About the changes
Standard Life has been part of Phoenix Group since 2018. On 27 October 2023 policies and plans from Standard Life* transferred to Phoenix Life Limited, which is also part of Phoenix Group. Phoenix Life Limited is now your provider and responsible for your policy or plan. Don’t worry, the transfer has not made any changes to the Standard Life brand or experience you know us for.
We followed a rigorous process which included consulting with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA), Central Bank of Ireland (CBI), and an Independent Expert. Our transfer proposals were approved by the High Court in London and the Court of Session in Edinburgh as well as the Royal Courts of Jersey and Guernsey.
*Standard Life refers to Standard Life Assurance Limited and Standard Life Pension Funds Limited.
Important documents
A range of documents were created to support our proposals to transfer the Standard Life Assurance (SLAL) and Standard Life Pension Funds (SLPF) business to Phoenix Life Limited (PLL).
Please note: in some of the more technical documents, such as the actuarial reports, you will see Phoenix Life Limited referred to as ‘Phoenix’. Several of the documents contain a table of definitions.
