Impacts of LongevityImpacts of Longevity• More benefits needed at retirement– Retirement lasts longer– Exposed to inflation for longer– Increased Medical Costs
• Vulnerability at older ages– Benefits insufficient or depleted
• Increase dependence on alternative support– Work– Family– Government
![Page 12: Longevity and Retirement Funds](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56814786550346895db4b568/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Increasing Medical CostsIncreasing Medical Costs• Health declines with age• Decline starts earlier for manual workers• More healthcare needed each year
• Twice as much at 70 than at 50 (US data)• Medical schemes limit impact• Medical inflation
• Costs are difficult to predict
![Page 13: Longevity and Retirement Funds](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56814786550346895db4b568/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Inflation RiskInflation Risk• 83% of pensioners feel their pension
has not kept up with inflation (OMRFS)
• Some pensioners forfeit inflation protection
• Increasing longevity means more people may feel this more keenly

Loss of family supportLoss of family support• 23% of pensioners receive family
support (OMRFS)• 27% of working people expect their
children to support them in retirement (OMRFS)
• Families can act as an informal annuity market
• Declining birth rate and AIDS may reduce possibility of support

Impact of MortalityImpact of Mortality
• For every 3 25 year olds in your fund, 1 will die before age 65 and 2 will retire
• Trustees have a duty to protect the interests of all members.
• How do you balance retirement and death benefits?
![Page 18: Longevity and Retirement Funds](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56814786550346895db4b568/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Impacts – Bomb 3Impacts – Bomb 3
• Growing burden on the state pension– Growing retired population– Who lives for longer– Increased orphans
• Reducing funding – Large spend versus GDP– Tax pool not growing as fast due to mortality– Poor economy leading to budget deficits (temp)
