Standard Life annuities are suitable for both pensions and investments depending on what you are looking to achieve.
Standard Life annuities can be established in two main ways, either on a traditional basis, with the amount of the annuity fixed from outset or, for those willing to take on an element of investment risk, Standard Life annuities can be linked to their With Profits Annuity Fund in order to provide investors with a potentially increasing income over the years.
Standard Life are one of the largest financial institutions in the UK and in addition has offices in Canada, Hong Kong, Europe and North America, offering a wide range of banking, insurance, healthcare, investment and annuity solutions for its investors. Standard Life began life in 1825 and in 2006 demutualised and is now listed on the London Stock Exchange.
