TISA response to the Queen’s Speech
Responding to the announcements on retirement savings in the Queen’s Speech, Carol Knight, operations director at TISA said:
“We applaud the increased focus on savings for retirement. Giving people more choice in how they save, complementing the recently announced increased freedoms regarding the options at retirement, is a positive step towards ensuring that people build up a pension pot sufficient to meet their needs. We look forward to continuing to work with government to make their proposals work to help deliver more choice and more competition. Together, we believe that will be good for people saving for retirement, and good for saving.”

Notes for Editors
TISA
TISA is a not-for-profit membership association operating within the financial services industry. We represent the interests of over 145 member firms involved in the supply and distribution of savings and investment products and services.
TISA has a highly successful track record in working cooperatively with government, regulators, HMT, DWP and HMRC to improve the performance of the industry and the outcomes for consumers. Policy and regulation continues to be the major focus for our members with regard to corporate responsibility.
TISA and its members’ remit is evolving into a clearer focus on pro-active consultation in the regulatory world in order to influence policy and associated regulation before its creation, rather than reacting to issued policy directives. This will help to ensure a more considered policy creation from the authorities.
