Written Question
Equitable Life Assurance Society: Compensation
Tuesday 11th October 2022

Asked by: Tulip Siddiq (Labour - Hampstead and Kilburn)

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if he will require Willis Towers Watson to publish the assumptions and intermediate calculations used in calculating the relative losses of Equitable Life policyholders following maladministration.

Answered by Andrew Griffith - Minister of State (Department for Science, Innovation and Technology)

The Equitable Life Payment Scheme has been fully wound down and closed since 2016. The methodology for calculating payments to Equitable Life policyholders was published in 2011 and extensively reviewed and there are no plans to reopen any previous decisions relating to the Payment Scheme or review the £1.5 billion funding allocation previously made to it. Further guidance on the status of the Payment Scheme after closure is available at https://www.gov.uk/guidance/equitable-life-payment-scheme#closure-of-the-scheme.

The value of payments made to With-Profits Annuitants from the Equitable Life Payment Scheme in each financial year since 2019 is as follows:

2019-20 £31,137,789

2020-21 £30,246,425

2021-22 £27,986,074

The projected value of remaining payments to WPAs until 2050 is £251 million.
