Following a new YouGuv survey, conducted in conjunction with The
Hartford, 47% of respondents aged 55 or over are "very concerned"
or "fairly concerned" about the effect of the credit crisis on
their pension.
This figure fell to 38% and 32% respectively in the age brackets
45-54 and 35-44. 21% of respondents said that they would be willing
to pay an annual charge to ensure that their pension pot did not
decrease, irrespective of the market.
