NMA podcast: The NHS pension crisis

Tom and Emma speak to New Model Adviser editor Will Robins about the NHS pension crisis in this 35-minute podcast, recorded last November.

We explain how Annual Allowance taper rules have generated substantial tax bills for consultants, and what the effect of that has been on the number of hours they work, and their retirement planning.

You can read the full transcript of our conversation here.

The conversation also explores how the crisis has prompted doctors to rethink their work life balance, what the logjam in Westminster means for finding solutions to problems caused by the taper, and how holistic financial planning can put an entirely different perspective on the whole issue.
