Your Future Self Called: Pension Questions Women Should Ask

Your Future Self Called. She Has Questions About Your Pension. In this Finance on Friday session, Money Mentor Verity Brown talks through the pension basics women need to understand, without jargon or judgement. Pensions might not be the most exciting lunchtime topic, but they can have a huge impact on the choices your future self has later in life. In this session, Verity covers: The difference between defined benefit and defined contribution pensions How workplace pensions, personal pensions and SIPPs work Salary sacrifice, net pay and relief at source Pension tax relief and why it matters Why the gender pension gap affects women so significantly How career breaks, part-time work, caring responsibilities and self-employment can affect pension savings How to find old pension pots How to check your State Pension forecast and National Insurance record What to look at in contributions, charges, investment choices and beneficiaries When guidance or regulated financial advice may be useful This session is for women who want to understand what they currently have, what to check, and what one useful next step could be. You do not need to have everything organised before you watch. You do not need to know the jargon. And you do not need to understand pensions already. That is exactly why this session exists.
