Welcome
This blog is intended to encourage an exchange of ideas and promote debate about the financial issues that arise in a relationship breakdown. The concept is to create a platform for discussion that is not available elsewhere. Aimed mainly at professionals working in this area; lawyers, accountants, financial advisors and actuaries, it is also a potential source of information for the general public.
In our experience there is a significant variance in how professionals handle pension assets in divorce, with little consensus on which methods give the best outcome. We feel this is due in part to a lack of centralised knowledge and debate on what can be a complex issue. We intend to address this by posting our original articles on key subjects, as well as those contributed by others. Our intention is to post quality, discussion-worthy topics at least once a month, or more often if the need arises.
We encourage comments and contributions from all. Comments can be added to the articles on-line, if you would like to submit an article please email us at ancillaryactuary@bradshawdixonmoore.com.
Before leaving a comment, please read our comments policy.

We occasionally publish articles from guest writers. So, when we came across the following article by the pensions guru Steve Bee it was obvious that it would help some of our visitors to understand annuities a little better. With Steve’s kind permission we are publishing the article here.
If you enjoy the style, you may care to visit Steve’s own blog http://www.jargonfreepensions.co.uk/. You will gather that making pensions understandable is just one of Steve’s talents, he is also an acomplished cartoonist!
