Hargreaves in discussions over Tisa membership

Hargreaves Lansdown is in talks to join the Tax Incentivised Savings Association (Tisa) following the body’s successes over platform re-registration and small pension pot reform.

Hargreaves is currently a member of just one trade body, the Association of Member Directed Pension Schemes, which works on behalf of Sipp providers.
McPhail said Tisa represented a much wider range of financial services interests, and its work on platform re-registration and involvement in the reform of small pension pot transfers made it more attractive
