In our latest episode, we look at the recent run of government activity in the pensions market - from the Mansion House Accord to the new Pension Schemes Bill. We unpack the detail of these changes and discuss what they might mean for the market - and pension savers more broadly.

We also take a look at the FCA's latest plans to water down fund manager assessment of value reports. We talk about the proposed changes and whether assessments of value did the job that they were introduced to do.
