Transfer value analysis should be replaced with a comparison showing the value of the benefits being given up, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) says.

Andy Agathangelou has expressed concern the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) could allow the Investment Association (IA) to write its own cost disclosure rules.

Wake-up packs, savers' abilities to shop around, and looking at how to close loopholes for pension scammers will be key priorities for the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) over the next few years, the watchdog has announced.
