Retirement and protection provider LV= has axed the drawdown fee for new customers as part of a pension charging overhaul.

Adviser tech firm O&M, part of fintech Iress, is to provide free CPD-qualifying webinars on drawdown for advisers.

Pensions drawdown investors have seen positive growth in four out of the five years since the Pension Freedoms arrived in 2015, according to a new study.
