2002 Annual Report
2. “Nationwide is on your side.”
It’s short and simple. It even rhymes. Perhaps that’s why our slogan has become one of the best known in
corporate America.
Message
More importantly, being on your side is what we do. It is an attitude that defines our businesses and guides
our every action.
from the
We are on the side of our customers, providing them with products and services that make it possible to
own homes, drive cars, start businesses, protect families, and plan for the future. The breadth of our
Chief
offerings is designed to meet life’s most important needs, from auto insurance to retirement savings
plans.

We are on the side of the professionals who sell our products and services, and provide the advice our
Officer
customers need to make educated choices. For Nationwide to earn distinction as their preferred
partner, our companies must provide the most valuable solutions and the highest level of support
possible. And so every day we strive to be the best partner for the more than 31,000 agents who
work with us, as well as thousands of additional partners in our vast financial services distribution
network.
We are also on the side of our stakeholders who rely on Nationwide to deliver on its promises. Nationwide’s
more than 30,000 associates take our heritage as a strong customer advocate and a responsible
corporate citizen very seriously. We understand that building our financial strength allows us to
deliver on our promises to our customers and to continue our philanthropic commitments to those
members of our communities who are in need.
In 2002, we strengthened Nationwide’s financial foundation. Statutory net income improved from a net loss
of $295 million in 2001 to a net gain of $252 million in 2002.
The fundamentals underlying our property and casualty units – Nationwide Insurance, Allied, Scottsdale,
and Farmland – improved markedly. Pricing actions, profitability initiatives, and favorable prior-
year reserve development drove significant improvements in underwriting results. Each unit posted
a trade combined ratio – the amount of losses and expenses paid for each dollar earned – that
was significantly better than the prior year and the industry average. Our largest business unit,
Nationwide Insurance, achieved a combined ratio of 97.3 percent.
Challenging economic conditions, both in the United States and abroad, hampered the performance of
Nationwide Financial, Nationwide Global and Gartmore, as well as our Strategic Investments. It
would be easy to use negative market conditions as an excuse for our performance, but we won’t.
Our pledge to you is that we will improve the performance in these business units. We also realize
that beneficial growth opportunities often reveal themselves during tough times. During 2002, we
seized several such opportunities in our retirement savings businesses, positioning Nationwide to
achieve better sustainable performance going forward.
We improved our market reach and competitive standing in 2002, positioning Nationwide to continue its
legacy of being on your side for the future. We expanded consumer finance offerings to include a
new, 10-minute mortgage program through Nationwide Advantage Mortgage Company. With the
addition of Provident Mutual Life Insurance Company, now called Nationwide Provident, our life and
retirement savings franchise is now the country’s third-largest provider of variable life insurance.
We are a family of companies linked by consistent values and a common heritage of working together with
customers, business partners and stakeholders. “On your side” may have originated as an insurance
company tagline, but it has evolved into a commitment on which our entire enterprise stakes its
reputation.
We thank you for your commitment to Nationwide, and we pledge to remain on your side as you manage a
lifetime of milestone events and changing needs.
W. G. Jurgensen, Chief Executive Officer

2) Nationwide, concurrent with the initial public offering of Nationwide Financial Services, Inc. (NFS), elected to change its
carrying value in NFS from statutory equity to market value discounted by 24 percent in accordance with prescribed statutory
accounting practices. This discount from market value is a result of Nationwide retaining control and ownership of more than
63 percent of the outstanding common stock of NFS. The statutory equity of NFS and the corresponding equity investment in
subsidiary were eliminated in preparing these combined financial statements. However, the increased value of $1,033,818
($1,913,537 in 2001) from carrying Nationwide’s share of NFS at discounted market value remains as an asset on the balance
sheet, and the change in this asset from year to year is reflected as an unrealized capital gain (loss) in the Surplus for
Policyholders’ Protection.
3) Other surplus changes include the change in deferred taxes and surplus note issuance.
