    I've got one question that's not anwsered:

    "Will stamp duty (0.5%) be included in the shares bought at the fixed price initial offer or only for Standard Life shares bought after shares commence trading"?

    There was no stamp duty to pay on extra shares bought at the fixed price IPO when Friends Provident floated.

    Is there a way of checking that the right number of shares have been allocated.

    I have a SL Endowment Policy and also a SL Capital Investment Bond.

    I have been allocated 365 shares. Do I just accept that that is the correct number.
