Research by the firm Aon Consulting has shown that the value of defined contribution pensions has fallen from a total of £550bn in September 2007 to £410bn at the end of January 2008 according to a report by moneymarketing.co.uk.
I think Gordon Brown, UK premier, will have to increase the tax advantages of personal pensions since people will otherwise decide that these investment vehicles are not worth the candle. I am thinking about putting a modest monthly amount in a pension for 15 years and probably the sum and the time period are not sufficient. I will probably invest in a tracker but it could be quite diminished by the charges, which mount up in time.
