Majority of people face retirement with insufficient savings – interactive investor
The Great British Retirement Survey looked at issues like savings gaps, pension knowledge, working later in life and the Great Wealth Transfer.
Two thirds of people in Britain are heading towards retirement without enough savings for a comfortable life, according to the sixth Great British Retirement Survey by interactive investor.
The research found confidence in the state pension dropped, personal debt in retirement rose, and younger generations struggled with long-term planning.
The survey looked at issues like savings gaps, pension knowledge, working later in life and the Great Wealth Transfer.
Richard Wilson, CEO at interactive investor, said: “We are delighted to invite you to an exclusive lunch briefing to discuss the findings of this year’s Great British Retirement Survey.
“There is a lot to talk about, from how the system is failing savers, to what needs to change so people can have a financially secure future.”
Craig Rickman, pensions expert, Camilla Esmund, senior PR manager, and Saffron Wainwright, PR manager, will also discuss the results.
Lunch is included, with time set aside for questions and networking.
The briefing takes place on 11th September 2025.
