Almost half (46%) of women do not think they have saved enough into their pension pot for retirement, new data suggests. Research shows men are much more confident in their later-life savings with only a third (35%) concerned they have not set aside enough money.
The new research from workplace pension and savings fintech Cushon, conducted as part of its new white paper, comes at a time when value for money of pensions is being questioned, with the UK Government recently consulting on the issue, and its findings due to be published later this year. In its new white paper, Cushon is calling on the UK Government and industry to start listening to employees to drive pensions engagement and ultimately ensure better value for money, reports the Daily Record.
As a result of the ongoing cost of living crisis, more than one in four (26%) large businesses are reporting an increase in the number of employees pulling out of workplace pensions, with the numbers expected to rise.
