In this episode of the FT Adviser Editor's Podcast, we examined the problem of, and solutions for, deforestation. We have all seen reports of devastation caused by widescale, and often illegal, deforestation around the globe.

Letters of Authority are still the bane of advisers and clients. Even pledges during the pandemic years to improve automation and processing times have fallen by the wayside, as some advisers have reported to FT Adviser delays of months - six months in once case - in getting clients transferred to and set up with providers, due to issues caused by delays in letters of authority. 2025 must be the year when this appalling lack of service and outdated processing comes to an end. And here to talk with FT Adviser's Simoney Kyriakou about their campaign is Scott Phillips, founder and chief of The Pension Lab and one of the founder members of The Fix LoA (Letters of Authority) Action Group - FLAG for short.
