National Grid offloads $3.4 bln of UK pension risk to Rothesay Life
Britain's largest specialist annuity insurer Rothesay Life said on Tuesday the National Grid UK Pension Scheme had transferred 2.8 billion pounds ($3.43 billion) worth of pension risks to the insurer. British companies are increasingly offloading risks linked to their pension schemes to specialist insurance companies, partly because of increased life expectancy.

Rothesay chalks up another record with Allied Domeq pension deal
British-based Rothesay Life broke new ground for the burgeoning pension risk transfer industry on Friday, striking an insurance deal that protects the retirement savings of the largest-ever number of yet-to-retire members.
