BBC News: fathoming financial terms

Creators & Contributors

Martin Paul Eve and Jake Wilson at the British Library

Surprisingly, I managed to make an appearance in the business section of the BBC News website, of all places.

When I returned from lunch at the British Library last week, a camera crew were asking people to define various jargon terms used in the pension industry. Needless to say, the only quotation they have from me is the one I didn't know: trivial commutation (which I branded as a meaningless piece of unnecessary obfuscation).

Thanks to @lizith for spotting the clip and pointing it out to me. It's online at the BBC News website and I feature at about 2 mins, 34 seconds.

BBC News: fathoming financial terms was originally published by Martin Paul Eve at eve.gd: Martin Paul Eve on January 15, 2011.
