We have a new government, unexpected clarity and a clear view on the policy agenda which will be forthcoming from a majority elected Conservative government able to implement its manifesto. But what will it all mean for you and your clients?
On Friday (15 May) at midday, make sure you visit FTAdviser to join a live Q&A with our panel of experts and find out what they think about the Labour defeat, the SNP rout in Scotland, and policies which will follow the return of David Cameron to Number 10.
In particular we would like to hear from you on the pressing questions facing the government on financial services regulation, the future direction of pensions and how it will approach general taxation and housing, among other key issues.
Alan Higham, retirement director at Fidelity Worldwide Investment and George Bull, senior tax partner at Baker Tilly, will be on hand to answer your questions. We’ll also feature a range of interactive polls and comments and analysis from across the sector.
Ahead of the debate please submit advance questions for the panel or share your thoughts about what the result of the general election will mean for the financial services industry by emailing emma.hughes@ft.com.
As a result of Mr Cameron gaining a majority in the House of Commons can we now expect swift delivery of an annuity re-sale market, a buoyant pound and more assistance for first-time buyers to get onto the property ladder?
You can also shape Friday’s debate and have your say on the outcome of this year’s knife-edge general election – were you sad to see former pensions minister Steve Webb MP go or just glad the Mansions Tax isn’t on the cards?
You can also submit your thoughts on what our experts have to say by typing in our comment box or by tweeting during the debate using the hashtag #FTAElectionDebate.
