    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Welcome to City AM’s comprehensive 2026 Pension Special Supplement. With total pension assets of $3.2 trillion, the UK has the world’s fourth-largest retirement market. However, the landscape is swiftly evolving as defined benefit schemes give way to defined contribution structures and self-directed Self-Invested Personal Pensions (SIPPs). What’s more, recent changes to the tax and regulatory environment are forcing savers and investors to fundamentally rethink their approach to pensions. The tw

    Scotch Whisky’s slightly sore head (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    In a recent in-depth analysis of the Scotch whisky industry, the FT painted a grim picture of suppressed demand and an ever-rising tide of maturing spirit. Will distilleries and jobs be swept away in another great whisky loch? Tom Bruce-Gardyne believes such talk is way too pessimistic The week-end before last, the FT went big on ‘Scotch whisky’s hangover’ – as it titled a full-page expose of the industry’s current woes. The report by the paper’s Scotland correspondent, Simeon Kerr and its consu

    Laphroaig turns to cocktails to drive growth (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

Laphroaig is one of the most established brands in the Scotch industry, and there’s not a single bar in the country that doesn’t have a bottle firmly established on the shelf behind the bar. ​For many consumers, Laphroaig is synonymous with the category and was probably their first introduction to Scotch.

Scotch whisky makes up roughly a quarter (23 per cent) of Pernod Ricard’s global sales, but barely got a look-in at the Paris-based drinks giant’s annual results at the end of August.

    The Highland tourist tax: Is Scotland pricing out whisky tourists? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The latest available data from the Scottish Tourism Economic Activity Monitor in Scotland (STEAM) shows that between 2012 and 2024, visitor numbers to the Highlands increased 82 per cent to 9.4m. Spending increased by a similar amount, to £2.1bn. A large share of that is directly linked to the Scotch whisky sector.
