Scottish Widows has suggested there is demand for additional savings vehicles in the current market.
A spokesperson for Scottish Widows has suggested the new corporate ISA accounts launched by the firm could help people with their financial planning.John Taylor, market director for corporate pensions at the company, claimed the new product was created as a result of demand for more workplace savings options.
The arrangement, unveiled via Scottish Widows' mymoneyworks platform, is designed to complement the existing cash ISA on offer.
It was released in order to give clients more flexibility and choice within their savings strategies, according to the firm.
Mr Taylor added: "Following the launch of mymoneyworks in 2010, we have been looking at ways to allow employees to better plan their financial futures."
The ISAs will consist of two parts - the Self-Select Stocks & Shares ISA and the Self-Select Funds ISA.
This week, Scottish Widows announced the black cloak famously worn by a model in the company's advertising campaigns over the past 25 years is set to go on display at the National Museum of Scotland.
