 4 years.
Reasonable possible changes at the reporting date to one of the relevant actuarial assumptions, holding other
assumptions constant, would have affected the defined benefit obligation by the amounts shown below.

Section 7 - Basis of preparation
This section sets out the IOOF Group's accounting policies that relate to the financial statements as a whole.
Where an accounting policy is specific to a single note, the policy is described in the note to which it relates.
This section also shows new accounting standards, amendments and interpretations, and whether they are
effective in 2021 or later years. The expected impact of these changes to the financial position and
performance of the IOOF Group is explained in this section.
7-1
Reporting entity
The Company is a public company listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (trading under the symbol 'IFL'),
domiciled in Australia. The consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended 30
June 2021 comprise the Company and its controlled entities and the IOOF Group's interests in associates.
The IOOF Group is a for-profit entity and is primarily involved in the provision of wealth management services.
The Company's registered office and its principal place of business are Level 6, 161 Collins Street, Melbourne.
7-2
Basis of preparation
(a) Statement of compliance
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting
Standards (AASBs) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act
2001. The consolidated financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)
adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
The annual financial report was approved by the Board of Directors on 26 August 2021.
(b) Basis of measurement
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the following
material items in the statement of financial position:
financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value; and
equity investments at fair value through other comprehensive income are measured at fair value.
The statement of financial position is presented in order of liquidity.
(c) Functional and presentation currency
These consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company's functional
currency. All amounts have been rounded to the nearest thousand unless otherwise stated.
(d) Rounding of amounts
The Company is a company of the kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’
Reports) Instrument 2016/191, dated 24 March 2016, and in accordance with that instrument amounts in the
financial report are rounded off to the nearest one hundred thousand dollars, unless otherwise stated.
(e) Use of estimates and judgements
To comply with AASBs, management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect
the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.
Actual results may differ from these estimates.
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
122
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates
are recognised in the year in which the estimates are revised and in any future years affected.
Information about critical judgements in applying accounting policies, assumptions and estimation
uncertainties that may have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements is
included in the following notes:
note 1-1 – Issued investment protection products and deferred purchase consideration valuation;
note 3-4 – Contingencies;
note 4-2 - Intangible assets (other than goodwill);
note 4-3 - Goodwill;
note 4-4 - Provisions;
note 6-2 - Share-based payments;
note 6-4 - Acquisition of subsidiary; and
note 6-8 - Defined benefits plan.
7-3
Other significant accounting policies
Significant accounting policies have been included in the relevant notes to which the policies relate. Other
significant accounting policies are listed below.
Certain comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation.
(a) Changes in accounting policies
In the current year, the IOOF Group has reassessed the manner in which adviser service fees are treated in
the Group financial statements. Historically, some entities within the Group recognised these costs in service
and marketing fees expense. After standardising accounting policies across the Group, the relationship is now
assessed as agency and the fees are now recognised as a reduction to management and service fees revenue.
The impact of this change is disclosed in note 7-3(f).
Aside from this change, the IOOF Group has consistently applied the accounting policies to all years presented
in these consolidated financial statements.
(b) Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of the Company
as at 30 June 2021 and the results of all controlled subsidiaries for the year then ended. This includes the
benefit funds of its subsidiary, IOOF Ltd, and any controlled trusts.
The benefit funds, and any trusts controlled by those funds, are treated as statutory funds in accordance with
the Life Insurance Act 1995. These statutory funds, in addition to the statutory funds of the life insurance
business conducted by the IOOF Group, are shown separately from shareholder funds in the notes to the
financial statements.
Refer to note 1-1 Assets and liabilities relating to statutory funds for information in relation to the different
accounting treatment of investment contracts with discretionary participating features.
(i)
Business combinations
The IOOF Group accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method when control is transferred.
The consideration transferred in the acquisition is generally measured at fair value, as are the identifiable net
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
123
assets acquired. Any goodwill that arises is tested annually for impairment. Transaction costs are expensed
as incurred, except if related to the issue of debt or equity securities.
Any contingent consideration payable is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. If the contingent
consideration is classified as equity, it is not remeasured and settlement is accounted for within equity.
Otherwise, subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration are recognised in profit or
loss.
When share-based payment awards (replacement awards) are required to be exchanged for awards held by
the acquiree's employees (acquiree's awards) and relate to past services, then all or a portion of the amount
of the acquiree's replacement awards is included in measuring the consideration transferred in the business
combination. This determination is based on the market-based value of the replacement awards compared
with the market-based value of the acquiree's awards and the extent to which the replacement awards relate
to past and/or future service.
(ii)
Non-controlling interests (NCI)
NCI are measured at their proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets at the acquisition date.
Changes in the IOOF Group's interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for
as equity transactions.
(iii)
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the IOOF Group. The IOOF Group controls an entity when it is exposed
to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns
through its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated
financial statements from the date on which control commences until the date on which control ceases.
(iv)
Loss of control
When the IOOF Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets and liabilities of the
subsidiary, and any related NCI and other components of equity. Any resulting gain or loss is recognised in
profit or loss. Any interest retained in the former subsidiary is measured at fair value when control is lost.
(v)
IOOF Equity Plans Trust (the Trust)
The IOOF Group has formed a trust to administer the IOOF Group’s employee share schemes. The Trust is
consolidated, as the substance of the relationship is that the Trust is controlled by the IOOF Group. Shares
held by the Trust are disclosed as treasury shares and are deducted from share capital.
(vi)
Transactions eliminated on consolidation
Intra-IOOF Group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-
IOOF Group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised gains
arising from transactions with equity accounted investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent
of the IOOF Group's interest in the investee. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised
gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment. Dividends paid to the Trust are also
eliminated.
(c) Foreign currency
Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the foreign exchange rate prevailing at the date of the
transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are
translated to Australian dollars at the foreign exchange rate prevailing at that date. Foreign exchange
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
124
differences arising on translation are recognised in profit or loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are
measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of
the transaction.
Foreign operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on
consolidation, are translated to Australian dollars at foreign exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet
date. The revenue and expenses of foreign operations are translated to Australian dollars at rates
approximating the foreign exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign currency
differences are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve.
(d) Impairment
Non-derivative financial assets
A financial asset not measured at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to
determine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is impaired if objective
evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that the loss
event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that can be estimated reliably.
Objective evidence that financial assets (including equity securities) are impaired can include default or
delinquency by a debtor, restructuring of an amount due to the IOOF Group on terms that the IOOF Group
would not consider otherwise, indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy, adverse changes in the
payment status of borrowers or issuers in the IOOF Group, economic conditions that correlate with defaults or
the disappearance of an active market of a security. In addition, for an investment in an equity security, a
significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost is considered objective evidence of impairment.
Financial assets and liabilities at fair value through OCI
Impairment losses on equity investments at fair value through OCI are recognised by reclassifying the losses
accumulated in the investment revaluation reserve to profit or loss. The cumulative loss that is reclassified
from equity to profit or loss is the difference between the acquisition cost, net of any principal repayment and
amortisation, and the current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognised in profit or loss.
Changes in impairment provisions attributable to application of the effective interest method are reflected as a
component of interest income. If, in a subsequent year, the fair value of an impaired debt investment at fair
value through OCI increases and the increase can be related objectively to an event occurring after the
impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss, then the impairment loss is reversed, with the amount of the
reversal recognised in profit or loss. However, any subsequent recovery in the fair value of an impaired debt
investment at fair value through OCI is recognised in other comprehensive income.
Non-financial assets
The carrying amounts of the IOOF Group's non-financial assets, other than deferred tax assets, are reviewed
at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists,
then the asset's recoverable amount is estimated. For goodwill, and intangible assets that have indefinite
useful lives or that are not yet available for use, the recoverable amount is estimated each year at the same
time.
An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its related cash-generating unit (CGU)
exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value
less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present
IOOF Group Annual Report 2021
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 June 2021
125
value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and
the risks specific to the asset. Subject to an operating segment ceiling test, for the purposes of goodwill
impairment testing, CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated are aggregated so that the level at which
impairment is tested reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes.
Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from
the synergies of the combination.
Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are
allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units, and then to reduce the
carrying amounts of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis.
An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses
recognised in prior years are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased
or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to
determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying
amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or
amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.
Goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of an investment in an associate is not recognised separately,
and therefore is not tested for impairment separately. Instead, the entire amount of the investment in an
associate is tested for impairment as a single asset when there is objective evidence that the investment in an
associate may be impaired.
(e) Goods and service tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets (excluding receivables) are recorded net of GST. GST input tax credits are
initially recorded as an asset and GST collected as a liability. These balances are offset as at the reporting
date and recognised as either an amount receivable or payable to the Australian Taxation Office. The GST
portion relating to financial supplies and non-deductible expenditure, for which an input tax credit cannot be
claimed, is expensed or is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount
of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office is included with other receivables or
payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows
arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation
Office are presented as operating cash flows.

Adoption of new and revised Standards
New and amended Standards that are effective for the current year
The IOOF Group has adopted the following new or amended standards in preparing these consolidated
financial statements.
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) arrangements
The International Financial Reporting Standards Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) has issued two final
agenda decisions which impact SaaS arrangements:
Customer’s right to receive access to the supplier’s software hosted on the cloud (March 2019) – this
decision considers whether a customer receives a software asset at the contract commencement date or
a service over the contract term.
Configuration or customisation costs in a cloud computing arrangement (April 2021) – this decision
discusses whether configuration or customisation expenditure relating to SaaS arrangements can be
recognised as an intangible asset and if not, over what time period the expenditure is expensed.
The IOOF Group’s accounting policy has historically been to capitalise all costs related to SaaS arrangements
as prepaid assets in the Statement of Financial Position. The adoption of the above agenda decisions has
therefore not resulted in any change to the way in which SaaS arrangements are accounted for.
New and revised Standards in issue but not yet effective
At the date of authorisation of these financial statements, the IOOF Group has not applied the following new
and revised IFRS Standards that have been issued but are not yet effective:
New standards or amendments
Effective first financial
year ending
AASB 17 Insurance Contracts
30 June 2024
AASB 101 Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current (Amendments
to IAS 1)
30 June 2024
AASB 2020-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Annual
Improvements 2018-2020 and Other Amendments
30 June 2023
The directors do not expect that the adoption of the Standards listed above will have a material impact on the
financial statements of the IOOF Group in future periods, except as noted below:
AASB 17 Insurance Contracts
AASB 17 replaces AASB 4 Insurance Contracts and similarly applies to insurance contracts. The classification
of insurance contracts is similar to AASB 4 Insurance Contracts however unbundling rule changes may mean
some contract components now need to be measured under AASB 17.
The new standard contains a lower level of aggregation/smaller portfolios, changes to contract boundaries and
valuation approaches, the application of contractual service margins to policies valued under certain
methodologies, changes in treatment to reinsurance and an ability to use Other Comprehensive Income for
changes in asset values. The new standard also changes corresponding disclosure requirements.
The IOOF Group is in the process of assessing the potential impact of its consolidated financial statements
and the impact has not yet been determined, however will be relevant for IOOF Ltd. The IOOF Group plans to
adopt AASB 17 in the consolidated financial statements for the year ending 30 June 2024.

Subsequent events
The Directors have declared the payment of a final dividend of 9.5 cents per share and a special dividend of
2.0 cents per share, both franked to 100% based on tax paid at 30%, to be paid on 22 September 2021.
The Directors are not aware of any other matter or circumstance not otherwise dealt with in this report, or the
accompanying financial statements and notes thereto, that has arisen since 30 June 2021 that has significantly
affected, or may significantly affect:
the IOOF Group’s operations in future financial years; or
the results of those operations in future financial years; or
the IOOF Group’s state of affairs in future financial years.
