WTW asks “why is the PPF proposing to charge £100m of levies in 2024/25?”
My good friends Jo Shepard and David Robbins have clubbed up to write a blog on the PPF levy which I shamelessly re-blog without amendment – as I agree and cannot aspire to improving what they write in any … Continue reading
DB surpluses are not “the golden opportunity” of the Mansion House reforms.
WTW (as we now must call Willis Towers Watson) have identified the use of surplus as conclusive to the WTW perspective ( a four page PDF which finishes with this call to action). It would have been as unimaginable for … Continue reading
WTW ‘s “golden opportunity” – to put into practice what Mansion House preaches
I am surprised and pleased that Willis Towers Watson have come out in support of the Mansion House reforms as a pension reset. It has published its various responses in one place and I will digging into some of them … Continue reading
Congratulations to Royal Mail on Britain’s first authorised CDC scheme
A sight many of us thought we would never see…. It is hugely satisfying that after so long, we can finally say that there is an authorised CDC scheme. Many congratulations to the management of Royal Mail , to its … Continue reading
WTW can bring pensions to life for DC savers, but they need our help.
The headline says everything that is right about Willis Towers Watson’s intention and captures the problem it is facing. The DC saver needs a simple way to turn their pot to a pension, but breathing life into “CDC or “Collective … Continue reading

“We have a financial literacy problem, not a product scarcity problem!”.
This article is about what we can learn from Australia about “choice architecture” and how we can avoid leaving the important policy decisions too late, as I believe the Australians have done. As she learns the ropes, I hope that … Continue reading
Why the time for a new type of pension is NOW!
Tomorrow (Tuesday 15th) I will be talking with Simon Eagle of Willis Towers Watson on what a new pension based on CDC principles but open to anyone with a DC pot that can be drawn down. Go to http://www.pensionplaypen.com , … Continue reading
Canada also moving from Scheme to Retail CDC plans.
I am hoping that we can find ideas from abroad that can help us deliver what was discussed in last week’s retail CDC debate, namely a simple product that provides more income and doesn’t run out before we do. Yesterday, … Continue reading
WTW take on the nastiest hardest problem in finance – treading the pension pathway.
Some years back, Con Keating failed to convince a similar audience at a similar event about the merits of a CDC scheme as an alternative way to provide a pension. Only 8% of the audience said they’d want to be … Continue reading
