The final Luminary in-person event of the year is underway here in London!

In London today presenting at #AJBellLuninary I’m covering the government’s desire to drive pension investment in UK plc, and what this means for advisers and clients. Great location and epic group of inspiring women (and men). My favourite day of the year. @Investcentre

@IanMarcusChapma @AJBMoneyMatters Hi Ian. The average men's ISA (including cash and S&S) is worth £3,000 more than the average women's (HMRC data). Multiplied up that's £6.6bn. Hope that helps.
Had a good day in London yesterday. Started with breakfast at House of Lords discussing @AJBMoneyMatters research on ISA investment gap. And ended watching Bridget Jones.
Looking forward to hearing this interview.
Thanks to Carl Emmerson @TheIFS for coming on the show
