Industry leaders discuss how the government's guidance guarantee should work

The Pension Policy Institute (PPI) has launched a series of reports into the challenging decisions defined contribution (DC) pension savers face at retirement.

Increasing the take-up of the government's at-retirement guidance will be key in keeping pension savers informed of scams and fraudsters, the chief executive of TPAS says.

The government must make an "urgent decision" on the specifics of the guidance guarantee to ensure the April 2015 deadline is met, Friends Life has said.

Providers should be forced to deliver the guidance guarantee if they are to do the right thing by their customers says Fidelity's head of retirement insight Alan Higham.
