Standard Life chief executive Andy Briggs has attempted to allay concerns about what the acquisition of rival pensions company Aegon UK will mean for the two businesses.
The £2 billion deal announced in April has left employees and the wider sector awaiting news of what impact the tie-up will have on jobs, offices and the combined operations.
In an interview with our sister website Daily Business, Briggs says: “Edinburgh will be, by far, our biggest centre,” and offers reassurance to those concerned about jobs cut by saying that “if we lose people we could lose customers”.
