Should pensions be personal?
I’m surprised to say that for the first time, the Pension Play voted unanimously after the 25th London lunch held at the Counting House on Monday December 5th. What, you might ask, could bring the following fine minds together in … Continue reading
24 cheers for The Pension Play Pen Lunch
There’s a fine tradition in this country of people getting together in coffee houses and taverns and sorting out how and with whom business should be transacted. This was how the insurance market was founded in London and it still is how … Continue reading

PPF II -opening the door for a better DC
We are where we are – the social contract has been decided… not compulsion but impulsion; impulsion into a DC pensions model that relies on the markets to deliver a second tier of pensions. Our retirements will be funded from employer and employee contributions over a … Continue reading

A pound spent on pension’s as good as salary – the new golden rule
I published a blog recently on the need for the DWP to take notice of the real concerns of the ASA. It got some really interesting comments made on various sites mainly opposing the ACA’s pessimism. Interestingly the pessimism of the actuaries mirrors … Continue reading
