Here’s a company for once doing the right thing. Both Standard Life and Legal & General have flogged their ‘old style’ life assurance and pensions business to Reassure, a retirement home for many a brand you’ve once heard of, to focus on fancy modern investment platforms. Royal London have, very cleverly, gone the other way, and are ditching their not-so-fancy investment platform to concentrate on doing old-fashioned pension business properly. Good decision. I’d say.
