The positive news from the with-profits bonus season continues with the end of January's announcement from Standard Life. They have strongly increased their terminal bonus rates across almost every policy term.

The terminal bonus rate for a 25 year Standard Life policy has risen by over 50%.

David Carrington, sales & marketing director at PolicyPlus commented,

"After a number of years of underperforming the market, Standard Life has finally bounced back with this strong declaration.
