Budget prompts pensions wave
Changes to pension contribution schemes announced in the Budget have prompted 7.3m people to start saving for retirement or increase contributions, a new report reveals. A report by pensions specialist Ros Altmann, released today, found 41 per cent of retirement savers admit they do not understand pension saving schemes, but 24 per cent – around 7.3m people – now plan to step up their retirement savings.
