47% of women do not have pension provision
Research by Baring Asset Management has shown that 47% of women who have not yet retired in the UK have not made any pension provision.
This figure has gradually been increasing year-on-year and for 2009 and 2008 was 40% and 39% respectively.
The research highlights other areas of concern:
- 22% of people aged 55 – 64 do not have a Pension
- 1 million people over age 65 still working
- 4 out of 10 people age 25 – 34 do not have a pension plan
- 1 in 3 people aged 35 – 44 do not have a pension plan
The results then go on to highlight that different areas of the UK are affected differently. Alarmingly 47% in the North West do not have any pension plan compared to that of 27% in Wales.
