answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/04/2018 answer text <p>The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) sets the overall conduct standards for asset managers, including the requirement to treat customers fairly. The FCA has a broad suite of supervision and enforcement powers, to ensure financial services businesses comply with their rules.</p><p> </p><p>Following a comprehensive Market Study, the FCA have published new rules and guidance, aimed at driving better competition in the sector and allowing customers to find better value services. Specifically, the new regulations will require firms to publicly report on whether clients should be moved to lower cost share classes, where they are invested in more expensive classes which are otherwise the same. They will also make it easier for investors to be switched on to less costly management options by removing the need to secure express consent from investors.</p> answering member constituency Salisbury answering member printed John Glen question first answered 23/04/2018 15:53:49 answering member 4051 label Biography information for John Glen

uin	136429
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/04/2018 answer text <p>The pension flexibility rules allow individuals with money purchase pension savings to withdraw lump sums as they wish from age 55.</p><p>Individuals can now choose whether to take the entire funds in one lump sum, 25% of which is tax free and 75% taxable at their marginal rate of income tax as pension income. If they would prefer to take their savings in a number of smaller amounts, 25% of each payment is tax free and 75% taxable.</p><p>Pension income is taxable under PAYE. If the pension payer has a tax code from HMRC they should operate that code in the normal way. If no tax code is held, the emergency code should be used. The emergency code gives a 1/12 of the personal allowance and each of the tax bands.</p><p>If this means that the individual pays more tax than is ultimately due, HMRC have put in place a process for individuals to submit an in year claim for the overpaid tax. These claims are usually paid within 30 days. Anyone who does not make a claim, would automatically receive any overpaid tax after HMRC makes their annual reconciliation of individual tax records.</p> answering member constituency Central Devon answering member printed Mel Stride question first answered 23/04/2018 15:38:02 answering member 3935 label Biography information for Mel Stride
