15 A planned retirement? 15

16 If we knew it would simplify income advice significantly! for an average 60 year old Male, life expectancy currently is approximately 25 years for an average 60 year old Female, life expectancy currently is approximately 30 years for an average couple age 60 years, life expectancy currently is approximately, 35 years Based on PA(90) mortality tables, assuming that they reflect mortality rates in 1990 and then assuming 2.5% improvement in mortality rates thereafter. How long will your clients live? 16

17 ASSUMING that we’re using a sustainable drawdown on the living annuity to compare. “Individuals cannot self-insure to protect from this longevity risk, and without annuitization they are obliged to plan for a long lifespan … because of mortality credits and the ability of the annuity provider to make payouts based on life expectancy rather than maximum lifespan.” Deciphering the Annuity Puzzle Practical Guidance for Advisors By Wade Pfau July 24, 2012 Living annuity implications 17

18 18 AGENDA The current income advice framework Income options for clients Living annuities unpacked

19 19 Living Annuities (LA) Strengths Income flexibility Transparency Investment choice Bequest Motive Weakness Income not Guaranteed Investment Market Risks No Longevity Protection Behavior Gap Conservative portfolios Opportunities Guaranteed Funds in LA Composite Annuities Hybrid Annuities Threats Legislation Decreasing Expectations of Real Returns on Growth Assets Improving Life Expectancies

20 Strengths Income Guaranteed for Life Investment Market Risk No Longevity Risk 20 Guaranteed Annuities (GA) Weakness Generally no upside market potential (except for with-profit) Death Benefits Limited (Joint Life, Guaranteed Term, CPO) Opportunities With-Profit/Bonus Escalation Option provides exposure to upside of investment markets with no downside risks Composite Annuities Threats Living Annuities –Multiple advice points –Initial and ongoing Advice Fees on LA but only Initial Advice Fees on GA Improving Life Expectancies

21 Clients who –have reason to believe that their life expectancy will be short due to poor health or immediate family history. –want to be able to alter the income that they draw annually. –are prepared to take the risk that poor market performance will negatively impact on future income from their investment. –Want any remaining fund benefits going to their beneficiaries on death. –are prepared to take the risk that their retirement capital may reduce, and therefore their income may be insufficient, especially if they draw too much income early on. –wish to have the ability to change the investments funds they hold. 21 Who should purchase Living Annuities?

22 Emotions at play CONTROL –It’s my money POTENTIAL –The market will perform RICH –I love to look at my balance LIFE EXPECTANCY –I’ll never get to 90 TRUST –I can manage my money What do clients say? 22

23 Clients who –want a guaranteed income as long as they and/or their partner are alive. –want their income to be guaranteed against any market movements. –want to maximise the income available to them and/or their partner rather than leave money to other beneficiaries on death. –are prepared to sacrifice their capital in exchange for a stream of payments, where the value they receive depends on their and/or their partners lifespan and current bond yields –do not wish to take risks with their retirement income. 23 Who should purchase Guaranteed Annuities?

24 Composite annuity –Combination of Living and Guaranteed Annuity in one contract Hybrid annuity –Living Annuities that convert to guaranteed annuities on pre-defined terms when Living Annuity assets run out Deferred annuitisation –Living annuity is converted to a guaranteed annuity once acceptable/improved guaranteed rates are available 24 What other options do clients have?

25 The current income advice framework Income options for clients Living annuities unpacked –What factors influence your client’s drawdown rate? –What is an ideal LA drawdown rate? –How can I manage LA income volatility? –How long should I plan for the LA income to last? 25 AGENDA

26 How much do you really need to live on? –Drawing as little as you can manage initially improves the chance of providing you with a sustainable income in future. –Budget and see what you really need in order to live on next year. How much can your investment sustain? –If the income you draw, plus ongoing charges, is greater than the growth on your investment, your capital will diminish. What factors influence the drawdown? 26

27 What is an ideal LA drawdown rate? Source: Old Mutual Retirement Income Safety Plan 27

28 Growth assets are required to ensure that: –retirement capital is not eroded, AND –income is protected against inflation Low volatility is preferred to minimise the risk of drawing an income from a depressed fund value Can I achieve this in a single fund? How can I manage LA income volatility? 28

29 Growth assets usually mean volatility. Sequence of returns is unpredictable! 29

30 Growth assets usually mean volatility. Volatility impairs income sustainability! 30

34 Full living annuity income flexibility and investment features Investment and drawdown experience affects timing and level of move to the Guaranteed Annuity phase Living annuity “Rescue” is only triggered if living annuity income is too high relative to Safety Level Safe Income then kicks in for life Guaranteed annuity How long should I plan for the LA income to last? 34

35 SAFETY PLAN SAFETY Threshold levels – used to reward ongoing drawdown behaviour Threshold levels – used to reward ongoing drawdown behaviour Safe Income – used to set the initial Safe Income guaranteed level

36 Plan for higher inflation, lower investment returns and clients to live longer! Living Annuities, Guaranteed Annuities, Composite Annuities and Hybrid Annuities all have a place in the post-retirement environment and meet different client needs. Client needs are often conflicting and it is not easy for one specific solution to meet all the client’s needs and therefore trade-offs need to be made. There seems to be a significant under-utilisation of Composite and Hybrid Annuities. Summary 36
