This is a TANC event (The Actuarial Network at Cass) sponsored by the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries.
Speaker: Lisa Brüggen, Maastricht University
About the event
Western societies are facing an historically unprecedented development: life expectancies are increasing and birth rates are falling. This puts pension systems around the world under pressure and results in more risks and responsibilities for pension plan participants. However, recent research reveals that retirement readiness, the degree to which an individual is on target to meet her retirement-income goals, is low. Thus, potential pension gaps remain undetected and could have severe consequences for participants once they retire.
Do people behave differently if they are exposed to the sentence “investing in your future pension is becoming even more important” versus “ensuring your future pension is becoming even more important”?
In this talk, Lisa will share her research that looks at finding ways to activate participants. She will also share the key findings of five empirical studies that she conducted in collaboration with pension providers.
