A message from our Chair

Transforming AMP
Purpose led and customer focused

I am pleased to present the AMP Limited Annual report for 2022.

It has been a year of substantial progress as we transform AMP into a customer-focused and purpose-led business. The strength and reliability of AMP has proved to be important as we supported our customers and the community through another challenging period, marked by rising interest rates and cost of living, ongoing impacts of the pandemic, and damaging floods in many parts of Australia.

CEO message: Q&A

The journey to a simpler AMP

Q: When you look back on 2022, what are you most proud of?

A:   I am proud of what we have been able to achieve in 2022. Top of the list has been the renewed energy in the organisation, supported by AMP’s new purpose – helping people create their tomorrow. It reinforces how we put the customer at the centre of everything we do, and has galvanised our people around our purpose‑led, customer-focused strategy.
