Weekly Wrap: Budget bonanza

Good Returns has in-depth coverage of the Budget as it relates to the savings industry – not just one story, along with copies of some of the key Budget documents explaining the changes. In addition to this we have posted some of the responses from various industry groups into the Features section so you can see first hand what others are thinking.

The two other themes to come through in this week’s News is a follow-up on the status of APB talks and the launch of a new platform/support service for advisers.

Sticking with APBs first. Many people responded to the Blog on the collapse of the G4 APB concept – you can read a selection of comments in the Blog. Keep sending in your feedback as it is important for all readers of Good Returns to understand what advisers and industry players are thinking.
