The Pensions Advisory Service (TPAS) has expressed concern after receiving 974 calls and enquiries about pension liberation over the past year.

The majority of UK defined contribution (DC) savers are not satisfied with their plans, according to research.

Pensions minister Steve Webb has given the clearest indication yet of the make-up of the government's retirement ‘guidance guarantee', which will include a clear "hand off" to full advice for those who need it.
