**Agenda**

1. Baroness Altmann is our headline speaker. Baroness Altmann, the former Pensions Minister at the [Department for Work and Pensions](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Department_for_Work_and_Pensions), is a leading UK pensions expert, and political campaigner, politically independent, championing ordinary people and social justice. She will give her views on the Woodford failures and the implications for people’s income in retirement when they lose a large part of their investment portfolio.
2. Robin Powell will give his assessment of what went wrong and provide an update on the latest developments
3. Leigh Day lawyer Meriel Hodgson-Teall will review the legal case against Link, the application for a Group Litigation Order (GLO) and the next steps. These will include statements of case, disclosure, expert evidence, negotiation, case preparation, settlement or case trial, and the deadline for signing up.
4. Cliff Weight, ShareSoc Woodford Campaign will review the 4 legal claims ongoing (and their merits), and the potential for other claims
5. Q&A – Panel

**Event Information:** £1bn of savings were lost by investors in the Woodford Equity Income Fund. The FCA has spent more than three years investigating what went wrong and has still not published any findings. It has, however, produced new guidance for Authorised Fund Managers, the role that Link was supposed to do and allegedly failed to do. There are at least 4 legal claims being pursued: 2 against Link and 2 against Link and Hargreaves Lansdown. ShareSoc has endorsed the Leigh Day claim against Link in respect of WEIF investors.

These and other questions will be addressed in our webinar on July 19th, which will include a Q&A session with the speakers, chaired by ShareSoc Director, Mark Northway.
