There is also a timing issue - pointed out in the #ftweekend . It is at least plausible that #uk share prices will decline sharply in the near future as the #AI bubble bursts. It would make far more sense to encourage #nationalsavings and even bring back the ability to purchase #gilts over a #postoffice counter. However nobody will be lobbying for any of that!

The irony is that a return to defined benefit schemes would ease the #uk government's supposed funding problem by increasing demand for lower risk assets such as #gilts ! Odd that #torstenbell cannot see this!
