The Pensions Regulator has delayed the introduction of automatic enrolment (NEST) for smaller companies with less than 3,000 workers. Their staging dates will be confirmed in 2012. Investors can now carry forward unused pension allowances from 2008/09, 2009/10 and 2010/11, allowing some to contribute more than the annual £50,000 limit. Chartwell Financial Services offers advisory services to help employers and advisers prepare for automatic enrolment reforms.
