PFS WEBINAR - FCA focus on pension transfers and the decumulation market

This session will not focus on the minutiae of the FCA Defined Benefit policy statement 20/6.

However, it will refer to the good (and bad) practice examples that accompanied the policy statement, with a view on how this is likely to impact upon future DB and DC pension advice.

The session will start at 09:30 promptly. It is advisable to log in 5-10 minutes early in case of any technical issues.

The presentation will last for 1 hour, followed by a short period for questions. Please send any questions before the event to Mark MacLean at mark@harperlees.co.uk

There will also be an opportunity to raise questions through the ‘chat’ option on the day.
