| | FTSE 100 ON TRACK TO WIPE OUT PENSIONS DEFICIT BY END OF 2004 |
| | Based on estimates by Morgan Stanley that the pensions deficit of FTSE 100 companies was £ 65 billion at the end of 2002, Aon Consulting used this figure and the average asset allocation to project the assets and the liabilities of the FTSE 100 companies' pension fund assets and liabilities to the end of 2004. | | | Alternative scenarios that would also see the overall pensions deficit of the FTSE 100 wiped out include a rise in the FTSE 100 to 5600, or an increase in corporate bond yields to 6.3 percent and a rise in the FTSE 100 to 5000. | | | Updating analysis released in October 2003 to take into the latest investment bank estimates, Aon Consulting research suggests that the overall pensions deficit for the FTSE 100 is forecast to fall from £65 billion in December 2003 to £40 billion in 2004. |

| | One thing's for sure: if being socially responsible in the eyes of FTSE is too much of a burden on bottom-line performance, there are not many investors that will stick around for a second beating. | | | Uranium is certainly not mentioned in the reserves and resources section of the group's 2000 Annual Report - which leads us to assume then that Anglo American is uranium-free. | | | Put in context, mining houses account for a significant 13% portion of the FTSE-100, but in the "ethical stakes" the industry rates a fat zero. |
