Standard Life is launching its first dedicated inheritance tax planning service by year-end, targeting families soon to face new tax rules—including pensions and death benefits—set for April 2027. Simultaneously, the firm is re-entering the onshore investment bond market to help clients adapt to shifting financial landscapes and budget-driven estate impacts. Backed by strong H1 profits fueled by new business and pension risk transfer demand, Standard Life remains on track for 2026 targets, boosted by AI-driven cost savings. With a major Aegon UK acquisition in the works, they’re poised to become the UK’s largest pensions and savings provider—signaling a bold push to dominate the financial services sector.
