The Special Members’ Share
We're a mutual and with no shareholders we're owned and run for the benefit of our members, which include our main fund With-Profits policyholders such as you.
As a With-Profits policyholder in our main fund you share in the profits (or losses) that Scottish Friendly makes each year, which are awarded retrospectively to you - we like to call this the ‘Special Members’ Share’.
To ensure The Special Members’ Share is fairly distributed each year our Board, having considered advice from the With-Profits Actuary, decides how the underlying investment return (positive or negative) of the assets backing your policy should be increased or reduced to reflect any profits (or losses) from Scottish Friendly.
For example, With-Profits policyholders joining us just before 2015 have seen a total enhancement to their investment value of 5.3% as a result of the Special Members’ Share.
