We’re one of the UK’s leading annuity providers, offering both standard and enhanced rates. We’re confident that we can offer your client an annuity that suits their individual needs.

We are proud:

• to be listed on the Financial Times Stock Exchange (FTSE) and ranked among the top 100 UK companies (FTSE 100).
• that more than 730,000 pension customers have placed their trust in us to pay them a regular income. In the last 12 months we have paid our customers over £1.3 billion in pension income.
• to be a quality all-rounder. As well as our standard rate product, we offer enhanced rates to those clients with one or more lifestyle health risks or medical conditions.
• to offer both standard and enhanced annuities from as little as £5,000 (after any tax free cash has been paid).
• to be innovators in the annuity market having championed the practice of postcode pricing, whereby customers providing us with their postcode could receive a higher income.
• as at 31 December 2012, to have surplus capital (after interim dividend) of £4.1 billion more than the minimum level required to help ensure financial stability and strong cash flow.
