But evidence suggests that new retirement risks and opportunities are not evenly distributed, and that current financial services policy and practice does not adequately meet the needs of an increasingly diverse older consumer population.\n The conference brought together academics/researchers and representatives from the financial services industry, ageing charities, and consumer groups, to discuss how we can create better outcomes for older consumers of financial services, and support people to meet their retirement needs more effectively.\n Download a summary of the conference here (PDF, 293KB)\n  \n Conference presentations You can choose to watch a video of the entire conference, or download and watch separate conference presentations from each speaker here: \n Chris Curry, Director of the Pensions Policy Institute Download conference slides (PDF, 396KB) Watch a video of this presentation Louise Overton, CHASM Download conference slides (PDF, 461 KB) Watch a video of this presentation  Ben Franklin, Head of Ageing Economics at ILC UK Download conference slides (PDF, 893 KB) Watch a video of this presentation Sue Lewis, Chair of the Financial Services Consumer Panel Download conference slides (PDF, 528 KB) Watch a video of this presentation Jane Vass, Head of Public Policy at Age UK Download conference slides (PDF, 547 KB) Watch a video of this presentation LOCATION:Euston, Friends Meeting House, London STATUS:CONFIRMED TRANSP:OPAQUE CLASS:PUBLIC END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
