An update from Phoenix Group Holdings ( (GB:SDLF) ) is now available.
Standard Life has granted senior executives share-based awards under its 2018 Deferred Bonus Share Scheme and Long Term Incentive Plan, using a reference price of £6.698 per ordinary share. The nil-cost options, awarded to the chief executive, chief financial officer and other key managers, reflect deferred bonuses for the 2025 financial year and are scheduled to vest in March 2029.
Additional LTIP awards, also structured as nil-cost options, will vest subject to performance criteria assessed over the three years to 31 December 2028, followed by a two-year post-vesting holding period. The move further aligns leadership remuneration with long-term shareholder value and complies with UK market abuse and disclosure regulations governing dealings by persons discharging managerial responsibilities.
