Watson Wyatt examines the importance of the age pension as a vital part of post-retirement income for most Australians and how its characteristics need to be considered when planning how to invest other retirement savings, such as account-based pensions. This View examines questions such as:
* How valuable in the age pension?
* Is the age pension too significant to ignore in planning for
retirement?
* How does the age pension help to address longevity and
investment risks in retirement?
* What combined income (age pension plus account-based pension)
can be expected?
This is particularly topical with the Harmer review of the age pension currently in progress.
