Rothesay Life PLC said Tuesday that National Grid PLC (NG.LN) pension scheme has recently concluded a 2.8 billion-pound ($3.4 billion) buy-in policy transaction.

The buy-in policy is in respect of 'Section A' of the National Grid U.K. pension scheme, Rothesay said.

"The buy-in provides greater certainty and assurance about the future costs of providing members' pensions, and we see this as a positive and prudent way of managing the overall funding and risk of the scheme," Chairman and Trustee of National Grid U.K. Pension Scheme Nigel Stapleton said.
