Ben is joined once again this week by Paul Gordon, our almost resident pensions expert (!) Now Head of Medical Specialist Wealth Planning at Atomos, Paul returns to update us on the most recent changes to the NHS Pension, namely the launch of a new consultation which could relieve some of the issues and confusion which surround the existing pension offer. What are the key elements of this new consultation, particularly in relation to retirement? And how could these changes lead to an improvement in the retention of staff? Ben and Paul tackle these topics (and more) in our final Ockham podcast of 2022.
