A presentation given to ILAG on May 8th in which I challenge conventional thinking on pension dashboards

1. Pension Dashboards
Will they deliver to
the hype?
May 2018

2. The Hype
Find your pensions
See your pensions on one screen
Clarity on their options

3. The skeptical view
Overpay to view
Complex messaging
Savings not spending focused

4. 1. Pot consolidation is critical
for consumers and providers
• DWP estimate 50m
abandoned pots by 2050
• PPI estimate £20bn
unclaimed pension assets
today
• Average Master Trust pot
<£500
2. Consumer confidence
undermined by lack of
information
• Where’s my money?
• How’s it done?
• How can I spend it?
What’s at
stake?

5. Industry business
model
• Centralised
• Governmental
• Exclusive
• Protectionist
• Regressive

6. Accepts centralized
governance and pension
finder service
Rejects constraints of trade
and protectionism (industry
model)
Open data architecture;
everyone can use APIs and
authenticators
Relies on common data
standards
Disrupts established
business models.
Pentech
= open pensions
