HSBC calls for pension saving among women

HSBC concurs with the Prudential's calls for women to be more vigilant in saving early and often for a comfortable financial future.

Research carried out by the group indicates that 60 per cent of women are not contributing to a pension.

HSBC also found that many women were unclear about certain deals of pension planning.

While 44 per cent of women thought they had to be working to make pension contributions, just over a third did not realise that a pension can be contributed to by others.

Ian Martin, head of pensions and retirement income for HSBC, said: "At HSBC we are working hard to get the message across to everybody that retirement planning should start sooner rather than later and we are seeing positive signs that people are taking pension provision more seriously - but as current research shows, there is still a long way to go."

Earlier this week research released by Prudential also showed that women are less prepared for retirement than men.
