BBC Radio 4 - Money Box, Pension Freedom Special

Paul Lewis presents a special programme on pension liberalisation.

With just over a week until 'Pension Freedom Day', Paul Lewis presents a programme on what pension liberalisation will mean for those aged 55 or over approaching retirement.

From 6th April those aged 55+ will enjoy much greater freedom over what they can do with their individual pension pots.

Paul Lewis talks to a panel of experts from the public, private and charitable sectors about what those approaching retirement can and cannot do with their pension funds.

Money Box looks at what the impact of this change is likely to be, the potential dangers, the tax and benefit implications and where to get the free guidance, or whether to opt for paid for regulated advice.

Joining the programme will be: Alan Higham, Fidelity; Flora Maudsley-Barton, Parsonage Financial; Michelle Cracknell, TPAS; and Sally West, Age UK.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
