Scottish Widows to launch new pension scheme for joiners

Scottish
Widows yesterday announced plans to close its final salary pension scheme to
new members.

The
insurer said the move would bring it in line with other parts of the Lloyds TSB
group – which bought the company two years ago.

A
switch to a money purchase scheme will take effect from January 2003.
