National Information Centre on Retirement Investments
National Information Centre on Retirement Investments
The National Information Centre on Retirement Investments (NICRI) is a free, independent, confidential service which aims to improve the level and quality of investment information provided to people with modest savings who are investing for retirement or facing redundancy.
Gathering information to make an informed investment decision can be difficult. Relevant information is not always readily available or available at a reasonable cost. Keeping up to date can be difficult as the investment industry is constantly changing with new investment products continually becoming available.
Changes not only occur to investment products but to legislation, social security and veterans affairs rules and taxation laws.
The role of NICRI is to help provide up to date independent information to assist people to make the best possible investment decisions they can.
NICRI does not give investment advice, recommend financial products or planners or undertake casework. The objectives of our organisation are:
to provide an accessible, independent source of information concerning financial and investment products of importance to investors
To research and publish items on consumer issues relevant to the financial welfare of investors
To promote community awareness, particularly amongst retirees, of consumer investment issues
To examine any unfairness in the market between consumers and providers of investment services
To have a role in government policy making in respect of investment issues
And to liaise with relevant consumer, retiree, academic and industry groups, as well as government departments, for the purpose of furthering these objectives.
