Who we are

Our story began more than 190 years ago in the UK as Scottish Equitable; today we’re part of Aegon.

We’re a leading UK investment platform focused on financial wellbeing. We work with customers, advisers and employers to deliver pensions, savings and investment solutions that help people plan for the future.

Life is full of unexpected, brilliant moments.

For over 190 years we've supported people across the UK, watching lives grow longer and richer with new choices.

That’s why we help people make the most of every minute — whether they’re starting out or planning the next stage.

We partner with employers and advisers to provide pensions, savings and investment solutions that give people the confidence to pursue their goals.

We aim to help people stay resilient through difficult times and to leave a better world for future generations.

Your best life can begin today.

We aim to be a positive force — lowering our environmental impact, encouraging responsible investing and supporting local communities.

We’re a founding partner of the Institute of Financial Wellbeing and run Pension Geeks, our educational platform for clearer retirement learning.

We support people at every age and stage of life.

There isn’t one standard path through life today. That’s why our purpose is to

Help people live their best lives
