UBS has increased its price target for Legal & General Group PLC to 260p from 250p but kept a neutral rating, suggesting the shares are near full value around 271p. This comes as the UK bulk purchase annuity (BPA) market heats up with major acquisitions in 2025, fueling takeover speculation for L&G, which has 60% of its business in annuities. UBS's valuation, based on recent BPA deal multiples, implies a fair value of 280p per share, but competitive pressures and new market entrants may limit price gains. The broker highlights that L&G's annuity returns are in line with peers, and increasing competition could constrain future pricing improvements in the £1 trillion UK defined benefit pension scheme market.
