Scottish pensioners will have to wait more than a decade longer than their English counterparts to enjoy a third of their adult life in retirement under state pension reforms, according to the Pensions Policy Institute (PPI).

The Department for Work and Pensions' (DWP) consultation on limiting charges for schemes used for auto-enrolment (AE) was not transparent enough, according to the Pensions Policy Institute (PPI).

Trustees making scheme registration enquiries to HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) before making transfers have faced up to a five-month wait, PP can reveal.

The Pensions Regulator (TPR) investigated more than 500 suspected breaches of auto-enrolment (AE) legislation in just six months and 590 in total since October 2012, PP can reveal.

An overhauled EU pensions directive will encourage the development of cross-border schemes by dropping the requirement for them to be fully funded at all times, says Towers Watson.

Draft legislation to introduce legally enforceable prenuptial agreements to the UK could lead to a "surge in workload" for schemes according to an admin provider.
