Standard Life has teamed up with Barclays Insurance Services to offer pension term assurance (PTA). The two firms announced that the product, called B-Assured, will allow customers simple and competitive life insurance as well as tax relief on payments. Standard Life has developed a contract - with limited sums assured over fixed terms and a shortened application process - to enable Barclays to offer the product via its website. The agreement to enter the retail life assurance market through a high street bank is a new direction for Standard Life. The deal is set for three years.
