Nigel Vinson
Nigel Vinson is a British businessman.[1]
Vinson was appointed treasurer of the Centre for Policy Studies at its foundation in 1974.[2]
In April 1983, the Centre for Policy Studies published a pamphlet by Vinson, then a deputy chairman of Barclays Bank. Entitled Personal and Portable Pensions for All, it challenged the role of workplace pensions. The concept of personal pensions was taken up by the Conservative Government's review group in the face of opposition from the Labour Party, which argued that they would lead to mis-selling and many would end up worse off.[3]
