I have been looking at my diary over the past two weeks and the week to come and I find all the excitement has come and is coming from meetings with the author if SeLFIES, the folk down at Nest and the bright northerners from Leeds – TLT.

Nest is running a webinar on Monday on how we can include more of our population in workplace pensions.It’s good to see them talking about delivering pensions to its 14m pot holders!

I’ve talked a lot about Paul Todd’s statements made on the IFS podcast and here is Gareth Turner talking to Louise Farrand of DCIF.

It will be after the week that The Pensions Trust announced their new plan,details of which were announced in the Tate Modern. I was very sad not to be at that event but I’m glad to be another step towards recovery (thanks to University College Hospital).

Here’s boss David Lane who sent me a kind not (as did Phil Smith)

I enjoy these guys commitment in the longer term to CDC but here is a product you can use now. They got the Pensions Minister along (for the second time lately) and clearly they are in favor with the lads and lasses from Caxton Street.

As if that wasn’t enough, here’s the presentation to the Pension PlayPen by Arun Muralidhar on the topic that will be Nest’s – how to include those who don’t save into pensions to save for retirement income.

Am I building up a picture of how my life is right now? Well come on insurers, it is time that you show us your cards , or if you haven’t got any ideas how to develop your business, talk to me. I can make some introductions or perhaps introduce you to some of this lot plus Aon and  WTW who I’m told are secretly building CDC themselves.
