The Pilkington Superannuation Scheme completed a pensioner buy-in with Pension Insurance Corporation (PIC) for £230m in July 2016, shortly after the UK’s referendum on EU membership. With economic markets proving to be particularly volatile, an opportunity to complete a buy-in at an attractive price emerged. PIC’s Jay Shah shares what made the Pilkington Superannuation Scheme look attractive to them as an insurance provider and the benefits of being able to move to a transaction quickly and with confidence.
