Annual Lecture 2022
In Jasmine’s roles as a TV and radio financial expert, as the Daily Mail’s ‘Miss Moneysaver’ columnist and editor of MoneyMagpie.com, she is constantly asked questions about money and consumer issues, often surprisingly basic ones. This gives her a special insight into what the UK consumer is thinking and worrying about when it comes to their money and also how much (or usually how little) they understand of the financial tools that they have at their disposal, including, of course, pensions. Jasmine will be the ‘voice of the people’ at our conference, relaying verbally and through video ‘vox pops’, what customers are really thinking about their financial situation, about the country’s economic outlook and what help they really need to navigate their way through the current cost-of-living crisis.
