Closed Ban workplace or private pensions being considered in divorce settlements

Closed on

People may be relying on their pension to retire comfortably and without leading to poverty, and then the unforeseen could happen and they've lost 50% of their pension, which doesn't allow for a comfortable retirement.

We think allowing pensions to be considered in divorce settlements can lead to unfairness, for example where one party has opted out of their workplace pension.
