4 Pension Freedom Day: 6 April 2015 As pension minister Steve Webb said after the freedoms were introduced, you can go out and buy a Lamborghini if you want. Webb raised the prospect of people in their 50s and 60s splashing out on the Italian sports cars, which can cost over 300,000, amid an intense debate over Osborne's decision to introduce the most far-reaching reform of the taxation of pensions since The Guardian 20 March 2014, 4 April 2015
5 Pension Freedom Day: 6 April 2015 I think this is fantastic, that now I can just take a lump sum and the money that I get, I can do whatever I want with that money We might get a new little car, get a smaller car. So might use it not all of it, but some of it for that, and then I ll invest the rest for a couple of years to see how we go. Consumer Interview February 2015
6 Pension Freedom Day: 6 April Flexible access to pensions from age 55 Total freedom over how they take an income or lump sum from pension - Take whole fund as cash in one go, 25% tax free, rest taxed as income - Take smaller lump sums, 25% tax free, rest taxed as income - Take up to 25% tax free and a regular taxable income from the rest 2. Access to impartial guidance Pension Wise - Provided by Citizens Advice Bureau, Pension Advisory Service 3. Restrictions on how much to contribute to private pensions after withdrawals 4. 55% pension death tax abolished 5. Death after buying an annuity: tax cut 6. Transferring a DB pension 7. Retirement ages to increase from 55 to 57 from 2028 on 8. Contribution allowance increase for 2015/16, additional 40, Contribution restriction for high earners from 2016/17
7 Pension Freedom Day: Challenges Low financial literacy among the older population Questions about inflation, risk diversification, compound interest; low levels especially among women, with regard to (Lusardi 2012) Estimating life expectancy correctly Generally, expectancy to live to 75 or 85 close to average probabilities in the population (Hurd 2009) If underestimated by only 4 years, only state pension remains, resulting in average replacement rates of less than 50% (Brancati and Franklin 2015) Focus on financial pressures of the moment, neglecting financial planning Self-control and financial planning skills needed to preserve savings (Mullainathan and Shafir 2009); current evidence of defaults from U.S. reverse mortgage market Materialistic orientation in society Materialists think they will be happier through buying consumer goods, but rarely are, and often regret it (Richins 2004)
8 Pension Freedom Day: Research Questions 1. What is the percent of people who decide to take a lump sum payout? 2. What is the percent that is planning to blow the pot? 3. How to lump-sum takers differ from those who don t plan to take a lump sum? 4. What are the characteristics of people who are unsure about taking a lump sum? 5. How are lump-sum takers planning to use lump sum payouts?

14 Financial Distress in Older Age: Mental Models What barriers do older adults in Europe face for making informed financial decisions? Mental model interviews with 45 adults aged 65 and older Residents of Germany, the Netherlands, and the U.K. in 2014 and 2015 Examples of challenges to pension literacy, voiced in our Dutch interviews Understanding the technicalities of pensions Not reading information well More clarity at beginning of work life Annual pension statement during work life provides only basic information Lack of data on pension savings: This will be your monthly pay Assumption that income in retirement is about the same as work income Miscalculating pension contributions (stopped worked too early) Suspicion that pension calculations is incorrect (too low) Two to three-month gap before pension starts (needed stretch loan ) Keeping up with changes to government savings vehicles (annuity product) Dealing with investment risk of private insurance
15 Financial Distress in Older Age: Three-Country Survey Confirming mental model interviews through a survey of older adults in Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom in October 2015 Predictors: Objective and subjective debt burden Moderator/Mediators: Family support Food security, material deprivation Financial literacy and management skill Loneliness, depression, coping strategies Outcomes: Physical and mental health Collaborators: Wändi Bruine de Bruin, Simon McNair, and Barbara Summers Centre for Decision Research, Leeds University Business School, U.K.

19 Highlights Pension freedoms in the U.K. Allow older adults to decide about the use of pension savings. Survey results support challenges voiced in policy debates: underestimating life expectancy, present bias, materialistic focus Pension literacy is higher among lump sum takers Mental model interviews Identify key challenges of financial decision-making in older age: family support, financial management skill, psychological strength They are expected to influence mental and physical health Panel and cross-sectional surveys Insights into economic and medical facets of indebtedness in older age Collaboration with credit reporting agency; longitudinal aging study Reverse mortgages Increasingly popular financial product to provide older adults with liquidity but cannot prevent financial hardship in the long term
