E4: The gender pension gap: what is it and how can we tackle it?
Listen now
Description
Research from PensionBee tells us that women face real obstacles when it comes to creating a comfortable retirement. In fact, the average disparity between men and women’s pensions is 38% and has grown to almost 60% in some parts of the UK.   So, how did we get here? What’s standing in the way of women saving enough for their retirement? And what can we do about this problem? Joining us to discuss all of this more are Romi Savova, CEO of PensionBee, Sam Brodbeck, Personal Finance Editor at The Telegraph and Emilie Bellet, founder of the financial education company Vestpod.
