Sessional meeting - Advice Gap in the market

Tue 14 Jan 2025 -
17:00 - 18:00 (GMT)

The research encompasses life, pension and investment, and the working party will align and build on existing research, both from within the profession and externally.
This is an opportunity to produce thought leadership that can be used to inform Government, the market and consumer groups.

A key objective is to demonstrate how adverse consequences of the advice gap could be mitigated if the ideas and conclusions of the research are followed.

Key objectives

• Evaluating the emergence of an advice gap post-RDR
• Assessing market distribution mechanisms by wealth segment
• Researching product choice and complexity in the new environment
• Considering the adverse consequences of the advice gap and two-tier market for consumers and society
• Highlighting potential solutions and mechanisms to mitigate regulatory and market failure.

The working party paper will be published before the event.
