In our last RP poll, we asked do you think employers are interested in using low cost pensions such as NEST as part of their pension provision post auto-enrolment?

The majority of you (67%) said employers are not interested in low-cost solutions.  The remainder (33%) believe they are.

Most Definitely

Having voted "No" in this Poll, perhaps a Nationised Annuity Advisory Brokerage would give valuable insight to the Government and FSA/FCA about the real issues within our industry. No subsidy or industry funding - just the same commercial terms as every other player.
