We have a strong track record serving the workplace savings market, where our GO technology is being used by many employers to help employees make proper provision for retirement. It is an exciting development for the firm to be diversifying into new areas, using our technology solutions to help investors outside of the workplace for the first time. We are delighted to be working with Aberdeen. We have a shared ambition to provide digital services to savers giving them better financial outcomes, providing simple solutions in the face of much more complexity.
