We caught up with Maike Currie, VP at digital pension provider PensionBee (LON:PBEE), and a passionate advocate for greater investor education and engagement. She writes a regular column in the Times and has held senior positions at Hargreaves Lansdown and Fidelity International. PensionBee, launched 10 years ago, is seen as a fintech pension disruptor. Maike talks to us about the importance of pension wealth accumulation, and perhaps more surprisingly, about the importance of spending it as well. PensionBee are sponsoring the Breakout Lounge at our Investor Summit conference on Friday 18th September, where Maike is moderating a panel and conducting a Fireside Chat. Come and see Maike Currie in person at the Investor Summit on 18th September 2026. About the Podcast The Investor Summit Green Room is our podcast for active investors.
