Scottish Widows has appointed Anna Bradley as the new chair of its Independent Governance Committee (IGC).
Bradley formerly served as the Zurich Independent Governance Committee’s chair and an independent board member. She has experience in a number of different industries, including legal, financial services, utilities, and health. Currently, she serves as the chair of the Solicitors Regulation Authority and the senior independent director of the Board of pay.uk.
Bradley has over 20 years of experience in consumer advocacy and specialises in regulation and policy. She formerly served as a director at the Financial Services Authority and chief executive of the National Consumer Council.
Bradley succeeds Mark Stewart, a committee member for the last eight years and chair for the last three.
Bradley says: “I’m delighted to be given this opportunity to build on the work that Mark and the rest of the committee have already accomplished. I feel fortunate to be joining at a point at which Scottish Widows is close to completing significant digital development work, which will open the window to a different sort of engagement with members of pension schemes and I hope will help to give members a greater sense of ownership over their pension.”
Stewart says: “It’s been a privilege to chair the IGC over the last three years and work with an excellent group of colleagues to ensure that Scottish Widows’ delivers the best outcomes possible for its workplace pension customers. I’m confident that Anna will continue the great progress we’ve made.”
Scottish Widows workplace director Graeme Bold says: “I’d like to thank Mark for the huge contribution he’s made to the Scottish Widows IGC and welcome Anna as the new Chair. I look forward to working with Anna, with her wealth of experience, to ensure Scottish Widows continues to deliver the best value for customers.”
