CP16/15: Capping early exit pension charges

The Financial Conduct Authority proposes rules to cap early exit charges in certain pension contracts following a statutory duty introduced by the Chancellor. This consultation specifically addresses charges incurred by consumers accessing pension freedoms at or after age 55 before their expected retirement date. The proposals exclude other lifetime charges and do not apply to consumers who have already exited their policies early.
