In London today presenting at #AJBellLuninary I’m covering the government’s desire to drive pension investment in UK plc, and what this means for advisers and clients. Great location and epic group of inspiring women (and men). My favourite day of the year. @Investcentre

Had a good day in London yesterday. Started with breakfast at House of Lords discussing @AJBMoneyMatters research on ISA investment gap. And ended watching Bridget Jones.
