Public Affairs
Overview
Scottish Widows’ business is to help people enjoy the freedom of a secure and prosperous retirement, because it’s what is important to them. It’s also about giving customers the peace of mind to deal with the unexpected.
In a dynamic and turbulent economic and political environment, it is important that the financial services market continues to allow Life and Pensions companies to deliver services and products that keep customers’ needs in the forefront. Since its establishment in 2004, the Public Affairs team of Scottish Widows has worked hard to influence and shape legislation in a way that benefits our business, shareholders and customers.
With a forward-thinking strategy and in partnership with a range of policy influencers, think tanks and charities, the Public Affairs team examines legislative and regulatory developments to protect both the industry and its consumers.
Through its cutting edge research on long-term policy issues affecting the industry, Scottish Widows has become one of the leading life and pensions companies for its contribution to public policy debates. 2009 has seen the release of the fifth Annual Scottish Widows Pensions Report and Women and Pensions Report, which take a close look at how people are preparing for retirement. In March, we will be launching our 2010 Savings and Investment Report which will reveal how peoples’ attitudes towards savings in the UK have shifted over the past couple of years, and in how their behaviour has changed in response to the difficult economic climate.
