The Government's Stakeholder Pension reform has improved incentives for some groups to save in private pensions, and this has offset a general downwards trend in private pension coverage. The largest impact seems to have been on those with low earnings, rather than the middle earners who were the primary target group for the policy. These are the main findings of new IFS research, financed by the Economic and Social Research Council, which will be presented at the Royal Economic Society Conference in Nottingham on Tuesday 22nd March.
