Ranging from business owners and finance directors, to accountants and HR professionals, guests from across the county were updated regarding the new rules by specialist guest speaker Ian Price, head of pensions and consultancy for St James’s Wealth Management.

Nick Jones, partner of St. James’s Place Wealth Management of Shrewsbury said: “Although only the larger companies are required to adhere to the new regime at present, these briefings inform people exactly what they will need to do, and when in order to comply with changing legislation.

“Planning ahead can insure that the process is as smooth as possible and we are informing our guests so that they in turn can pass on that knowledge to their own clients.”
