LONDON (Reuters) - British insurer Legal and General <LGEN.L> said on Thursday that it had closed a deal to insure 4.4 billion pounds ($5.73 billion) of British Airways' historic pensions liabilities.
The transaction, which Legal and General said was the largest ever bulk annuity policy arranged with a UK pension scheme, also included the conversion of existing longevity insurance to a bulk annuity.
Nigel Wilson, chief executive of Legal & General, said the company expects to announce further transactions in the next few months.
