I have recently returned from nearly two months away from anything to do with pensions (well, aside from deciding I need a bigger fund to spend more time in all the places we visited, once we don’t have the kids in tow!).

Last year, a whirlwind of change hit the pensions industry as schemes and advisers raced to prepare for the removal of the lifetime allowance, while HMRC staff scratched their heads over exactly how it could be done before the end of tax year deadline, writes Beth Joslyn, of AJ Bell (standing in for Lisa Webster who is on holiday).

Following the changes introduced in the 2023 Budget, there has been some focus on how the death benefit rules might change.

As a much-changed Parliament gets up and running, we pension techies eagerly await the long overdue regulations to correct the drafting errors in this year’s Finance Act.
