This working party will investigate long terms guarantees on pensions, savings, protection and annuity products.
Key objectives:
The two key questions to be answered are:
- Do long term insurance guarantees have a future in the UK?
- What could be done to make them more affordable and attractive?
Additional areas we also plan to investigate are:
- Can these products be simplified to ensure that the customer understands the features/risks?
- Is there consumer confidence / a market for these products following Equitable Life and mis-selling of endowment mortgages?
- How viable are these products in a low interest environment?
- What new products and features could be developed to meet any need?
- Are there any limitations imposed by current capital requirements that would require to be overcome?
Key outputs:
-
