 Pensioner buy-in with the Tate & Lyle Group Pension Scheme
  
 Legal & General has entered into a £347m pensioner buy-in with the Trustee of the Tate & Lyle Group Pension Scheme. The Trustee of the scheme will hold the L&G bulk annuity policy as an investment to hedge 43% of the pensioner liabilities.
  
 Legal & General was able to demonstrate a flexible approach to structure the contract to meet the Trustee's requirements and, once selected as preferred provider, L&G worked closely with the Trustee and its advisers to execute in a manner that provided certainty and transparency.
  
 This is the largest bulk annuity transaction announced in 2012 by a UK pension scheme. The transaction demonstrates L&G's ability to win large scale bulk annuity business, supported by expert capability in longevity science and asset/liability matching. This enables us to meet both the client's needs and our target returns on economic capital. The transaction builds on the £480m of Bulk Purchase Annuities completed in 2012 at the end of Q3, and successful £1.1bn bulk annuity deal with the Trustee of the Turner & Newall Scheme in October 2011.
