Every pension journey has a beginning and deciding to start a pension plan is one of the smartest moves you can make. The good news is that it’s never too late to get on board, start your journey and take charge of your situation, regardless of where you’re at.

This session will give you all the info you need. We’ll chat about how pensions work, the different types of pensions, how much you need to retire comfortably, when you should start saving, and how to get started.

This event will set out a vision and practical steps for an SME EVP in 2022.

Using insights from research, recruitment, real-world, regulators, and benefits advisors, we’ll look at:

– What benefits employees really value;

– Wellness in the workplace;

– Benefits planning for senior managers and executives;

– The changing regulatory environment for SME pensions.

This year, it’s been impossible to ignore the markets. Driven by inflation, interest rates, supply-chain shortages and war, there have been significant declines in most markets – followed by a partial recovery in the summer.

This session looks at how you should invest your pension in 2022 and beyond. Which regions of the world are hot, and which are best avoided? Should you reallocate in or out of equities?  What’s the outlook for commodities and bonds?  

Whether it’s market ups and downs, new investment opportunities or new attitudes to existing investments, having a grip on how your pension is invested can make a big difference to your future.

Your destination is in sight. And while there are still a few stops to go it’s important to get your head around that final destination (and beyond!). You’ve worked hard for many years so it’s important that your pension is sufficient to suit the lifestyle you want and deserve in retirement. A little planning while on the road is worth the effort before you reach your destination.

This session designed exclusively for executives approaching retirement aims to make your transition from work to retirement smooth and enjoyable by carefully considering the relevant issues.

This event is aimed at the financial broker and pensions advisor community in association with LIA.
