Pension splitting and divorce

Abstract

Few people in Britain so far have experienced old age as divorcees, but the proportion of women over 60 who are divorced is expected to increase from 3 percent in 1985 to 13 per cent in 2025. One reason why this is a matter for concern is that changes in women's participation in paid work have not, thus far, secured financial self-sufficiency for all after a divorce.
