Investors' focus would be on what management had to say regarding progress on its strategic initiatives.
UBS analyst Nasib Ahmed said that delivery on those goals would narrow Prudential's 20% valuation discount relative to its nearest peer, AIA.
Ahmed pegged Prudential's first half APE sales at $3.16bn with new business profit seen coming in at $1.46bn.
Operating profits of $1.42bn were expected, against consensus at $1.5bn.
The consensus estimate for Prudential's dividend per share was 6.83p.
