Auto-enrolment

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has confirmed auto-enrolment (AE) contribution rate rises will be delayed until April 2018.

The Pensions Regulator (TPR) has selected Capita for a further three years to continue the roll-out of automatic enrolment (AE) to small and micro employers.

Pension experts have blasted auto-enrolment (AE) as "a glorified ISA" and "pointless scheme", warning savers will not get a decent retirement pot.

Smaller companies need to emulate the success of their larger competitors in encouraging employees to stay in workplace pensions, say experts.

The lifetime ISA (LISA) could severely damage the long-growth of savers' retirement pots, according to a report by the Pensions Policy Institute.

Auto-enrolment has been a success so far but we need to keep moving forward says Tim Sharp.

Without widespread engagement a two tier system could emerge based on employer commitment to delivering good member outcomes warns an industry panel.

Eddie Bernatek and Richard Evans have been made associate directors in the defined contribution (DC) team at Punter Southall Aspire.

The lifetime ISA (LISA) will not "decimate workplace pensions" according to an industry expert.

Aegon has called for the introduction of triggers for automatically increasing pension savings to tackle the issue of people not contributing enough.
