Where is your
pension actually invested?
You’ll spend forty-odd years putting money into this thing. And no one ever tells you where it is actually invested. Your provider tells the regulator, they don’t tell you. We’ve worked out an estimate from what they do publish, and lined it up next to how an Australian pension is invested.

What you can do
Twenty-two million British workers can’t see what their pension is invested in.
The regulators already have all of this information. They’re deciding right now whether to put it where you can see it, or keep handing out the industry’s tidied-up average. Sign the letter and tell them to publish.
