Theresa May's surprise announcement to hold a general election on 8 June has thrown into doubt the future of the state pension triple lock and qualifying age.

Emergency tax codes for one-off withdrawals under Freedom and Choice are leaving savers significantly overpaying on their tax bills, when in many cases they should pay no tax at all.

The government has been urged to allow Lifetime ISA (LISA) savers to use their pots to pay for financial advice, putting the product on par with pensions and other ISAs.

A prototype of the pensions dashboard has been demonstrated to government ministers on time, the Association of British Insurers (ABI) has announced.

The government should scrap the state pension 'triple lock' and replace it with an earnings link, according to John Cridland's long-anticipated review.

The government has confirmed that "now is not the right time" to undertake significant reform of pensions tax policy, such as moving to a flat rate of tax relief.

The Treasury has rejected calls to change its mind on a planned cut to the money purchase annual allowance (MPAA) due to take effect next month.

The National Employment Savings Trust (NEST) will not expand its decumulation offering to enter the drawdown market, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has confirmed.

Pension professionals have reacted with outrage to Treasury plans to cut the money purchase annual allowance (MPAA) from £10,000 to £4,000 from April.

The Treasury has announced that from April savers will be given tax-free early access to their retirement pots in order to pay for advice.
