Are you worried about the Panorama Pension news last night?

My clients are not.
For anyone who attended my Pension Review Seminars in 2009 the news that the Co-op have one of the most expensive plans is not news – I used data from the Financial Services Authority website to demonstrate that over 18 months ago.
Have I ever advised a client to have a Co-Op Individual Personal Pension, an HSBC World Selections Personal Pension or Legal and General's Co-funds Portfolio Pension ? – No.
Are charges one of the ways in which pensions can be worth less than you thought? Yes!
Is this the only factor? – No! Of course not, but it is one of three main factors. And over-charging on old style pensions is a problem.
It is just one of three, along with poor performance and lack of monitoring and management in line with your personal attitude to risk and volatility that contribute to under performing pensions.
